Saving Jesus

Southern Mini
The lenten bible study we are doing at the church is quite good. The UC produced a series of discussions with scholars of enlightened thinking that are questioning mostly the right wing approach to religion. However the background they bring from reformed southern baptist to jew is very informative. Last night they talked about the parables. Jesus was really quite a revolutionary and from the good samaritan to the leaven he was forcing people to think outside the box and was of course very political in his thinking. The notion that God could be corrupted by anything which corrupts man gives us a sense of God in everything, total acceptance. Original sin was brought up and it seemed that most people are not no longer believers in original sin.
