Today the New-age version of Jesus is very popular within society in general. Why is this? During the 19th century there was a cure for hooping cough which said you cut off the hair of the person with the cough and fed it to a dog found in a church graveyard. There is still a power accoisated with the church but it was wraped in supperstion. Why is this? During the dark ages people would buy supposed bits of the cross, apostles bones ect. Why is this?
My thought is this: we have lost the mystery of our faith over the generations. We are so badly want answers that we have neglected truth. We so want to understand what type of road we are walking on (what its made of, how long it is, ect) that we have forgoten the destination. There are just to many neatly packaged thoughts in these times. Examples inclued:
- Five point calvinism
- The purpose driven model
- Pre,post,a millenism.
There are to many explanations of the "operation and function of the trinity". It is good for us to discuss things together in community. It is good and healthy for us to have our own views so that we can understand things. But let us not forget that there is a Mysterious aspect to our faith which people need in there lives. People dont want all the answers people want genuine relationships. Am i talking like a man with three eyes or is what im saying right? Please help us out.
