A
neat/nike 'word' coined in Symbol has to do with what I call 'Warriors of
Light'. It takes off from the use in medieval times of cathedrals as
solar observatories. Holes would be punched in the roof of a cathedral,
and the positions of the lights charted on the floor of the cathedral.
The
new, improved Warriors of Light takes off from the fact that WE are the
light. Start with JBJ's 49-book Bible from 'Rethinking the Order of the
Old Testament'.
Two
things are done. 1--Sit as the books, in a 7x7 grid. The neat thing
here, the word coined in Symbol, the Language, is that WE are the
Jubilee. If you want 50 instead of 49, add the pastor.
2--Each
book/seat/person writes 1/2 a page/a page about how the sermon is
seen/heard/acted upon from the perspective of that book.
Put
these together, and you have something to show prospective members about what
your church does in this way. The main thing is that each one teaches the
others, and as people sit in the formation of the Bible, WE are the Bible and
the Jubilee.
Love
in King Jesus,
Chuck
PS:
For recruitment into the command of beautifying the Garden/Creation, to tell
someone that we need someone to play Leviticus, or The Twelve, or Greater
Chronicles--that might be persuasive? We need a 2nd trombone, a
shortstop, etc.
Use
this for one seating chart. http://chuckhartmanhistoryconductor.blogspot.com/2014/04/jordan-7x7-modified-from-rethinking.html
A
retuned seating chart is available at: For a re-retuned 7x7 of a past
year/coram, see: http://chuckhartmanhistoryconductor.blogspot.com/2012/06/retuned-7x7-pergamoscoram861-calendar.html
Use
both? I will be as an example of a one
week at a time warrior of light. The
Resurrection sermon might be on a topic of ‘Who Jesus Is,’ What did He do?’
etc. Through the lens of Genesis [major
emphasis} (1-49) and of Hebrews (49-2,
(sic, Exodus is where we’re going), what can be said to help?
Note: I would like to see a year’s worth of this in
a congregation, as an example book. A joint venture?
Dear Rich:
ReplyDeleteI was trying to say that WE are the body of the Sun/Son that has come with healing in its/His wings, and that we should act like the Jubilee he proclaimed in Luke 4, one anothering one another --and every other--and that this is the way, this matrix/gestalt to prosper on the frontier of the intellectually burnt-out areas.
And then I gave what I thought was a relatively simple way to do it, using the 49-book, 'Rethinking the Order of the Old Testament' Bible.
Be the Jubilee!
Love in King Jesus,
Charlie 'Chuck' Hartman
