The Illusion of Choice
- Matt would give his kids silly restaurant choices on road trips, like "Crazy Louie's Jars of Fermented Farts."
- This created a humorous illusion of choice, as the real goal was always In-N-Out Burger.
Paul's Rhetorical Strategy
- Paul uses a similar strategy in Galatians 3, presenting two contrasting options: following the law or believing in Jesus.
- The undesirable option is the law, while belief is the desirable one, mirroring Matt's restaurant game.

- He emphasizes the foolishness of relying on human effort after beginning with the spirit.
