A challenge I perceive with churches, is they keep trying to recreate the church at Ephesus or Corinth. They see those structures as ideal instead of what was suited for circumstances. Churches struggle with creativity - the ability to apply principles to times and seasons.
To many churches, God stopped speaking with Paul or Peter or James. There's nothing new he's saying now.
I'm often deliberately misunderstood when I say this - I believe the Bible contains foundational sacred principles of faith and doctrine. But I do not believe God stopped speaking thousands of years ago with Paul or James or John.
There are fundamental principles of Physics but then, there is Quantum Physics, which is another ball game entirely. We hold principles close but knowledge is always evolving. I can never get over the fact that the Holy Spirit is inherently creative and innovative.
Someone came on here to "warn" me because I said I'm not heavenly minded. How can I be when a fundamental principle of my faith says we are coming back to earth, and that heaven is a temporary destination?
Therefore, I am optimising my faith for earth (albeit a renewed one), not heaven. I am preparing myself to manage systems and societies not angels.
