Isaiah 7

""Israel is no stronger than its capital, Samaria,
and Samaria is no stronger than its king, Pekah son of Remaliah.
Unless your faith is firm,
I cannot make you stand firm.”"
-Isaiah 7:9


It's...

It's strange.
God won't make us do anything.
It's choice.
Belief.
Choosing.

God just...does things.
It's purpose, not insanity...I suppose.

Love though... guiding and directing...
I never made this connection before but Kierkegaard is like literary punk rock.

No smashed guitars or moshing...but there is biting satire, strong conviction, self deprecating humor and a willingness to rip one's soul open and act as a display to the world...just in the hope that someone gets the point.

I would like to think that he would like The Clash.
And that in the next Age we'll be playing their music in one of the many cover bands in a tavern in the New Jerusalem.
