sometimes there's this .. move on
this blog is, for the most part, a done thingy
i ranted and raved about the mess we're in as 'christianity'
about the role of the leadership in that
and my part in it
and about the fundamentalist cultish approach to things christian
which damaged me and others ..
and too i decried the liberalistic approach that moves God into the hands of humans who want God to fit into their box and be shaped by their science/logic think
as if God is definable by us or by science and logic ..
we're so smart ..
i'm done with that
there's a place for that
and it never ceases to be relevant that the people God places in places of leadership should be upbraided wherever there is insensitivity to the Scriptures and the people ..
they are, after all, shepherds who, by definition, are responsible to represent Jesus to those people
to care for them in Jesus' name ..
that's big
and God treats it as big
Jesus spent much of his energy decrying the abuses of the leaders
it's time for me to shift my line-of-sight
turn towards more positive stuff
looking for edification and building and strengthening and encouragement
i hope it doesn't become another self-help/mushy/mish-mash of dribble
if it does please let me know ..
the focus of Messiah's body is just that ..
to work together to bring to maturity all the members
every one
to the fulness of the measure of Jesus
and it doesn't mean i won't ever again rantandrave ..
thanks for being here
now go here ..
