@TornadoNate Precisely. "The ways of history do not lead directly upwards to the Kingdom of God, they pass by way of the final unveiling of the anti-Christ who conceals himself under the last mask to be stripped away - the mask of what is good and what is Christian.” - Hans Urs von Balthasar

Open original document@jamespoulos Belief in history as a self-interested concept, I ask ya.

Copy of tweet and quote tweet here: No single pedagogical method is equal to the gospel transmission of a radical transformation in the meaning of power in the unitive core of the human being, whereby all the heart’s quests are revalued and hierarchies of history reversed. The last is now first and the first last. I shouldn't worry about Thiel or his ilk. Ultimately, he represents the precarious order of false transcendence of a demonic-complex unmasked, like a thief in the night, by the closing of an incarnational circuit 'not of (t)his world.' Kingdom Reality for Real takes no prisoners. It may help to say what the Messiah means by the 'reign of God' or 'Kingdom' or 'basileia' in New Testament Greek. It isn't heaven, a futurity, or where we go once we die. Rather, it's close at hand; a break-through into the Realness of _this_ realm; on Earth as it is in Heaven."
