Contemplative Bible Reading

Titus 3:10 (New International Version)

10 Warn a divisive person once, and then warn him a second time. After that, have nothing to do with him.

This verse struck me this afternoon. Three strikes, and the person is out.

I don’t know if this is the origin of three strikes in baseball. It seems that way to me. Much of western culture comes from passages in the Bible. This seems as good an explanation as any.
