@Plough "...the commandment to hear aright...must be first fulfilled in order that we may then become obedient to it. The word of Jesus places one in decision, the decision of hearing aright, [whereby] one “does” the word, or of hearing falsely, in which case one “does not do” the word."

Copy of tweet here: 1/7 The hermaneutic, deeply vexing, though, isn't it? How on earth do we sensibly communicate an experience of the staggering meaningfulness and plenitude of a Depth Realm conceived and experienced only through an obedience to love turning the world upside down? (Acts 17:6) We only have the first fruits of the Kingdom in this world, but we experience enough to know that it’s the only thing that will ever satisfy us. Once we have had the truth, half-truths do not satisfy us anymore. In its light, everything else is relative, even our own life. -Rohr Ragaz: "Not only does Jesus not bring a new religion, he does not bring any religion at all. One can't make this fact clear enough. He does not want a new religion, but rather a kingdom, a new creation, a new world." Thus, "We must teach spiritual things spiritually," 1 Cor. 2:13

@richvillodas @CTmagazine The 'anti-performance' of concealing the concealment; the narrow way, neither disclosures, nor recognition by others, rather participatory ontology itself; sheep among wolves; the power of God which to the eyes of the narrow-minded seems like powerlessness; the Kingdom key.

Buddha: "When your path is truly secret even from gods, angels, or human beings, you are truly priestly." Hadith Qudsi: "My saints are under My domes, and nobody knows them but I." Matt. 6:3: "When you do merciful deeds, don’t let your left hand know what your right hand does."
