Sunday, November 28, 2004 What we believeShirley and I are reading a book called "I Believe This" by John Marseden where he has 100 well-know Australians writing about 3 pages on what they believe. Now this is difficult for most, we can't put into words what we believe and Chirstians should be able to, we often can't handle difficulties in the faith, and of course some people don't believe very much at all.The section by Barbara Thiering, the theologan, is quite sad. Like many she has lost her beliefs, being caught up in too many discussions on difficult aspects of the faith. And many sports people believe in mateship and dedication, not much else, they are avoiding important issues. Something else in this line annoys me and it will happen in church today. We will say one of the creeds of the church glibly, and I doubt that many really understand. Being Anglicans we will probably say the Nicean Creed, we have never had any teaching on it and we will pass by any reference to the 39 Articles of the Anglican church. Back to theologians, do you all know the Yes Prime Minister program where Jin has to recommend a man to the Queen to be the next arch-bishop when end in the lines: Jim to Humphrey: "You mean the church has people who don't believe in God?" Humphrey to Jim: "Oh yes Prime Minister, they are called theologicans!" So will we put into words what we believe, I think we should, Geoff you have been elected to start, but I will later today. best wishes and blessing to all from Gary # posted by Anonymous @ 7:02 am 0 comments
