Who is your favorite person in the Bible? and why?

[lynnc35]

Who would your favorite person be in the Bible? Who do your most attribute yourself to in the Bible? and why? This is a three part question...

David is my favorite person in the bible because he was a man after God's heart. Everytime he messed up, he went to God for forgiveness.

Job.  He went through so many trials and losses and in the end he was rewarded for the pain and suffering.  I have been through more than my share of heartaches and I have used him as my example to know that you can weather anything that life throws my way.

     Jesus would be my favorite person in the Bible.  I think it would have been so great to have been a disciple and known Him the way that they did (although I don't envy the way that any of the disciples died).  
     It would have been something to have witnessed the miracles, His humor, His intelligence, kindness, patience and love while He was here on earth in the flesh.  To be able to ask Him anything, to see His reaction to things, to hear His views/thoughts on things--- it would have been a really special time.  
     I strive to be like Him, I think it's the only way to be.

Ruth is my favorite.  Her loyalty amazes me.  My heart breaks for Dinah.  As for who I am the most like?  I couldn't say, honestly.

I would have to say Ruth, also.  She never quit and was so loyal to her mother-in-law.  She chose God over her own religion and is a beautiful example of a Godly woman.

Other than Jesus, I must agree with thomassina...David.
