RT @nick_routledge: @RDGStout Everywhere I turn on X just now, the Robin Hood myth is surfacing as a threshold story. I see it not as a funeral trudge but as what John Lewis named 'good trouble': the rupture and remaking truly effected and required of a genuine, planetary paradigm shift: Paradise Regained.

Tweet and quote tweet here: Here's a fresh take. Sherwood isn't just a hide-out but a threshold ecology—Jubilee in rehearsal, a micro-Eschaton heralding seed rebels, agrobiodiversity sanctuaries, and food forest commons. Folk-level liberation theology, embodied as an eco-social covenant fit for our era. Quote tweet: 32/ The thresholder lives a politics of presence—not domination or escape, but the convergence of truth, context, and flow. A trinitarian logic of reality: not control but mutuality; not abstraction but relational becoming. Love, not static, but world-making.
@PageauJonathan 28/ Offstage, then, the herald nurtures the quiet grammar of mustard‑seed hope—readying the Kingdom for Empire's ruin, erecting the scaffolding of New World Creation ahead of doomsday theatrics, and flipping the dreaded Apocalypse into an overture of redeemed ecology and polity.

Copy of tweet here: Moltmann: "Judgment is not the last thing of all. What is last and final is the new word of creation: ‘Behold, I make all things new’ (Rev. 21.5).” Perhaps let what we know of the character and will of Jesus as revealed in Scripture reshape our images of the the Parousia Event? “Only when the apocalyptic expectation of judgment is completely Christianized does it lose its terror and become a liberating hope.” - Moltmann Art: It has been fulfilled. - John 19:30
