"God loves us, but ... "Strange love"
One venerable LJ-user, which I promised in vain not to mention catchy wondered issue to Gabby flock. Something like that, it means that:
- Write here Please, first came to mind synonymous with the word "love" .
"Return" to write did not want to not be "excessively intrusive." But if I come to argue and look up words, then my answer would be: " sick ".
Well, "sick" not only in the sense of something "painful", but in the sense of a "cloud".
"Scanner Darkly" naturally, "Mind," overwhelmed by some strong "feeling". "The feeling of love." Which, in some sense, "sickness". Or, in any case too, a "abnormal state".
Like, there lived a man a "normal", and then met someone and "ill".
"The disease at first sight." "Sometimes."
way, not to me only a "synonym" fancied ... Remembered that there is a poet Marina Tsvetaeva such lines:
seems, if not mistaken, in some famous Soviet film their carefully laid the music and sang with feeling very soulful way.
And yet the moment .. It is significant that "Christianised" users naotvechali "there", basically, something in the spirit of "believe", "love" and "worship" ... I mean, they, apparently, it climbs to the primitive association of "God is love", that demonstrates how "shallow" in svalnoy mass "Christians" of his own ideas about their own "faith." For "God is love," Well of course ... But we should not understand these things so literally, as it is only fairly superficial metaphor that "ordinary people" as a surfactant and understand (though quite "At his level ")...
And what, by implication, is this "love"? Oh-oh-oh, this is a very "strange love"! In short, "God is love" is understood as "God is suffering," because "the love of God" - is nothing like the grace bestowed upon His "suffering." Not always, but sometimes. In fact, therefore, the sense that counts, "the more a person suffer, the closer it is to God and say, therefore, obtained by "suffering" people would be worth considered as "special grace of God" . suffering man, so a way likened to someone not anyhow, but Jesus Christ himself, who allegedly also "for all of us suffer."
to "believers" on the idea that Jesus Christ must be the unquestioned authority and example, but, no, "glamorous Christians" to become like him, "hanging on the cross" - do not want, and they want to seem only to celebrate countless church "holiday" to stand next to "Cheburashka in the temple" and sugary "triple kiss" until postblagostnogo exhaustion. At the same time, alas, their "spiritual life" and exhausted.
But this is the essence of "Christianity"? Is this the way to salvation?
Hence, from this "myopia", I suppose, is nedalnozorkoe understanding about what really represents the "God is love" ...
I do it just for the fact that my version of "synonym" is perhaps more "Canonically correct."
