| The other side of 'me'. | |
| By: Mike Date: February 21, 2013, 11:53 am | |
| --------------------------------------------------------- | |
| On the one hand I am still the evangelical fundamentalist of my | |
| youth, whereas on the other hand I have embraced a radicalism | |
| that borders on Unitarianism. | |
| You've seen the latter in the NT canon thread now see the first. | |
| Deeply etched in my heart is the childhood memory of standing on | |
| the sea front of Sheringham on summer Sunday evenings in the | |
| company of the local Salvation Army and singing their signature | |
| tune 'The Saviour's Name' | |

| I so agree. In fact I'd go as far to say , even when my own | |
| belief system takes a little change of course ...I can still | |
| lustily sing the "old songs of Zion" ( even if only agreeing 90% | |
| with every word) Back-then, I believe as much anointing was | |
| given for the melody as to the words. | |
| Then sings my soul..... | |

| [font=courier]Something is deeply "etched" within you Mike and | |
| it is certainly something more than a simply childhood memory of | |
| even very good things in your past. You, along with others, are | |
| searching, and that is what Jesus wants us to do, and, I | |
| believe, to keep on doing. | |
| "Seek and ye shall find", yes, and as the seeking continues, so | |
| also does the finding. Sometimes we will think that we are | |
| retracing our own steps and in sense perhaps we are, but it is | |
| like re-reading the Bible. When we read the same verse the 2nd | |
| and the 3rd time and then again ad infinitum will we ever stop, | |
| from time to time, receiving yet again something from it that | |
| we have never seen before?[/font] | |

| [font=courier]The words were also addressed to me, although not | |
| intentionally. I am very serious in saying that. Sometimes when | |
| God gives me words for someone else, it turns out they also | |
| apply to me.[/font]. | |

| It is the anchor of my faith that is deeply etched within me. | |
