Jesus [46] The Meaning of Jesus: Two Visions (32)
Continuing our summary/review of Tom Wright and Marcus Borg's discussion...

These brief excerpts are meant to provoke thought/reflection...
The final word from Tom Wright:
'Once we focus both history and faith on Jesus of Nazareth... we may perhaps
find that creation, sacraments, human life, politics, history, and faith
come rushing together in new integrations for which as yet we have no
language but worship. That, too, seems to me to possess the ring of truth.

Suddenly lights disappeared. I discover that Blackouts throughout Singapore
today.
Christian's departure in the day of Rapture could be likening to
it.Sudden.Short and sharp.
By not getting ready, all regrets and recriminations would be too late. I
suspect in eternity, no one will ever feel the loss and grief for loved
ones, and God promises all that the former things shall remember no more.
The cries and weeping from the nether world would be confined to their
spheres, and they would be taught no lessons anymore.
No one will ever care for the lost cause, in eternity. It was written," It
is a fearful thing to fall under hands of God".
Matthew 24 has been the focus for serious minded believers. The words of
Jesus were so fearful, and his prophecies threaten every lifestyle known in
our secular world. No human being would be able to sleep peacefully, nor
rest with contentment.
Christians preparing to depart from this Earth has now spanned to 2000 over
years.
No one ever issue warnings to people that contain severity like that of the
Lord Jesus.

chance, here is what you should do.

Given that infra-red arial photographs of Jerusalem's Temple mound (as
per the History International Channel's program "the Naked
Archeologist) suggest the foundations of the Jewish Temple actually lie
buried _between_ the two mosques present there (and _not_ on the site
of the Dome of the Rock), should Israel be finally allowed rebuild the
Temple there?
