Well yes, from where I’m sitting the UCP looks like the Wild Rose party performed a hostile takeover of the PCs and are holding a knife to their throats.

Bit of an indictment of the reformation that.

I know, I know, but you can always just delete all the other apps…

Here’s a little selection to get you going. I assigned Descent into Hell for my place class last year.

Step inside the coinherence, friend.

He’s the weird Inkling. There’s a bit of scandal about him, but he really truly believed that we all coinhere in Christ and as such can hold one another’s burdens.

Well, it’s been a long time since I’ve sat down and read a whole book in an evening. But this was worth it. Get yourselves a copy stat!

What a way to conclude. Let’s meet the demonic with divine fire indeed!

If a diocesan office cant figure out how to run on the existing $4million apportionment, not to mention whatever else is coming in from everyone else, that’s a skill issue imo.

Oh! Oh! I finally get it, he’s radicalizing the devil’s primitive nature absolutely. A wholly negative being from the start. Interesting.

Oooohhhh Pharoah, not Job’s Satan, is the proper prefiguration of the Gospels’ Devil. Interesting!

Hmmm, “…good news cannot be rightly heard and understood without it.”

Not sure about this. Does good need a negation to be understood rightly? This seems like a big ontological claim!
November 29, 2025 at 3:19 AM
Still unclear, though, if Ziegler would analytically distinguish between the anti-Christ figure and the devil as anti-Christ ontologically.
November 29, 2025 at 3:16 AM
Ah, kind of circling back to my earlier question re: the Anti-Christ, “The devil is manifest first and foremost as ‘anti-Christ,’ the enemy and opponent of the saving transit of the One who is truly God and truly human…”

Oh nice, even managed to smuggle a BB Warfield citation Easter egg into his Warfield lecture. Lol.

AFFORDANCES!

Despite asking the tough questions at AAR last year, Reichel’s theological appropriation of affordance theory is getting a little shout-out here.

And to think our diocese is on the brink of financial ruin because only 40% of parishes pay their fair share.
