Nicholas Byfield, Puritan minister, writes on putting on tender mercies, a feeling for the distresses of others which you FEEL in your belly (“bowels”, Col 3:12). Like Jesus, Moses, and Paul.

Who knew. Paul was the main villain in 1980’s-90’s theological liberalism. Meanwhile, does MAGA Xianity train us to shut off this feeling?

How can you put on the bowels of mercies?

George Phillips was a Puritan minister. Here he summarizes the parable of Lazarus and the Rich man from Luke 16. He’s not advocating any kind of revolt, or even taxation, he’s just speaking of a moral issue. Poor people are pining. Are we reclining?

Can you make a moral statement that doesn’t quickly devolve into a wooden political policy position?

W poniedziałek XR UK ustawiło wielki różowy stół w londyńskim Covent Garden.

Przysiądźmy się więc i porozmawiajmy o kryzysie klimatycznym jak dorośli ludzie. Jeśli dla rządów, mediów i korporacji to niemożliwe, musimy to zorganizować sami.
