yesterday’s post generated some discussion around social media circles and in some parts of the blogosphere. on RLC, where the article was picked up and shared, i believe i was accused of projecting myself as a ‘Super Christian,’ denying God’s omnipotence, omnipresence and omniscience, his sovereignty, and wasting people’s time as a heretic.
i just shook my head and smiled.
meanwhile, back here at the WayWard follower, a friend posted the following video in the comments section, which i’m passing along as today’s blog post (along with the song’s lyrics, found below). it’s message is timeless, much needed and inviting (the animation is delightful, as well).
this is the good news.
and for the record :: if this message is dangerous or heretical in the eyes of the religious elite, then count me in. i recall reading about another heretic around 2,000 years ago with a similar message…receiving pushback from similar circles.
that’s the guy i want most to be like.
God is not a man
God is not a white man
God is not a man sitting on a cloud
God cannot be bought
God will not be boxed in
God will not be owned by religion
but God is love,
God is love,
and he loves everyone
God is love,
God is love,
and he loves everyone
God is not a man
God is not an old man
and God does not belong to republicans
God is not a flag
not even american
and God does not depend on a government
but God is good,
God is good,
and he loves everyone
God is good,
God is good,
and he loves everyone
athiests and charlatans,
and communists and lesbians,
and even ol’ pat robertson
oh God, he loves us all
catholic or protestant,
terrorist or president,
everybody, everybody loved, loved, loved, oh
God is love
God is love
and he loves everyone
stop the hating, please just stop the hating now
’cause God is Love
i love it. what do you think?
