Getting back the dynamic of real faith
The greatest cause of which captivity and the decay of the faith and this blindness where in we are now. sprang first of the allegories.
For Origen and the doctors of his time drew all the scripture unto allegories: whose example that came after followed so long, till they last for got the order and process of the text, supposing the scripture served but to feign allegories upon; insomuch that twenty doctors expound one text twenty ways as children make decent on plain song. Then came our sophisters with their analogical and chopological sense, and with an antitheme of half an inch, out of which some of them drew a thread nine days long . quoting Tyndale.
Which I could not agree with more, as an ecclesia the function is purely relational with JESUS always.
These alternative methods have muddied the waters of being spirit led and the effects there of with the hypnotic effects of philosophy being so addictive,(North) . Along with power and wealth placed real faith under siege in the former covenant practices. Eeven with protestants who merely renamed the ole forms, which kept the hierarchal forms for themselves, know full well that was not to be..their origins were not scriptural but altered in text, and emphasis, for their existence is challenged by Tyndale, others since have done so .
In one sense one might say the Hegelian dialect was created in it's action political effect transferred over to the faith .
Effect was applied in order to create conflict and compromise, the real question of truth is until recently more likely to be spoke by Barna etc, the desire is to return to a community of faith without the secular power structures or forms in some cases esoteric origins used which were not endorsed by Christ in his ministry of servitude and truth.
Were not able to regain the true ecclesia by design, in having done so. As it is and was, but while others selected to take the risk for truth I to joined for the purpose of the fullness over the divided .... In which the people were his temple and treated as such, that their were no mediums whether they be institutions or offices but as servants of love and the ability to discern spiritually over the drive for economic power or political entrée. Elder ship was function of spiritual maturity not physco babble or Greek philosophy, but one as being conscious of being led of the spirit and nurtured in faith and maturity as servants.
Thanks .

The Father’s heart breaks to see the destruction of His creation. His creation is meant for joy and peace, not sorrow and destruction. We are at war, and I wish more of us knew how adamant the devil is to divide and conquer. The drug epidemic is indicative of how much we forget our value. I can’t speak to drug addiction cuz I haven’t done any, just enjoy beer. (Now that’s a death sentence many have sentenced themselves to for decades). Point is, we are prone to run to or get pulled into destructive stuff. Gosh! The things that bring life are so simple, but it seems the things we rely on besides God are endless!
ReplyDeleteI think the church has been losing its light ever sense Jesus ascended. He left the Holy Spirit to comfort us and guide us into all truth. So as we read God’s Word and spend time with Jesus, we have the Holy Spirit to help us understand our world and the people in it.
A verse that keeps my hope alive - Psalm 27: 13 I would have despaired unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.
