Another Version of the Christmas Story
Saturday, December 18, 2010
Does Jesus believe in God?
Taken from
Does Jesus believe in your god, my god or our god?
Which version of God does he believe in or follow?
He didn’t seem to believe in the god of the Pharisees
He didn’t believe in the god of the Old Testament
He doesn’t believe in a patriarchal god or a dualistic god
He didn’t believe in a top-down god
He didn’t believe in a god out there
He didn’t believe in a distant or separate god
Would he believe in the God that many people worship today?
He appeared not to be interested in the finer aspects of the law
But moved people from an exterior code of conduct
To an internal consciousness and responsibility
He dumped dogma
He moved us from the be-liefs to the be-attitudes
He didn’t promote a god who is set apart
But a god who can be with me, in me, part of me
Be at-one with me

Christmas Poem by Benjamin
Making cards and wrapping gifts
Endless fun
Ring goes the bells
Riding their cars to the mall
Young people waiting for their parents to get their coffee or tea
Christ was born this day
Holidays
Rest time
It's a merry time of year
See your family
Time goes fast on this day
Movie time
A time for giving
Santa comes
By Benjamin Philip Schonken (aged 8)
