Regeneration and Judgment Part 4
from Presence: A Global Conversation for a New Earth. Hosted by Doug King
One of the major themes of the God story, handed down for the last 2,000 years, is judgment. We continue to look at what we've done with our understanding of God identity as it relates to judgment. When Christology is made into a religious form its boundaries must be policed. The focus of our thinking becomes tribalistic- who's in, who's out? This, of course requires judgment to insure those who represent God's chosen ones. Starting with the Gentiles in Rome, the end result of this approach over the last 2 millennia is leading to the disintegration of church attendance, the closing of seminaries and the lack of interest shown by the younger generation. Now is the time to ask and seek. Now is the time to reconsider long held views of judgmental, condemning language. Is it possible God's work through Christ offers so much more? Is it possible judgment plays a role in unifying the world by leading to restoration and acceptance for all?
