Deuteronomy 6:4 “Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. 5 You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might. 6 And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. 7 You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise. 8 You shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. 9 You shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates.
I love how God tells the Israelites through Moses how transparent their obedience in following God's commands should be, how it should be seen, passed on generations, talked about, the first thing and the last thing on our lips, bound on our hands... It's a beatiful picture of what how our devotion to The Lord should appear: it should be obvious to the outside world. We should wear our faith
A place for Christians to quote scriptures they are passionate about and explain why they have been moved by them. That we may learn from one another and grow into what we are called to be.
Mission Statement
Mahatma Gandhi once said:
"You Christians look after a document containing enough dynamite to blow all civilisation to pieces, turn the world upside down, and bring peace to a battle-torn planet. But you treat it as though it is nothing more than a piece of literature."
In the film Dead Poets Society, English students are taught by a maverick teacher, to reject the text book approach towards looking at poetry... and instead embrace the passion behind it.
In the same way, those of us who post on this site, do so because we wish to reject the idea that scripture is just stories and rules. We want to reconnect with the passion and deep spirituality found within the Bible's covers, immersing ourselves in the deepest of passions... knowing God and being loved by him.
If you are interested in joining the Dead Prophets Society, please email me.
