this is awesome

@orderofmelchizedek1 I would suggest reading Brian McLaren's book "A New Kind of Christianity" as a starting point. Also check out Doug Pagitt's "A Christianity Worth Believing". That will at least get you up to speed on the conversation.

@sfeltmate Before I answer, I would like to know what is meant when you refer to yourself and others as "New Christians"? I do believe in the Christ of the Bible, but am curious as to what you are referring to.

[sfeltmate]

This is a loaded question that presupposes a lot things that most of us New Christians quite simply cannot believe anymore. Please feel free to converse. The simple answer is "Yes"...and it depends on exactly what you mean. Do you believe in the Jesus who said "Where are your accusers?"

[jaykarroll]

Do they believe in the God who said repent or perish?

[Soldier7of7Christ]

I wonder what this sounds like back masked...This has got a creepy "To- much -acid-

Hippie-Jesus- Movement" vibe to it.....But then again, so does Mclaren's theology.

[raholland311]

uh . . . get serious. You can't "believe in" God unless you believe in some kind of propositional truth.

Thanks Brian, it seems the song is necessary.

I choked up on what the singer DOES believe in. the artist of trees and galaxies.
