In a world that is unwilling to define a man (or a woman), the Word of God not only defines the man but it refines the man. And that is why the biblical man puts away that which is childish and puts on that which is courageous. "When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things" (1 Corinthians 13:11).
