Meekness and Self-Control

204.463 - 238.505 R.C. Sproul

And that's really what we're talking about with respect to meekness. Now, gentleness or meekness in biblical categories do not exclude the possibility of strength. In fact, in a very real sense, they presuppose strength. We see that meekness is a characteristic of God himself. The God who is omnipotent, the God whose strength is transcendent, tempers that strength by gentleness or by tenderness.
