Freedom

 

Reading theology on the back of a horse in the corral is boring.  gg

God

“The word ‘God’ is not about something more than we are, it is about all that we are. ‘God’ is about understanding the final dimension of our life; it is about a humanity that has been opened to divinity. It is about stepping into eternity while still walking in time. It is about the experience that Paul Tillich called ‘The Eternal Now’.  It is about entering humanity so deeply that we taste eternity and experience what we have traditionally called heaven.”

John Shelby Spong, “Beyond Theism but not beyond God”, as given to us in the Jesus Seminar, “The Future of the Christian Tradition”. (2007), P. 44.

Grow Up!

“There is no true church, no true religion, no infallible Pope, no inerrant Bible.  All of these are the spiritual constructs of frightened, dependent, childlike people of the past, but they have become impediments to maturity, and to human development. They cannot be a part of the Christianity of the twenty-first century.”  

John Shelby Spong, “Beyond Theism but not beyond God”, as given to us in the Jesus Seminar, “The Future of the Christian Tradition”, (2007), p. 38.

Evil

 

…. of the status quo!

"The sciences alone, it seems, have had to drag the churches and synagogues kicking and screaming into the twenty first century."

Robert W. Funk, “An Enlightened Faith for an Enlightened Age”, as given to us in the Jesus Seminar, “The Future of the Christian Tradition”, p.25.

Imagination

Some of us have never been accused of being without imagination. Rather than an insult, this accusation is a compliment for without imagination there is no life, one is already dead. This is the fate or future of traditional doctrinal Christianity.

Moment

The moment has arrived.  That one allusive moment that would shape every other day.  Some people call it destiny, that one allusive moment that was always just around the next corner but until now, had failed to appear.  After all these years, after almost a lifetime, much to my surprise, this moment was just waiting to pounce. Could this moment have appeared at a more appropriate moment?  Maybe, maybe not.

Prophet or Pundit

Being right is its own reward. However, since there is no one to pat me on the back, I shall have to do the honors.  Following the defeat of President Trump in 2020, I posted a warning, fasten your seat belts, the crazies are now running our lives.  No one was listening.

However, the last four years have proved me right.  Biden was only the face of the new administration, traditional democrat politics was dead, the real winner was the radical left crazy progressive politicians who are still taking their marching orders from Barack Obama, our former president who cowardly makes decisions for us hiding behind the blank face of grand paw Joe.

Am I a political prophet, no way, I was only stating the obvious, most of the country had tunnel vision or they were parties to the deception. The media was and is the devil in sheep’s clothing by only reporting what they were told to report.  Journalism is no longer a profession.

Maybe, sleepy time is over. For the sake of our Constitutional Republic, for the sake of our children’s future, may all we citizens join together as Americans. If it happens, that will be a wonder to watch!  

Maybe then I can stop cussing at the TV.
