Sign Posts in the Rubble



The are signs among the rubble, can anyone see?
Corruption and death are all around me.
I live in a colony, an outpost for God.
The present is where I dwell among God's people on Holy sod.

When did we get to the place where doubt is respectable?
Can we bear the cross even if we appear as a foolish spectacle?
Can the church and Israel hold hands together?
Can we be one new creature and partake of the same Seder?

The story of Jesus is for the conversion of all to break the curse.
The gospel does not belong to one group or nation but to the whole universe.
God is making all things new in the great Apocatastasis*
which is not a doctrine to hold,
But a prayer to behold.



*Apocatastasis means the universal salvation of all things and people.
