RT @nick_routledge: @wilsonhartgrove @RevDrBarber @ShaneClaiborne @MaeEliseCannon @rodney_sadler Ultimately, the catastrophe of a global religio-political control-complex with no operative interest in reconciliatory reformation, summons the advent of planetary prophetology's unifying articulation - the planetary-saving righteousness of an inclusive eschatology, revealed.

Copy of tweet here: Ultimately, the Hour isn't a promise to comparative theologians such as ourselves, but to the world's poor - of the revelation and liberation of a realm and reign of truth transcending all fictions and polemics sustaining secular, as much as religious, tyranny and division.

They are the poor, the disinherited, the dispossessed. What does our religion say to them?" - #HowardThurman #WorldDayOfThePoor @UniteThePoor
@UssamaMakdisi end/ In part, the monumental significance of the cataclysm now unfolding in the Holy Land derives from the encounter of the three great Semitic religions and, correspondingly, the unifying articulation of an Eliatic concordance miraculously revealed in tripartite reconciliation.

Copy of tweet thread here: 1/ I hadn't encountered the Rabbinic connection though it certainly resonates with Khezr's Eliatic function as a trans-historical, prophetic prototype heralding a fundamentally *reconciliatory* dimension of experience coalescing, ultimately, as a planetary-saving arrival. 1/ The green prophetic prototype is an ancient one. The core, transcultural 'transmitter', combining several Quranic, Biblical and ancient mythical heroes, is reckoned to be Khezr, the 'Islamic' prototype of Elijah, the prophetic Green Man of Islam… Quote tweet: Transcending and including cultures, religions and *realms*, no less. Indeed, perhaps his revelatory significance as a fundamentally reconciliatory, planetary archetype has never been more clear-cut?
