It's Time to Dwell with the Wolf

I used to tease my kids, telling them things that were not real and getting them to believe it, before telling them it was a joke.  This backfired when my little daughter refused to eat an ice cream cone that I told her was safe to eat - convinced that I was trying to get her to eat cardboard.  I had turned myself into a wolf in sheep's clothing, a dad that was not to be believed.  We look at the use of the wolf in the Bible, as a symbol of brutal attack on us physically and spiritually.  We consider various Bible passages, from Jesus' warning about those wolves in sheep's clothing to Isaiah, who predicted a time when we would live with the wolf.  We consider the fact that it is time to do so - despite our society declaring Christians as inherently evil.
