[Dialogue] A question about the distant past

[Thomas Morrison]

Tom here . . .
The Local Church Experiment (LCX for short) was based on the images of
imagnal education (IE) and RS-1.  Pat Stewart and Mary Clutz taught me IE.
So what were some of the images?  Global grid (I can reproduce it even to
this day), three triangles superimposed on a NASA photo of Earth (triangles
were Congregation, Cadre, and eventually Guild), The slogan was "The Local
Church:  Body of Christ--Hope of the World", imbalances in the Social
Process triangles, New Religious Mode (I still have the devotional
materials based on it), and eventually The Other World in the MIdst of this
World (this more or less pushed us to "ground" our church/religious
language in ordinary language; I find it a never ending work, sigh).
The LCX in itself was presented/taught in two, 3-inch binders.  One key
differentiation for me was noticing that contradictions operate under
problems.  Throughout the two binders the emphasis was on
identifying/creating practical tools.

Me?  I'm now a retired Lutheran pastor (congregational focus), retired
instructor in biostatistics (university level), and most recently
soon-to-be-retired psychiatric social worker (severe mental illness).  I
guess that is enough of me.  Grin.

> Alice,
> Great question, and a perennial one for those who grew up in more
> conservative churches where “salvation” meant believing certain things in
> order to get certain rewards, especially the assurance of going to heaven.
> Your discomfort comes from critical thinking, since to be “saved” assumes
> that you are lost and cannot save yourself.  It also assumes that we are
> born into Original Sin as an inheritance, like being born left-handed or
> with red hair.  Like so much of the language of evangelical Christianity,
> the “believer” is helpless and hopeless until we submit to a higher power.
> Or, more accurately, until we agree to say that we “accept Jesus Christ as
> our personal Lord and Savior” and know that our sins were forgiven by his
> death on the cross.  It also assumes that the whole purpose of the life of
> Jesus was to die, when in fact he was killed.  So, when you begin to
> consider old words like “salvation” and what they might mean in progressive
> Christianity, it is always helpful to turn to the wisdom of Marcus Borg,
> whose work in helping us reconsider and even redefine words like salvation
> is found in a book called “*Speaking Christian*.”  Here are some of his
> words on this topic that I hope will be helpful:
>
> *The term “salvation” and the concept afterlife have been linked in
> Christian and religious conversation. Salvation has been made to be about
> gaining a “positive” afterlife.  It has become a normative thought that
> this is the point of all religions—to ensure a happy eternal resting
> place.  Borg would argue that the goal of the Christian life is
> salvation—but not primarily about before or after death ... . **The best
> single English synonym for “salvation”—“transformation”. Transformation of
> ourselves and the world. It’s about personal transformation and
> transformation of society as a whole. Salvation can be experienced as
> healing—a salve. Salvation is a healing ointment. Giving the transformation
> from blindness to seeing. In Eastern orthodoxy—primary definition of
> salvation is enlightenment. Jesus came as a light in our darkness, etc. **This
> speaks to the idea of living people who are dead inside—salvation being the
> transformation from death to life. Moving people from pre-occupation and

> Examining the Meaning of the Resurrection, Part III:
> Where Were the Disciples When They Saw?

> June 16, 2011
> When people have a life-changing experience, they tend to freeze in their

> broke or the new awareness entered their world.  I can recall to this day
> where I was when, as a ten-year old child, I heard the news of the Japanese

> when the recognition dawned that the World Trade Center had been attacked
> with commandeered commercial airliners being driven into the Twin Towers.
>
> Each of these moments was a shaping experience and each would be lived and
> relived in our memories for the rest of our lives.  The recent navy seal
> raid on Bin Laden’s secret hideout in Pakistan and the death of the planner
> and perpetrator of this monstrous act caused many to relive that original
> moment and to recall just how its awareness not only entered, but also
> shaped our lives.
>
> The New Testament clearly regarded the moment we have named “Easter” as a
> life-changing experience, indeed so powerful a moment was it that
> eventually the followers of Jesus decided to make it indelible for all of
> history by making the decision to view the life of Jesus as the life by

> Christ, which were to be called BC, and the years after Christ referred to
> as years lived in the power of his ongoing and continued presence, which we
> called Anno Domini, or AD, “The Year of our Lord.”
>
> Given both that human proclivity of remembering and the impact which the
> first Easter brought to the followers of Jesus, it is surprising, perhaps
> even amazing, that the New Testament does not seem to know where the
> disciples were when whatever the experience occurred that we came to call
> “the resurrection of Jesus.”  The gospels simply do not agree on the
> disciples’ location when Easter dawned in their conscious awareness.  There
> are two centers that appear to compete for the honor, one is Galilee and
> the other is Jerusalem.  Let me now go through the available biblical data
> and lay out the evidence contained therein.
>
> We start with Paul because he is the first author of any book or work that
> is today contained in the New Testament.  Paul, however, turns out not to
> be particularly helpful.  He gives us no location for any of his
> “witnesses.”  All he tells us is that Peter was the first to see and then
> “the Twelve.”  Clearly their natural setting would be Galilee since all of
> them were in fact Galileans.  We are told, however, that they did go to
> Jerusalem for the Passover so they could have been in Jerusalem.  If the
> connection between Passover and the crucifixion is a liturgical
> interpretation more than a historical recollection, as I have previously
> suggested, the argument would be stronger that the “appearances” to which
> Paul is referring were events that happened in Galilee.  The best we can
> say, however, is that the witness of Paul on this issue is ambivalent and
> so we move on.
>
> Turning to Mark, the earliest gospel (70-72), we find the anomaly to which
> I have previously referred, namely, that this original gospel does not
> relate a resurrection appearance by Jesus to anyone.  Mark has only a tomb
> story that would clearly be in Jerusalem, but at the tomb the women find
> the grave empty and they hear a proclamation from one who is described only
> as “a young man in a white robe,” who tells them that Jesus has been raised
> and who then directs the women to tell the disciples that Jesus “goes
> before you to Galilee and there you will see him as he said unto you.”  The
> last few words in this quotation refer back to an earlier text in Mark in
> which Jesus predicts that the disciples will be scattered, but “after I am
> raised up I will go before you into Galilee.”  It is clear that Mark
> believes that the disciples would and did encounter the risen Christ in
> Galilee.  It is also clear to biblical scholars that Mark’s gospel ends at
> 16:8 and that both the shorter ending (16:9-10), an account of an
> appearance to Magdalene, and the longer ending (16:14-20), which recounts
> an appearance “to the Eleven” are added to Mark many years later, probably
> in the second century, in an attempt to harmonize Mark with the other
> gospels.  The earliest manuscripts of Mark did not contain these additions
> and they are universally regarded in the world of biblical scholarship as
> inauthentic.  So we have a probable vote in Paul and an overt suggestion in
> Mark that Galilee is the place where the disciples are located when the
> meaning of Easter comes to them and captures them.
>
> Matthew is a further witness to the Galilean tradition.  This second
> gospel, written in the early to mid eighties, however, does contradict
> Mark, whose gospel he obviously has in hand and from which he draws much of
> his material, by suggesting that the women saw the raised Jesus at the
> tomb.  That would be a witness to the Jerusalem tradition.  Mark had said
> that they did not.  Luke agrees with Mark and says the women did not see
> him, so Matthew’s contrary view is highly suspect.  Matthew, however, does
> agree that it was only in Galilee that “the Twelve” have a resurrection
> experience.  This, in fact, is the first biblical account of the risen
> Christ appearing to the disciples anywhere.  Matthew, having heard by now
> the story of the defection of Judas, calls them “the Eleven.”  This
> Matthean narrative is, however a very strange one.  The risen Christ who
> appears is not a physically-resuscitated body, but rather a transformed and
> glorified one, and though the ascension story had not yet been written, he
> is clearly an ascended, heavenly being.  He comes out of the clouds to a
> mountain top.  Matthew says that Jesus had directed the disciples to this
> particular mountain, though there is no indication as to when that
> direction was given.  Then in that Galilean setting, Jesus is said to have
> given the great commission: “Go into all the world.”  This was the first
> time that a suggestion was made that the raised Christ had spoken to
> anyone.  Matthew, though ambivalent is surely in the Galilee column.
>
> Luke counters the Galilean tradition sharply.  The resurrection of Jesus
> for him is a Jerusalem area only event.  In Luke the women do not see Jesus
> at the tomb, but Cleopas and his unnamed traveling companion experience him
> in the breaking of bread in the village of Emmaus, less than six miles from
> Jerusalem.   Luke later tells us that the raised Christ has also appeared
> to Peter, presumably that was also in Jerusalem.  Finally, according to
> Luke, Jesus appears to all the disciples in the afternoon of Easter Day,
> bids them peace, identifies himself clearly, asks for food to eat, opens
> their minds to understand the scriptures, directs them to remain in
> Jerusalem until “empowered” from on high and then departs.  Luke
> specifically denies any Galilean experience connected with Easter.
>
> When we come to the Fourth Gospel, Jesus first appears to Mary at the
> tomb, then to the disciples that evening in Jerusalem in a locked and
> barred room without Thomas being present.  One week later, still in
> Jerusalem, John tells us that Jesus appears again to the disciples, but
> this time with Thomas present.  That is where the gospel of John seems to
> end.  Then, however, we have an epilogue, relating yet another appearance
> to the disciples, but this time it is much later and it is in Galilee by
> the Sea of Galilee, and with this narrative the epilogue ends.
>
> That is the biblical data and it reveals significant conflict about where
> the disciples were, physically, when Easter was dawned on them.  Paul
> probably, Mark by inference and Matthew specifically say that the disciples
> were in Galilee when they “saw” the risen Christ.  Luke refutes that and
> makes the Jerusalem area the sole locale of resurrection.  John supports
> Luke in the Fourth Gospel itself, but in the attached epilogue, the scene
> is clearly Galilee.  With such inconclusive data, our next step is to look
> at the various accounts of the resurrection in each of the two locales.
> When we do that the scales begin to tilt toward Galilee for a number of
> reasons.  The Galilean narratives are vague, primitive and mysterious and
> thus appear to be original.  They express something of the stunned and
> startled response that feels natural in those circumstances.  In the
> Jerusalem narratives, the miraculous has been heightened and the body has
> become quite physical.  The resurrected body of Jesus can even be touched
> and handled.  Only in the Jerusalem stories does the risen Christ do such
> physical things as eat, walk, talk and interpret scripture.  By every
> measurement, Galilee seems to be original and Jerusalem seems to be a later
> development.
>
> We have one final test.  Remembering that no gospel is written except in
> the light of the resurrection, we examine some other stories in the gospels
> that are set in Galilee and which seem to have resurrection themes attached
> to them.  The accounts of Jesus walking on the water and stilling the storm
> are both Galilean stories.  The narrative of the disciples confessing Jesus
> as messiah has a Galilean setting.  Jesus being transfigured before their
> eyes together with the long- deceased Moses and Elijah is set in Galilee.
> All of these narratives have a numinous, mysterious quality about them.
> These are the data that tip our conclusion toward an original Galilean
> setting.  It is far easier to understand how the resurrection experience
