Faith, followers and fundamentalists

In this present climate faith, followers, fear and fundamentalists pervades the backdrop of our daily news digest.

Whether it be the war on terrorism fuelled by international policies or national tensions between ethnic, religious and political groups regarding immigration. All are ultimately vying for an ideological dominance of our world view.

The price and the currency

This Easter many believers are going to be celebrating a festival they know very little about or the meaning of it.

Our collective behaviour is very sheepish, that’s because our leaders are being lead by ungrounded religious doctrines and ideologies. Believers are stuck doing religious activities but miss the Kingdom, not that our preaching and conversation do not highlight the Kingdom in some form but the reality of it is absent in practice and observation.

Calvory

False sacrifices denote the idea that Lent and many other supposedly ‘Christian practices’ have no real substance other than the significance that it is given to it by the participant.

Holy Days

These days most holidays are leisure based but lack the echo of history that God himself has determined for not only his people but for mankind.

Remembrance and Resolution

In the run up to the New Year many people will be searching for the right party to attend; will be preparing to watch the bonfire; or will be singing praises at a night vigil whilst ushering the new day of the New Year.

 

Midlife Crisis

Whilst watching a series of documentaries on Feudalism in Medieval England a statement was said that the average peasant life span was around the age 30-40. I thought wow, that’s pretty short, nowadays that's considered to be mid-life. In fact that’s around the age the so called “mid-life” Crisis kicks in, which for medieval subjects was a more end-life crisis.
