Doxology

God of Love:

Working for the flourishing of all people –

toppling white supremacy, patriarchy, and affluence –

dispersing power to all people –

enabling all of creation to live fully.

Centering marginalized and oppressed voices

from prophetic resistance

to Kingdom community

of holistic well-being.

Racism, homophobia, sexism –

all tools of oppression and domination –

cast into the flames of Hell.

Hell:

the chosen rejection of God’s love

and flourishing of God’s creation.

And the God of wholeness

will be uplifted and

reign in Love,

Eternally.

Amen.

God’s Love [Inspired by Thomas Aquinas’ ‘God’s Nature’]

When a social claim
is absolute about God
it is probably a deception.

We must test this claim
with the Truth of God’s Love.

Does the claim bear the fruits of Love?

God is love
and the fruits of Love
include and challenge
are abundant and generously given
uplift and make whole.

If the claim demonizes or terrorizes
harms or scares
excludes or makes scarce
it is antithetical to Christ
and God’s Love.

Resist.
