It is difficult to miss the half page Massey University advertisement in the Weekend Herald today, August 21, 2010.

The ad begins with a quote from Nelson Mandela:

“EDUCATION IS THE MOST POWERFUL WEAPON YOU CAN USE TO CHANGE THE WORLD.”

Thinking about the quote I looked up ‘education’ in The Collins Concise Dictionary: “the act or process of acquiring knowledge.”

That was really a great help.  Education is the act of acquiring knowlede.

Acquiring knowledge about God, about the God of the Bible!
