If one was truly separate from the world, they would live like the Amish.
2 Corinthians 16-18
16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you.
18 And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.
1 John 2:15-17
15 Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.
17 And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.
If it is supposed to be, I am not aware of it. All I was told was that you had the thumb, forefinger, and little finger extended, with the ring and middle fingers folded down. I have heard that the hand is supposed to be turned out from you toward the person that you are expressing your affection to. I am not exactly certain of that being the case. My aunt knows sign language and will be able to tell me exactly (provided I remember to ask her when I see her again).
Please do. I used to live with a roommate who had a deaf ministry. She used to show me some of the sign language techniques in an attempt for me to communicate a little with the deaf in the church I was attending at the time. I may be mistaken, but it seems like this motion was to bring the sign up to the left shoulder across the heart and point to the person you love. That would be hard to show in a picture. It's been 30 years since then though....wheew! Time flies.

Sister Falla, I agree. Perhaps I should learn not to be so facetious with my postings.
