Further, on Kyle
As put forth in this article on the four types of man's heart (unresponsive, impulsive, preoccupied, responsive) and the response of each to God's Word, which of these is Kyle ?
Consider the impulsive heart: it commits eagerly to the Word when first received but with no real root of commitment. When the Resister brings attractive allurements as substitute, they too are readily accepted, crowding out the original decision. Could this apply to Kyle ? Impulsively accepting of the Way as a child (perhaps due to the power demonstrated by one of God's mighty men of war, power which Kyle desired for himself), the Resister seeks to accelerate his capitulation to the 'dark side' by advancing his departure for service in the capital city ?
