Theology is Poetry

Theology is poetry
Even a good story needs a good storyteller

“When I think of the three,
I think of the one,
And when I think of the one,
I think of the three,
And then my eyes fill with tears and I lose all sense of where I am”
~Gregory of Nyssa

“Its not so much that Jesus is Godlike, but rather that God is actually Christlike (God is Christlike and in Him there is no un-Christlikeness at all)… From now, on all true perspectives about God must pass through the lens of a man called Jesus of Nazareth… All theology must now be understood through Christology.” The Shaping of Things to Come, 37
