By Matthew Ehret Today, the world finds itself moving through a turbulent transformation between two systems. Collapsing at a faster rate every day are the foundations of a failed imperial world order defined by zero-sum thinking, consumerism and materialism which has defined our existence for decades. The question is now: will the new world system take the form of a new era of global empire, unmitigated war between faiths and a prolonged dark age OR might it take the form of the beautiful multi-polar world order defined by win-win cooperation between all of the nations, faiths and cultures of the world?
Every cell in my being tingled with joy, love, light, peace, and hope in this passage you shared "Featured in the New Testament Gospels of Luke and Mark, Jesus is invited to eat with two of his disciples (Luke and Cleopas) in the town of Emmaus. This wouldn’t be anything exceptional, except for the fact that Jesus had been violently crucified on the cross and entombed days earlier. Neither Luke nor Cleopas recognize their mentor who has been resurrected after being entombed for three days and it is only upon breaking bread with this stranger that they make their discovery just as Christ vanishes miraculously into light." Thank you and Happy Easter.
To me the message of Christ is that unless we are born of God’s spirit & have his mind we are automatically in the will of the other “fella” who at the moment seems to have the upper hand. However we can rest assured that God the Father is totally in control & this whole mess will ebb & flow until He brings the hammer down; when? No one knows !!!
