Say To
Get Jesus sounds a bit of a joker if looking up close and statements. While he gets the nod of respect from most all. Into; intrinsic-best exists, he's quoted as an example. The way to get around claiming too far is to suggest some are loving heights which man presumed/lived said. While the rest lobbed on and fiction. Isn't God-unique directed communication through text and all tumble into magical realism. God giving approximations of supposed being an unknowable self. So... 'other' we ain't meeting. Jesus special but not unique, or of/in the triune God.
All should stand or we have to suggest God failed to get this to us, as would seem, want.
Plant a Seed/me -- believe Bible-books (not Apocrypha) are God-given and the only combo of words defined by God as. The proviso; in full of human influence and needs context and questioning -- yet, more than able to 'do' what's needed. Open to a touch of God in their delivery and reception, all depends on how and who sees. We change reality by looking at is a pop. line and quantum observation.
Applies most profound and here. This catalogue of symbols and sounds -- Bible words -- about matters of the heart. Three sides: the words themselves -- our heart toward/aka seeking -- and pray could inc. prophesy into/about.
Tried to call this 'You Can Say' but that's gone. Used during a brief 'word-alone period'. Ought'r go back look at and dig out for rewinds. The words themselves have power -- so-say... them. Them-selves.
The graphics/colours and shapes, are not putting them on a pedestal to show-off. They're not icons. Which, in classic Orthodox-like terms, have a value but here-be tools for the trade. They're unspoken sermons. For surrounding truth-talk and rooting into. Anointing sight...
Leaving unexplained (this post... m'mean) and dashing off. Should try a Truthscoop and time tight, plus gagging to fast but pray.
Jesus said say to and....' Bonk-ers? Oh I know.... doesn't 'really' mean and literal. Thing is, does use; metaphor, hyperbole, apocalyptic genre, primary symbolic, all those similies and contain questionable historic documentation. Yet... there are ways to suss when and where not and what? And sometimes is Jesus on the 'don't complicate or faithless slip-away' tip. Like, when asked:
‘Increase our faith'
He replied, ‘If you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mulberry tree, “Be uprooted and planted in the sea,” and it will obey you‘.
Name him a nutter. 'Occam's Razor' this one away?
End with the over-used, most-fame of C.cliche's and Lewis: '...either this man was, and is, the Son of God, or else a madman or something worse. You can shut him up for a fool, you can spit at him and kill him as a demon; or you can fall at his feet and call him Lord and God. But let us not come with any patronizing nonsense about his being a great human teacher. He has not left that open to us. He did not intend to.'
