How Important is Correctness?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So as most of you can probably tell by now my theology is becoming increasingly eccentric (eccentric in the bad way not in the interesting and cool way). So here is my problem: I want to have an authentic theology; I also want to have a correct theology. The two seem antithetical right now. I simply cannot believe authentically in orthodox theology yet I recognize how bitter my own has become. Having an ironic theology full of pity satisfies my desire to square theology with my experience but puts me out of step with, well, a true (as in correct) theology. I guess I’m just a little ashamed of how bitter I’ve become but too faithful to the events which caused this bitterness to embrace anything better. So what are my chances of Heaven if I abandon all correctness? Will God understand? Wow this was a stupid post! I won’t take offence if no one responds.
INVU all (sincerely I do)

Wislawa, you are in fine company of tormented, yet brilliant souls—like the Old Testament prophets, psalmists, and our friend Cowper. You cannot go low enough or far enough from God—God will get you. God says to Jonah, “Arise, go up…” Jonah “arises” and goes down to Joppa, down to the bottom of the ship, down to the bottom of the sea itself. God gets him back on track in spite of himself. Read Hosea—God knew what he was getting himself into, and he chose you anyway. GDG
p.s. as for correctness, if correctness were important, we’d all be toast—including (especially?) those of us who are quite certain we’re correct (cf. our friends the pharisees).
