Today we continue our journey into the book of the Revelation to John for the Seven Churches. It is important that we always keep in mind that the authors of books of the Bible (which were letters, or histories, or poetry etc.) had a particular audience, set or concerns and objectives in mind. We are not the primary audience. This does not mean that there is no value for us - quite the opposite! It is like listening to a wise person offering sage advice to someone else. We can learn so much my carefully listening in! Have you got any questions or feedback for us? Please do make contact!

Any careful reader of New Testament texts will quickly notice how important the Hebrew Scriptures (the Old Testament) are in the New Testament. They form the backdrop of many of the ideas, moral commitments, religious beliefs, and at times doctrinal convictions that are expressed by authors of New Testament texts. This is not surprising since it was the Bible that they used (as members of the Hebrew and early Messianic faith). Today we look at references to the Old Testament in Revelation.

This episode is being released on Christmas Day 2020. Alan and I want to wish all of our listeners a blessed Christmas. It is very apt that we focus on the theme ‘The life that Christ brings’ today. I was inspired by this quote from Dietrich Bonhoeffer.
“When God chooses Mary as the means when God himself wants to come into the world in the manger of Bethlehem, this is not an idyllic family affair. It is instead the beginning of a complete reversal, a new ordering of all things on this earth. If we want to participate in this Advent and Christmas event, we cannot simply sit there like spectators in a theater and enjoy all the friendly pictures. Rather, we must join in the action that is taking place and be drawn into this reversal of all things ourselves. Here we too must act on the stage, for here the spectator is always a person acting in the drama. We cannot remove ourselves from the action. With whom, then, are we acting? Pious shepherds who are on their knees? Kings who bring their gifts? What is going on here, where Mary becomes the mother of God, where God comes into the world in the lowliness of the manger? World judgment and world redemption—that is what’s happening here. And it is the Christ child in the manger himself who holds world judgment and world redemption. He pushes back the high and mighty; he overturns the thrones of the powerful; he humbles the haughty; his arm exercises power over all the high and mighty; he lifts what is lowly, and makes it great and glorious in his mercy.”
- Dietrich Bonhoeffer, God Is In the Manger

History records many instances in which oppressed persons have turned into oppressors. Sadly, injustice is a part of the struggle of humanity. It is common to us all, none of us is exempt from that possibility. Today we discuss some lessons from the book of Ruth for the Hebrew people, and of course for ourselves, in relation to responsibility, power and justice.

After the period of the exile, the Hebrew people began to loose touch with their truest identity. We still struggle with that problem today! Somehow we think that national identities, ethnic identities, political or social identities, are our primary identities. In today's episode we discuss the need for the Hebrew people to re-learn who they are in the midst of different circumstances and realities.

Because God is so deeply relational, God is always present in our current lives. Of course God is a God of history - so there is a continuity between the past, the present and the future. But, the values of God's nature (love, compassion, justice, inclusion) shape how laws and principles need to change in the present to match what we face at this time in our lives and history. Today we talk about the need for some post-exilic laws.

In the Kingdom of God is the weak, the caring, the loving, the obedient, who have true and lasting authority - since it comes from God.

I don’t know about you, but I often find it far easier to advocate for my ‘rights’, to seek to be treated fairly by others. It is far more difficult for me to live with a view towards fairness for others - particularly when it doesn’t directly relate to me, or may even cost me something! Today we consider the principle of fairness in this portion of the Bible.

The narrative of Noah's ark and 'The Flood' are wonderful opportunities for us to reflect on God's nature. The ways in which we interpret, and retell, narratives in the Bible are important. Not only do they express our values (since we are the readers and interpreters of the text), they also shape the values of others (communities, families, Churches). It is important that we consider how we engage what are sometimes called 'texts of terror' (floods, destruction etc.)

'Truth' is a tricky thing! There are different ways of thinking about what is true and why it is true - I happen to think my wife is the most wonderful partner in the world. Of course this is true for me, but in what ways is it true? And how do we deal with competing claims to truth? This episode should help to open our eyes to understanding and engaging some of these complexities for the sake of life and love!

Alan and I have known each other for decades. His ministry over the years has been a source of great healing, wholeness, and the ushering in of justice and peace for many individuals and communities. One of the values that underlies his ministry, and that of the communities in which he serves, is the understanding that every person is born 'in love, by love and for love.' This offers such life giving depth and direction to our living! I hope you find this episode meaningful and inviting.

Last week we discovered some of the 'pre-history' and wider cultural history that predates the Genesis creation narratives. Today we consider what we actually believe! Would Jesus say 'amen' to our views of all of creation (including human and non-human creation, and how we relate to all of God's creative work?)

In todays’s episode of ‘It’s not a lecture... just a thought...’ Rev Alan Storey and Prof Dion Forster discuss the relationship between our faith and the texts of the Bible.

In this episode of ‘It’s not a lecture... just a thought...’ Rev Alan Storey and Prof Dion Forster introduce a discussion on how Christians use and abuse the Bible. This is particularly topical at the moment - this week saw Donald Trump, the President of the United States, holding up a Bible in front of St John’s Parish in Washington DC during the peaceful protests against the killing of George Floyd. Many found this symbolic use of the Bible to be problematic. Of course this is just one example of how persons, including Christians, have used the Bible for ideological purposes.
