Get Healthy With Non GMO Theology!
These days people are paying a lot of attention to healthy living. Let’s all get some exercise, eat a balanced diet, avoid stress and get enough sleep! We think these are sensible steps for anyone who wants to stay healthy and avoid preventable suffering and disease. Avoiding GMOs (genetically modified foods) and harmful chemical additives has likewise become an important part of our national conversation about health. These concerns aren’t just for a few health nuts and fitness fanatics! These are mainstream issues that most people are aware of now. We think it’s also about time for people to start avoiding man made theological additives and get healthy with Non GMO theology.
Are There Any Unhealthy Additives in Your Theology?
You may be thinking, “Hey! My theology is officially approved by a lot of knowledgeable people!” We’re thinking, “Hey! Just to make sure, let’s take a look at the ingredients in your theology in the same way we would look at the ingredients in the food you buy. Are there any unhealthy additives in your theology?” Unless you actually look at the ingredients in your food (and your beliefs about God), you won’t know if they contain any toxic additives or ingredients that could be bad for you! If your spiritual nutrition is contaminated with man-made additives (ideas) that no one even really understands, that’s a big red flag!
What Are the Ingredients in Your Theology?
Most nutritionists agree that the best foods are simple, unprocessed and free of unnatural substances and human meddling. Many modern believers are beginning to argue that these very same qualities are essential features of the things we choose to believe. How about your spiritual nutrition? What are the ingredients in your theology?
The Ingredients of a Truly Healthy Theology
We think the only safe teachings to include in your beliefs about God are those that are directly and explicitly taught in scripture! The Word of God is pure, holy and guaranteed to do you good. Jesus said, “The words that I speak are Spirit and they are life.” We can’t say as much for the words of the ancient philosopher/theologians we call the Church Fathers. Christ’s teachings are the ingredients of a truly healthy theology that will bring you life, understanding and peace. You can trust His words. There are some theological ingredients though that scripture calls toxic. They are dangerous you should avoid them!
Common Ingredients Found in Toxic Theology
“Beware lest men spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit after the tradition of men.” (Colossians 2:8) One translation renders this as the “high sounding nonsense that comes from human thinking.” What in the world is this talking about? Are there some things we should beware of in our theology? The Apostle Paul certainly thought so! Is your theology contaminated with complex philosophical thoughts and unhealthy jargon? Does your theology depend on notions like God’s “substance or essence”? Or ideas like homoousious, prosopon, persona, divine persons, triune, co-equal, co-eternal, and eternal begetting? These are just some of the ideas that hold up the trinity. None of them are found anywhere in the Bible but they are the common ingredients found in toxic theology. They are also the main ingredients of the trinity.
Healthy Non GMO Theology
Here are the main ingredients of healthy Non GMO theology: There is just one God. He is the God of Abraham and the God of Moses. His name is YHWH. Jesus Christ (who is the Anointed One, our Savior and the Messiah) is God’s only begotten human son and He called YHWH His Father. Jesus never claimed to be God Himself but He did claim to be the Christ. The rulers of Israel hated Him and crucified Him to preserve their own prestige and importance. He died for our sake at their hands but rose from the dead and now sits at the right hand of God the Father. Best of all He is coming back! When He does every eye will see Him, every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord (Adoni) to the glory of God the Father (Adonai). Now this, dear friends, is truly healthy Non GMO theology. All the ingredients are biblical and they are all good for you.
