The Agta people in the northern Philippines recognize this. They use the word "madagat" to describe the Word of God. "Madagat" can mean stinging, venomous, or potent. A poisonous snake is "madagat." On the other hand, doctors have discovered that the venom of some poisonous snakes make good medicine for heart patients. The Word of God is "madagat." If we disregard it, it is like the bite of a poisonous snake. But if we live by it, it gives us life just like the medicine used by heart patients.
