Whilst

While men play games, And fight their wars, Christ humbly knocks upon the door, Whilst they shout, Bragg and swear, He softly calls, ‘child are you there?’ While men plot evil under the sun, The rose it blooms, The mouse it crawls, And nature carry’s on. Everything in harmony, But humankind, Plots and devious schemes, It takes the poor man and their dreams, It robs the widow, And…

Hardening and softening

When we talk about the Word of God being a light to our heart, it is actually quite Devestating. For the light of the sun, as Origen states, both melts wax, and dries out Earth. Both are the result of the sun. Yet are opposite effects. *(Origen first principles 3.1.11 translation John Behr) The same verse Origen is explaining ‘He (God) lets rain come of the good and the bad.’ Matt 5v45 The…

Gods regret our regret

Reading Chris Greens post on God and Athanasius I am pondering what it means when we say God regrets. As in Genesis 6v6 ‘And the LORD was sorry that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved in His heart.’ If Gods regret is wholly other than our regret, what does it mean when it says he regrets? Regret means distress and sorrow. But God is a doing God. He does not leave us alone, he is…

The 10 plagues of Egypt, God or what?

When we think of God hardening the heart I think we mistake what is going on. It is not that God is being mean to Pharaoh. But that he is allowing Pharaoh to see that those things HE thinks are might, namely military power , power and his own will as supreme ruler, are actually nothing when compared with the goodness and justice of God. At every turn Pharoah thinks he can beat and crush God. And…

Here……State of decay

How many philosophers, poets, and exiles, How many scapegoats, preachers, rescuers, How many artists, saboteurs, resistance fighters, Look back. We have not learned. As if WW2 was not enough. As if holocaust, atoms bombs, 50 million Russians was not enough. As if Roma, Armenian, Jews, Gays, Communists and more were not enough. As if Palestinian, Black, disabled and poor, Immigrant,…

Death, death and death.

I have been pondering the verse, ‘I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven,’ And thinking what it may mean. I have come so far to the conclusion that the ‘fall,’ happened the moment God created. For that is what happens when God creates. The created needs to realise who it is and Who its creator is and re-turn, to learn what real life is, and not what it currently has; animation. The story of…

Judas. The son of perdition and yet…..

So often I hear the crap about Judas being damned forever. And quite frankly I am sick of it. Because it shows that God holds revenge. That god is NOT the God of the scriptures. (The mercy of the Lord we are told; is everlasting 29 times in one psalm alone….) Are we to believe that this god, who, in this one instance; holds a man, guilty of heinous passions, that other men are guilty of, (Just…

What does existence think of knowledge?

I am currently studying Benjamin Fondane, a Rumanian Jewish Philosopher murdered in Auschwitz, and a disciple of Lev Shestov (also worth reading!) And in my last conversation with my mentor, she gently explained that although I have so much truth and good knowledge, the way I share it makes it null and void, as I put my recipients off with my arrogant attitude. This is know to be true. And I…

Matthew 25v 35-40

I call to my church as I go by……I am poor…..’your fault,’ they say…….they reject Me. I call to my church as they go by…..I am an immigrant, ‘the wrong kind,’ they say……..they reject Me I call to my church as they go by….I am a tramp….they wrinkle their nose in disgust. And walk by. I call to my church as I go by…..I am naked……they avert their eyes from Me. I call to my church as they go…

Paradox and Benjamin Fondane

Today I saw a beautiful set of ornate stars. Except they were not. Because they had no light. The source of power was switched off. Matt 6v23; ‘But when your eye is unhealthy, your whole body is filled with darkness. And if the light you think you have is actually darkness, how deep that darkness is!’NLT Do we truly get that? We are all lights, if we are aware and connected to Love in us. If…

2024

May 2024 be the year that humanity finds herself, May 2024 be the year we begin to turn guns into plough shares, Stop the military machine of the world and begin to sow peace, May it be a year of healing weeping, of confession, of turning around, May it be a year of seeing each other as One people, And stopping the division that threatens us all, May it be a year of building homes, water…

And. The restorative power of love in an either/or world book review

The book is written by Felicia Muriel. Who I had the honour too meet at a conference a few years ago. This is the review I wrote for good reads. And it bears repeating! I receive an ARC copy (free copy to review before it is released) Which I had chosen to sign up for as part of the asking to be on launch team for it. I met Felicia and she is just like her book. I was in bits sobbing over a…

Marleys redemption

Why a ghost? He has no substance because he never lived any. Dying to ego is what brings substance, because it is that, done through and with Christ, that is preparing our resurrection! What holds him to earth are the very money boxes he held so tightly. Our sin has consequences. And when we can no longer deal with them by mortal surrender we see the truth when we pass on; others suffered…

The hand that fires the bullet feels it’s hatred

Do not deny, when dead, they are gone. There is no return, no matter who, Money will not save you, Nor position or power, Once dead, here, we are no more. Here we are not even an imprint, Some brick a brac, given to a charity shop, Some photos only a few might remember who is who, Some memory, that quickly fades, Men, woman, child, babe, all go into the dust. Who cares at their…
