Quote of the day

Oh, it's Sunday, it's time for a Sabbath quote

'The words "God is love" have no real meaning unless God contains at least two persons. If God was a single person, then before the world was made, He was not love. That is perhaps the most important difference between Christianity and all other religions: That in Christianity God is not a static thing, not even a person, but a dynamic, pulsating activity, a life, almost a kind of drama. Almost, if you will not think me irreverent, a kind of dance. What does it all matter? It matters more than anything else in the world. The whole dance, or drama, or pattern of this three-personal life is to be played out in each one of us. They are a great fountain of energy and beauty spurting up at the very center of reality. But how are we to be united with God? He came into the world and became a man in order to spread to other men the kind of life He has, by what I call "good infection."' - cs lewis

Dude, you've posted multiple times now... Nice.

I like God as a kind of dance. Not my favorite way to think of him, but nice for a new perspective. And not, like, an uptight inhibited dance either.

well, it's kinda interesting, some translations of Genesis 1:2 says the Holy Spirit "fluttered" over the waters, already a kind of dance. But I'm not much of a dancer myself, i'm the uptight, inhibited kind.
