On the Gospel
The Gospel is harsh…
The Gospel is a harsh
document; the Gospel is ruthless and specific in what it says; the Gospel is
not meant to be re-worded, watered down and brought to the level of either our
understanding or our taste. The Gospel is proclaiming something which is beyond
us and which is there to stretch our mind, to widen our heart beyond the
bearable at times, to recondition all our life, to give us a world view which
is simply the world upside-down and this we are not keen to accept.
Anthony Bloom
(1914-2003)
