Very Australian Worship!
"I like the idea of Christianity shorn of its medieval accretions. I like the idea of each believer reading the Bible and finding his or her path to individual salvation. I also like the spontaneity and informality of Hillsong's worship. It's actually very Australian."
God help Australia! finding his or her path to individual salvation Oh dear - John 14:6 says "I AM the Way the Truth and the Life, no man comes unto me but by the Father." Does Bob Carr think that "all roads lead to Rome" when it comes to Christianity? Salvation is only through believing and receiving Christ - not some obscure path! Hillsong - I've heard good and bad about it. I have never been and sometimes I think I would like to go, but then at other times (well most times) I'd rather not go. From what I've heard and seen of it I believe that the emotions take over and people ride along on the 'high' feeling that comes with the frenzy around about them. As for our politicians attending Hillsong - Please forgive me our American friends - but our people are trying to follow the American way. Don't their politicians attend different religious meetings to win the votes? Like the picture Geoff - perhaps we should all pop our picture on the Blog so that we can see each other. Oh - maybe not a good idea, unless I can find that old pic of Bridget Bardot that I pass off as me!!!!
