WHO IS CHRIST JESUS

-
WHO IS CHRIST JESUS The love of Christ goes further; He laid down his life for his enemies and tells us to love and pray for them also. Matt. 5:24. He was tempted to worship the devil, but He did not. Christ was persecuted and suffered, so if we are to be faithful witnesses, we must be persecuted and suffer, too. CHRIST THE LIGHT ABIDE in the Light of Christ. ALL must be turned to the Light. BELIEVE in the Light. Be BOLD in the Light for He BRINGS us to Christ. The Light is COMFORT, wisdom, love and mercy. DWELL, wait, walk in the Light for He leads to the DAY dawning and the DAY Star arising in our hearts. The Light is EVERYWHERE and in EVERYONE. So all people have EQUALITY. The Light, FOUNTAIN of Life. FORGIVE each other in the Light. The Light is GOD; He is GLORIOUS The Light is a Heavenly Light, a Heavenly Treasure within; He HAMMERS down, judges evil. The Light is INTIMATE and personal; the Light is our INWARD teacher. Dwelling in the Light, which is unc...

FOX IS AN ORTHODOX CHRISTIAN

-
FOX IS AN ORTHODOX CHRISTIAN Because of the “many scandalous lies and slanders that have been cast upon Friends, saying that we deny Christ Jesus which all of our books and declarations clearly testify to the contrary,”  Fox wrote a letter to the Governor of Barbados defending them. When Friends talk about this letter today, they will say that it is the “closest thing that Quakers have to a creed” or that it is “sort of a creed.”  But the letter is the Nicene and Apostle’s creed in Fox’s own language. The language is scriptural but the creeds influences what he says. We own and believe in Jesus the beloved and begotten Son of God, who was conceived by the Holy Ghost and  born of the Virgin Mary, and who is the express image of the invisible God by whom all things were created. He, who knew no sin, was crucified for us in the flesh, buried, rose again the third day by the power of His Father. He ascended up into h...

FOX'S CHRISTOLOGY

-
FOX’S  CHRISTOLOGY The Old Testament , the New Testament and his experience are Fox’s authority for understanding Christ.       He begins with the primitive church and the apostles for they are the last people – until himself –  who really understood Christ.       He pretty well ignores the sixteen hundred years that intervened.  In this way he doesn’t have to deal with the history of Christianity, the crusades, the inquisition, and Christian participation in wars.      Always orthodox himself, Fox felt compelled to defend the orthodoxy of Friends in the letter written to the Governor of Barbados .       Because of the “many scandalous lies and slanders that have been cast upon Friends, saying that we deny Christ Jesus which all of our books and declarations clearly testify to the contrary.”        When Friends talk about this letter today, they say that it i...

HOW DO I FOLLOW MY CONCIENCE

-
How am I to follow my conscience?  How am I to follow my conscience?  How do I  know what God wants me to do with my life?  One way is to pay attention to the Light in my conscience which leads me to the Truth.   Following my conscience means doing what God wants me to do rather than what most people are doing.  Following my conscience frequently involves doing something when most other people think that I am wrong and are doing just the opposite.  Unfortunately, following my conscience is not necessarily the popular thing to do. **************************************** Every day I follow my conscience Every day I follow my conscience, decide what is right, what is wrong.  Most of the time I don't even think about it. I don't have a deep philosophical discussion with myself about whether I should do the laundry or go to the grocery. These chores are part of my share of the household duties. So without thinking about i...
