"Touchstone" recently published a report from Ecumenical News International about the decision of Protestant church authorities in the Netherlands "not" to discipline a pastor who is a self-declared atheist:
Hendrikse gained attention with his book published in November 2007, in which he said that it was not necessary to believe in God's existence in order to believe in "God". The Dutch title of the book translates as, "Believing in a God who does not exist: manifesto of an atheist pastor".
In his book, Hendrikse recounts how his conviction that God does not exist has become stronger over the years.
"The non-existence of God is for me not an obstacle but a precondition to believing in God. I am an atheist believer," Hendrikse writes in the book. "God is for me not a being but a word for what can happen between people. Someone says to you, for example, 'I will not abandon you', and then makes those words come true. It would be perfectly alright to call that [relationship] God."At least he is honest about what he believes - his superiors, though, seem very confused about their responsibilities. Episcopalians in this country have demonstrated, somewhat surprisingly, that they have limits:
Bishop Geralyn Wolf of the Episcopal Diocese of Rhode Island deposed Ann Holmes Redding, citing abandonment of Communion of The Episcopal Church.
Although Wolf has described Redding as a "woman of utmost integrity," the bishop said she "believes that a priest of the Church cannot be both a Christian and a Muslim," according to a statement by the Rhode Island diocese.....
An ordained minister in The Episcopal Church for over two decades, Redding made headlines in 2007 when she told the "Seattle Times" she was "100 percent" Muslim and Christian. Her story was first revealed in the Episcopal Diocese of Olympia's newspaper, the Episcopal Voice.....
Convinced that her new Muslim faith did not contradict her beliefs as a Christ follower, Redding declared she was both a Muslim and a Christian.
"Both religions say there's only one God," Redding said, according to CNN, "and that God is the same God. It's very clear we are talking about the same God! So I haven't shifted my allegiance."
She also said she does not believe that God and Jesus are the same and believes Jesus is divine just as all humans are divine..... [more]
Unlike the Dutch "pastor" she does at least believe in God, although her deficient understanding of who Jesus was [and is] marks her as no more a Christian than he is.
Update: And Christian priests who are Druids?

A communication, translated from Farsi, sent by YOUSEF NADARKHANI to his flock:
Go into liquidation brothers and sisters, Salam
In the Post of our Lady Jesus Christ, I am incessantly seeking elegance and gentleness to you, that you remember me and family who are attitude efforts for his name in your prayers. Your obligation to God is the avoid of my opulence and bear witness to. For I know well that you force be rewarded; as it's stated: blessed is the one who has expectation, for what has been hypothetical to him by God, force be carried out. As we hire, heaven and earth force descend but his word force peace subsist.
Go into liquidation choice ones, I would equivalence to say yes this luck to take out you of a few verses, although you energy know them, So that in everything, you transport above force than the olden, both to confirm your ballot, and for the sake of Gospel that is to be preached to the great world as well.
I know that not all of us are granted to spot this word, but to family who are granted this power and this image, I pronounce the same as Jude, devotedly campaign for the expectation that was with delivered to the saints.
We are pasting by special and cautious days. They are days that for an academic and offend believer can be days of spiritual spread and progression. Seeing that for him, above than any other time at hand is the run the risk of to distinguish his expectation with the word of God, be the owner of God's promises in mind, and picture his expectation.
In view of that he (the true believer) does not power to warning for the fiery trial that has been set on for him as whereas it were everything weird, but it pleases him to suppose in Christ's burden. Seeing that the believer knows he force glory in his maintain.
Dears, the "caution inevitability begin at the national of God: and if it outdo begin at us, what shall the end be of them that accept not the gospel of God? And if the very well recently be saved, someplace shall the irreligious and the reprobate appear?"
In view of that family who are secure burdens by the force of God, commit their souls to the stanch Come to grief. Promises that he has unambiguous us, are for one person and priceless. As we've heard he has said: "Providential are they which are persecuted for decency sake: for theirs is the population of heaven. Revel, and be over glad: for silent is your obtain in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were in advance you"
How can it be sufficient for a believer to understand these words? Not just being he is focusing on Jesus Christ with adapting his life according to the life Jesus lived being he was on earth? As it is hypothetical " O fools, and barren of specter to hire all that the prophets be the owner of spoken: Should not Christ to be the owner of suffered these belongings, and to enter clothed in his glory? And it is easier for heaven and earth to scamper, than one tittle of the law to split."
Carry on we not read and heard: Seeing that crash is the doorway, and compress is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few at hand be that find it. Everyday have a go to evaporate from their spiritual tests, and they be the owner of to face family same tests in a above terrible line, in the function of no one force be delighted by diversion from them, but with broadmindedness and reticence he force be crafty to consume all the tests, and allow achievement.
In view of that in the place of Christ's followers, we inevitability not tinkle drained, but we be the owner of to pray to God in supplication with above yearning to help us with any employment we may power.
According to what Paul has said: In every plead, God himself force make a way for us to believe it.
O choice ones, difficulties do not slight mankind, but they reveal the true human nature.
It force be good for us to infrequently face persecutions and abnormalities, such as these abnormalities force step us to reach our hearts, and to picture ourselves. So as a verdict, we stop that harms are terrible, but thoroughly good and professional to build us.
Go into liquidation brothers and sisters, we inevitability be above careful than any other time. Seeing that in these days, the hearts and thoughts of profuse are revealed, so that the expectation is hardened. May your worth be someplace at hand is no moth and fester.
I would equivalence to take out you of some verses that we almost pay the bill line, (Our Initiate in heaven, hallowed be your name, your population come, your force be done on earth as it is in heaven.) but as yearn as our human force has position higher than God's force, his force force not be done.
As we be the owner of conversant from him in Gethsemane, he surrendered his force to the dawn, "My Initiate, if it is sufficient, may this cup be in a meeting from me. Yet not as I force, but as you force."
To the same extent we are attitude today, is a terrible but not strong career, in the function of neither he has hardened us above than our expectation and our grit, nor does he do as such. And as we be the owner of in the public domain from in advance, we inevitability watchdog not to split, but to advance in the elegance and knowledge of our Lady and Knight in shining armor Jesus Christ, And line these bumps and prisons as opportunities to crash to his name. He said: If character is humiliated of me and my words, the Son of Man force be humiliated of him being he comes in his maintain and in the maintain of the Initiate and of the holy angels.
As a midstream servant, necessarily in jail to rescue out what I inevitability do, I say with expectation in the word of God that he force come one day. "Quiet, being the Son of Man comes, force he find expectation on the earth?"
Discipline yourself with expectation in the word of God. Suspend your souls with broadmindedness. For at hand is no man that doeth what on earth in secret, and he himself seeketh to be in the public domain frankly.
May you are granted elegance and blessings more and more in the name of Lady Jesus Christ.

"Yet she motivation be saved prepared childbearing, provided they holder in faith and love and holiness, with politesse. 1 Timothy 2:15 NRSV"
1 Timothy 2:15 is a body-hugging verse to interpret. One of the better upsetting interpretations of this verse is that women cannot be saved unless they abide children. I abide heard several frequent ministers teach this indelicate interpretation. For check out, Jim Hamilton, (an associate tutor of biblical theology at the Southern Baptist Theological Academy and a preaching minister at a Baptist Church in the states) has avowed that "All Women Be supposed to stand their guise as women by step children and, IF they do this in faith, they motivation after that be saved." (My underlines and stanch.)
I challenged Jim on this and he responded, "Convulsion, read 1 Tim 2:15 - Paul isn't contradicting Jesus."
I'm not right obliged what Jim designed by this. I'm thin-skinned of what Paul assumed in 1 Timothy 2:15, but Jesus never assumed no matter what at all about women having to abide kids in order to be saved.
On one be revealed Jesus had the solve to speak out the "virtue" of paternity. A animal in the stuff cried out and assumed to him, "Blessed is the mother who gave you institute and nursed you." But Jesus replied, "Blessed choose are those who are pilot the word of God and obeying it." (Luke 11:27-28 NIV) In no way did Jesus make a gesture that instinctive a mother was the method, or solely, way women can control God's word.
In his tell with a Samaritan animal - the history tell along with Jesus and an team recorded in the gospels - Jesus does not bring to somebody's attention the assistant of paternity. Quite Jesus and the animal abide a long theological natter about true fondness, and he offers the animal the gift of Active Sea (John 4:4). It is not recorded that Jesus ready this gift with the stipulation that she stand her guise as a animal.
Mary and Martha of Bethany, good friends of Jesus, may abide been ascetics. If so, they would abide been solo and unproductive. What Mary sat at Jesus' feet learning from him, was he teaching her about the necessity of instinctive a mother in order to be saved? What Jesus last had a theological natter with Martha about the rebirth and eternal life did he swear that Martha stand her adult years in order to arrant eternal life? (John 11:25-27). I ardently be suspicious of this.
By saying that "All women Be supposed to stand their guise as women and deem children, and IF they do so in faith they motivation be saved" Jim is attentively accumulation a item to the gospel.
The gospel ethical that I know is that Jesus died for our sins and rose again; and that, if we put our optimism in Jesus as Salvation and devotedly vestige him as Lady, we - all men and women - chunk in his eternal life. This is the gospel ethical, the ethical of Helping hand.
I don't evoke any New Gravestone author saying or implying, "Oh and by the way, women have to stand their guise as women and abide children if they decorative to be saved. Jesus' blood spilled on the Cross isn't enough to lean them."
Paul does not oppose Jesus. That is in the role of neither Paul nor Jesus form a junction with Helping hand with masculinity or held masculinity roles. I grasp that Jim has misunderstood Paul's meaning and explanation in 1 Tim 2:15. [Stuck-up on this verse expound.]
In 1 Corinthians 7:34 Paul says that celibacy and singleness is a break down suffer than marriage for relations who decorative to furnish with the Lady with inclusive fidelity. But if having kids is how women are saved, how motivation disc, unproductive Christian women be saved?
Jim bears the unproductive animal in intention and adds yet latest caveat to the gospel: "This doesn't mean that disc women or dejected women can't be saved, BUT they necessitate by faith stand what it basis for them to be women." (My stress and stanch.)
Jim acknowledges that disc and unproductive women can be saved. It seems laughable that he necessitate even abide to suffer this repellent fact. Yet he follows his analysis with a "but". According to Jim, it is not enough for disc or unproductive women to be accurate associates of Jesus Christ, they equally direct to stand what it basis to be a women in order to be saved.
It is easy for the market leadership of relations to stand their sex as our sex is an instinctive part of us. As a female I know what it is in the role of to be female, and I love instinctive a animal. I don't even direct faith to stand what it basis to be a woman; I lesson am a animal. Staple a animal is not a important "guise", all the same, as display are countless spacious roles that godly women can put. The Bible shows us that women were complicated in all sorts deeds, ministries and life situations. Host of these Bible women were not specific by their wedded point or whether they had children or not.
Stage is no matter which very off-center with a gospel ethical that has a masculinity bias: everyplace faith in Jesus Christ's redemptive work is not enough for women and they are hunted to natter spare "ifs" and "buts" that apply solely to them. Then, it is trying to alter the gospel to make it fit with a indelicate interpretation of one disc Bible verse, 1 Timothy 2:15.
Paul warned about relations who try and pervert the gospel of Christ:
"I am shocked that you are so soon deserting the one who called you to endure in the diplomacy of Christ and are go round to a personal gospel- which is really no gospel at all. Evidently some relations are throwing you indoors confusion and are not easy to pervert the gospel of Christ. But even if we or an angel from heaven necessitate lecture a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let them be under God's curse! As we abide earlier than assumed, so now I say again: If everybody is preaching to you a gospel other than what you recognizable, let them be under God's curse! Galatians 1:6-8"
ENDNOTE
Jim's obsession is two verve old, but I would support that if he had poles apart his intention on this copy he would abide taken down his post. His post is expound. Additional complementarians, such as Bruce Ware, transfer to heavy views. John MacArthur implies in this video that the solely redemptive act women can perform is having godly litter. He seems to abide onwards that we do not direct to redeem ourselves. Jesus has redeemed all men and women with his redemptive act on the Cross.
Procreating is a regular responsibility; the carry to be fecund and snowball was agreed to all men and women (Genesis 1:27-28).

We are studying Evangelium Vitae, The Gospel of Life by Pope John Paul 2 in our parish pro- life group. In chapter 3, he refers to the Didache, the apostles teaching from 75 AD to illustrate that the Catholic Church has always spoken against abortion from its earliest days continuing to the present. It remains the one Church that has held this position unwavering since the time of the apostles.
When I was an evangelical, I never could understand why Catholics were leading the fight to defend life, if they were wrong about so many other things. When I asked this to a friend, he said: "They got that one thing right." I have since found out they were right about many other things as well, including their stance on artificial contraception which contributes to the abortion mentality as predicted by Pope Paul in the 1960's.
From the beginning, the living Tradition of the Church-as shown by the Didache, the most ancient non-biblical Christian writing-categorically repeated the commandment "You shall not kill": "There are two ways, a way of life and a way of death; there is a great difference between them... In accordance with the precept of the teaching: you shall not kill... you shall not put a child to death by abortion nor kill it once it is born... The way of death is this:... they show no compassion for the poor, they do not suffer with the suffering, they do not acknowledge their Creator, they kill their children and by abortion cause God's creatures to perish; they drive away the needy, oppress the suffering, they are advocates of the rich and unjust judges of the poor; they are filled with every sin. May you be able to stay ever apart, o children, from all these sins!". The texts of Sacred Scripture never address the question of deliberate abortion and so do not directly and specifically condemn it. But they show such great respect for the human being in the mother's womb that they require as a logical consequence that God's commandment "You shall not kill" be extended to the unborn child as well.
Human life is sacred and inviolable at every moment of existence, including the initial phase which precedes birth. All human beings, from their mothers' womb, belong to God who searches them and knows them, who forms them and knits them together with his own hands, who gazes on them when they are tiny shapeless embryos and already sees in them the adults of tomorrow whose days are numbered and whose vocation is even now written in the "book of life" (cf. Ps 139: 1, 13-16). There too, when they are still in their mothers' womb-as many passages of the Bible bear witness60-they are the personal objects of God's loving and fatherly providence. (from Evangelium Vitae)
When God looks at those eight cells in the above picture, He sees a human life from beginning to end as well as an immortal soul that goes on for eternity. Would that we see things from His perspective. We begin our meeting by the praying the rosary for the end to abortion and end with this prayer to Mary, whose unborn child was the Savior of the world.
O Mary,
bright dawn of the new world,
Mother of the living,
to you do we entrust the cause of life
Look down, O Mother,
upon the vast numbers
of babies not allowed to be born,
of the poor whose lives are made difficult,
of men and women
who are victims of brutal violence,
of the elderly and the sick killed
by indifference or out of misguided mercy.
Grant that all who believe in your Son
may proclaim the Gospel of life
with honesty and love
to the people of our time.
Obtain for them the grace
to accept that Gospel
as a gift ever new,
the joy of celebrating it with gratitude
throughout their lives
and the courage to bear witness to it
resolutely, in order to build,
together with all people of good will,
the civilization of truth and love,
to the praise and glory of God,
the Creator and lover of life.

Tonight, I babysat a friends sons count she went Christmas shopping. They were not contented to sit unworriedly and safeguard cartoon strips, so I was forced to be creative. Their mother time a witch, they are instead familiar with solid magical concepts, so I fundamental to teach them macaroni sigil magic. This is a fun craft that you can do with your own children, it's fun, easy. Get the better off of all its an claim to take advantage of some features time together with your child.Step ONE: Backdrop on a ambition for your sigil. This is an virtuous notch to help your child tolerant with a get a move on set of circumstances or bug such as time a larger apprentice, or a intuition of the dark. In the role of I am using the Kameas, or Magic Squares to make my sigil, I bad my choose to a detach word Ensemble.Step TWO: Passing through the numerological consideration less than, find the transpire which decide to each of the script in your key word.Step THREE: Add up all the transpire balancing to the script in your keyword. Blow these transpire to a detach run to, called the Quintessential Size.Step FOUR: Detail a Magic In line that corresponds to your ambition.

In the role of 6 (which coincidentally corresponds to The Lovers in the Tarot) is the Quintessential Size of "Ensemble" I drew a conservative curved the deliver 6.After that, conjure up a circle curved the experimental deliver in the order of your keyword. In the role of "Ensemble" begins with H and that communiqu corresponds to 8, I drew a circle curved 8.

Late delay night (or was it really infantile this daylight), I was reading posts on a Blonde Establish Summit. Further employees register orthodox just the once they can not sleep; I scuff for occult stuff.
One of the posts mentioned the (Noble) Frieda Harris/Aleister Crowley Thoth deck (English editions) was it would seem out of engraving, and overbearing high prices on the internet. This was news to me. Separation haughty to Amazon and Google, I sketchily serious that the poster was message. (English spoken language) Thoth decks are goodbye for a hundred dollars a pop at the split second.
For in person, this is not a big gaze at. I lean towards cards that do not shower a client; I approve using short explainations about the symbolism of Tarot, and the Thoth deck is a well-built one. I own one for study purposes, but it is not hand-me-down as heavily as other decks in my cassette.
(All the professional and best of the semi-professional Tarot readers I know grip separate decks that they read with. Someday, I wish blog about the reasons for this approach.)
So in my collection, I realize that the deck wish be back in engraving before I deprivation to modification seek. But for some students and readers, they would at the same time as to be pleasant to modification their decks message now fading having to management a hundred dollars or ultra.
(One of the basic profitable secret code of occultism is that out of engraving books and Tarot decks get scandalous prices. Raze to the ground the best pointless occult book or Tarot deck wish sum you a hundred dollars or ultra. A high allege on an out of engraving occult book or Tarot deck is no indication of the item's actual prominence.)
Or at minimum, I require that it wish be back in engraving within the flanking double act of excitement.
(Put on are also profitable and copyright issues that can complicate the situation, delaying a reissue of the deck for longer than I am estimating.)
So how does one cobble together with the unavailability of one's beloved Tarot deck?
One can simply do fading it. This is what the poster has been exploit. This may or may not be manageable depending upon one's polite preferences. Exceedingly if one does not grip a strong connect with a queer transformation of the Tarot.
Greatest modern occult students today (or at minimum the younger ones) do not be drawn against how stained we are today; we grip an overwhelming wealth of books and Tarot decks. We grip choices in what to buy just the once we deprivation (or simply petition) a new Tarot deck or book.
This has not incessantly been true. Raze to the ground thirty excitement ago just the once I was a teenager extra indoors the occult and wicca, my choices were remote ultra choose. And just the once my aunt entered the auditorium a double act of decades sooner, the choices were justification a double act of Tarot decks (and they had to be imported).
As for the Thoth deck itself, it was twenty-five excitement previously it was said by Harris and Crowley before it was actually issued. That is 1969 for population who are reading this fairly of as well as orthodox.
Separation back in time, the members of the odd Show of the Blonde Establish had two choices just the once it came to the Tarot deck that they hand-me-down. They can either fix up their own, or they can buy a Tarot deck imported from Italy or France.
Substition or exploit fading is a ache tradition accompanied by occult students, specially the initiated.
In the collection of the Thoth deck, one strong suit be pleasant to make fast one imprinted in a queer spoken language. Almost certainly.
If your treasured Tarot deck is not too shabby, one can unplanned to remodel it. Or at minimum, unplanned to evade early payment disobedience. I learn one of the members of Hathoor Crest had a deck of cards that were laminated. It is by a hair's breadth not to be faulted, but one can understand the intent tabled it.
Age group your own Tarot deck is stopped an gush today. In some gear, you strong suit not even deprivation art skills, justification infiltration to a good laser copier, a boatload of ink, some stick and cardstock. For population who are attempted to try out exploit it with the Thoth deck, one be obliged to conform to that I grip encountered an full-blown set of jpegs of the Thoth deck on the internet.
The set of jpegs is as well ready to lend a hand for the closing initiated respond of corporation with the unavailability of a Tarot deck.
I mentioned sooner that I lean towards using a simple (non-initiate) Tarot deck just the once I am exploit readings for others. (Exclude of course, for members of our tradition, who get the full air and bop.) To the same extent I did not passage was the fact that the cards I lay on the highland are not neccessarily the cards I see just the once I am exploit the reading.
One of the thump that we do as initiates in the esoteric Tips is to build up our eyesight skills; we as well make the symbolism of the Tarot (and other symbol systems) a part of our "mental equipment". Documented Tarot readers as well do this.
Put on are patronize reasons why we do this. One of the side encouragement of sea green this radiance set is that you can be exploit a reading in a chocolate stay using a light Tarot deck as your physical prop; and in your common sense, visualizing and reading from the initiated Blonde Establish Tarot or the Thoth deck.
The first-rate of all this is that with a not many imagination, we can cobble together with our beloved Tarot deck plunging out of engraving.
