The City of water

@divegeester

48 hours latter and what I wrote above still holds about YOUR ultimatum.
That was your ultimatum not mine.

I don't think that should be your motivation necessarily.

I think you should see the fact though I agree with you that the exact words are not in any biblical text.

Praise God for the divine life symbolized in the Bible by water. And a chief characteristic of the final New Jerusalem is living water. (Rev. 22:1,2 ,17)

We do not need to depend on an ad populum logical fallacy.

Praise God for the city of water where for eternity the Redeemer, the God-man Jesus will lead His saved to fountains of waters of life.

They will not hunger anymore, neither will they thirst anymore, neither will the sun beat upon them, nor any heat;

For the Lamb who is in the midst of the throne will shepherd them and guide them to springs of waters of life; and God shall wipe away every tear from their eyes." (Revelation 7:16,17)

Do most Unitarians behave like you do? I mean on one hand posture like you're a stickler for only what is exactly phrased in the Bible text but on the other have a kind of contempt for the authority of the Bible's text over any sacred writing?

SACRED TEXTS IN UNITARIAN UNIVERSALISM

One might say that life is our scripture. While Unitarianism and Universalism both have roots in the Protestant Christian tradition, where the Bible is the sacred text, we now look to additional sources for religious and moral inspiration. Over two centuries, our religious tradition, a “living tradition,” has branched out from its roots. We celebrate the spiritual insights of the world’s religions, recognizing wisdom in many scriptures.

When we read scripture in worship, whether it is the Bible, the Dhammapada, or the Tao Te-Ching, we interpret it as a product of its time and its place. There is wisdom there, and there are inspiring stories, but scripture is not to be interpreted narrowly or oppressively. It can be beautiful, inspirational and wise. But in our tradition, scripture is never the only word, or the final word.
