"Theology,
despite the homicidal urgency christians attach to it,
is yet to save anybody."
What saves us is Jesus, and faith He saved us.
This trust first starts with simply saying ... yes .... to Him.
Our very faintest ... "uh-huh" ..... to His Mystery in us.
..... His Revelation ..... stirring in us.
The theological structures and formulation get in the way.
Moving us from the Spirit back to the mind.
The repertoire of good works entangles us in the physical.
+++++
It's just:
"Uh-uh ... Jesus....."
"I am crucified with You.
I am buried with You.
I am raised with You.
I am new in You."
+++++
Trusting Jesus, ... in what looks for all the world like weakness,
intervention ... that seems indistinguishable from non-intervention.
Paradoxical power ... that is guided by intuition and imagination.
[affirming simplicity with R.F. Capon]
+++++
[for the theologians,
i encourage going after everything Jesus has for us,
it happens in receptive times, without fear.]
