The Naked pastor on questions
I’ve been following the RSS feeds of the ‘Naked pastor’ for quite a while now. One of the consistant Vineyard bloggers who can identify with in many ways.
One of the posts that I have flagged of his is ‘on questions’
The question is more important than the answer. To press it further: the question is the answer. Jesus often answered questions with a question. He did this because he was answering (questioning?) people who needed a fixed answer and who lived according to their answer and demanded that everyone agree with their answer. They questioned Jesus to expose his disagreement with their answer so they could justifiably execute him. Jesus answered them with questions to expose the vacuity of their answer and the fear which sponsored their answer and the murderous hatred which their answer spawned.
