The history of ideas is the history of mistakes. (Whitehead) How did the idea of Jesus being the firstborn son develop and how is it relevant to me. How does a literal understanding rob us of the ontological truth of this metaphor?

For many, the journey of faith begins with the promise that their questions will be answered. If we remain sincere and honest in this quest, we discover that questioning our answers is of even greater value. That process is both disruptive and creative and may last for the rest of our lives. But there is another possible development, namely, questioning our questions. Are the questions we asked at first still valid? Are the questions we now ask the most valuable? What assumptions are already built into our questions?

Let the magnitude of this understanding dawn upon your heart, like the gentleness of the rain and the dew upon the morning grass.
Discover yourself in the arms of your only true origin, our God, the Rock and the Father of us all. Isaiah 51:1
"Ascribe greatness to our God, the rock-His work is perfect..." Deut 32
lyrics
Like gentle rain on the tender grass
Let these words distill like the morning dew
I open up my heart and let them in
Like the flowers drink the showers of the spring

Chorus:
How great our God
You are the Rock
From which we came
Our God the Rock
The Father of us all
Of every boy and girl

Now all you, who pursue righteousness
Look to the Rock from which you came
You're so much more than what can be seen
Your life is wrapped up with Christ in eternity

We all construct our own heaven and our own hell. Ironically, we do it unintentionally.
When we attempt to control our world and manipulate others to conform to our standards of perfection, our ideals, we slowly but surely construct a personal hell.
When we lose ourselves and meet people in their chaos with no agenda but to alleviate their pain and unveil their value, we will surely find ourselves more truly alive in this divine space. Surprisingly, heaven is found in entering the hell of others and transforming it.

Tony Bartlett’s long-awaited new book is a major advance in understanding the almost unimaginable blast from elsewhere which we far too hygienically describe as “Divine Revelation”; and how it can be traced through the books we far too complacently bundle as “Holy Scripture”.

Interested in the theological implications of mimetic theory? This is what Anthony Bartlett says about Mimesis Academy:
Isn't it annoying when you're trying to explain something and somebody rushes in to comment, "Actually, what she's trying to say is this," and then goes on basically to misrepresent your thought? Well, Christianity as a movement has suffered from poor or plain bad explanations of its core "good-news," really for the best part of two millennia. Jesus died and rose for us, but why? How do these things make a difference? Andre and Mary Rabé's Mimesis Academy provides us with a language and meaning around these topics which seem astonishingly new, yet which have been there all along, and they are as transforming to hear as they are healing to the whole destructive path humanity is set upon.
Based in the revolutionary bible-sourced anthropology of René Girard, the Academy moves us away from traditional pay-offs by Christ for the price of sin, and reveals instead the overwhelming truth of God's plan to transform his creation falsely mired in original violence. Abel was the second offspring of human parents, killed by the first, Cain. Jesus is the new Abel, both reflecting to us our constant murderous behavior, and at the very same time offering us forgiveness and an entirely new life-giving pattern for being human. Step by step the lectures lead us deeper into this dramatic new perspective, bringing to our eyes and hearts a Christianity we have never known but which we recognize at once as authentic. Is there a biblical name that can be given to this remarkable happening? Yes, I believe there is. It is, I think, the return of the Messiah, but not with violence and unspeakable suffering, but by means of the genuine possibility of change in the human heart. As this goes forward will disciples be called to suffer? Undoubtedly. The world does not surrender easily. But the end result will be a renewal of human life, both personal and widespread, the like we have never known. Mimesis Academy is a crucial voice and agent of this redeeming action by the Father of Jesus for our time.

Time is relational movement. For Einstein, it was the relationship between objects in space. Whitehead took it further, correcting Einstein to show that it is the relationships between events. Philosophically, Aristotle said it is a measurement of change between before and after. There are non-material movements as well - a thought, an experience - all of these movements involve change and consequently, time.

So in a way, time does not exist in its own right. For instance, Einstein showed that physical time is related to spatial movements. So was born the idea of spacetime. But let’s take this to its ultimate conclusion. Time has no objective existence. It is simply an abstraction, a term to describe the movements of things.

Timeless, therefore, would mean no relational movements, no thought, no experience, nothing. Do you still think God is timeless? For that would mean, a God with no relational movements, no progression of thought, no experience.

Or is God the most vibrant, most alive, most affected, most affecting, most relational being of all? For me, the incarnation is the most profound declaration that God is at home in this cosmos and specifically, at home in your human flesh.

NEW EPISODE OVER .com with Thomas Jay Oord & Andre Rabe

Creation does not begin with self-sufficient power or authoritative words, but with a wordless hovering. It is in this contemplative silence that the possibilities within the chaos begin to dance. Tohu wa-bohu - a poetic echo in the silence. Elusive messages drifting; unlikely possibilities awakening; signifiers rearranging. With each repetition of tohu wa-bohu the surface grows more unstable. Possibilities vibrate. What might be nothing, murmurs of what might yet be something. And within the formless, patterns emerge. Creation is not the result of an enforced design but, rather, a willing response to divine seduction.
Tohu wa-bohu - these fluctuations intertwine with the movements of Elohim.
A breath, a whisper - and the depth begins to pulsate.
Suddenly the murmur finds its voice.
The surface of the concealment opens.
Light was hidden within the darkness, but now it is revealed.
These scattered messages might yet have meaning.
The in-distinction contains distinction.
The vibrations sift them apart.
There is a deep, deep pattern within the chaos, and with each differentiating echo the background noise finds a rhythm. This primordial drum-beat might yet be a symphony.
If this primal chaos is not evil, not an enemy of God, but rather part of the process by which God creates, then this passage has great relevance to our present lives. For none of us began in a perfectly ordered and tranquil world. Neither is our internal world without chaos.
But it is in the middle of this mess, in the heart of chaos, that this God does His best work. In the midst of darkness there is a light that has not been snuffed out, a hope against hope, a grace that keeps pouring itself out into our existence. If we listen we can hear the whisper of desire saying: something truly new and beautiful is possible for you. This formless abyss can swarm with life. The illogical fragments, the residue of uninterpreted messages and repressed desires can be brought together in meaningful fulfillment. - extract from Creative Chaos
