Directly From Pastor Coleman Glenn of The Dawson Creek New Church.
"The New Church believes – based on passages in Arcana Coelestia and several other works – that in the strictest sense, “The Word” is limited to the books of the Bible that are written in such a way to contain an infinitely deep internal meaning throughout, that is entirely about the Lord and His kingdom. According to Swedenborg, although Acts and the Epistles are true, they do not contain this infinite depth of meaning, and so in that sense do not make up the Word."
(note in red how Swedenborg takes precedence over God in Coleman's case almost always so)

I am so glad that Pastor Glenn is blogging in this way because it gives me an opportunity to prove my point about those in the New Church not all but the Dawson Creek New Church they put their own selfish desires and man before God much as Rachel did. Coleman is biased and loves to put down others and anyone that doesnt think like him he has to put them down so why not expose him worldwide and share these essays I have with other people of faith. Pastors like him are the reason people wont come to the New Church because he is not very open minded. When he tries to be he is backhanded and speaks in straw man and double speak. It is like a serpents forked tongue. Why name your blog "Good and Truth" when you practice neither. You are too busy being judgmental, uncaring, and self centered like a god. Humanity as Divinity! You might as well go stand on Mt. Olympus!!! Here is another example in his blog of having to put down people who might be radical when his faith is just as radical.
"One book that helped me enormously in understanding the epistles – or at least, the epistles of Paul – has been The Theology of Paul the Apostle, by James D.G. Dunn. Dunn is universally recognized as one of the world’s foremost living authorities on Paul, so this is not some obscure text by a fringe theologian."
My Coleman we are just the most judgmental Pastor ever arent we? It is like the pot calling the kettle black. Fringe theologian. What exactly are you? I don't see your name on the forefront of anything but a bunch of ideas you bounce back and forth within the New Church so some might look at you on the fringe of theology too. I really can't wait for you to blog more because you are showing your true colors. It is like a comedian waiting to get great material and you will feed my arsenal. Please continue to show us how you put man over God and how you, Rachel Myatt, and others basically follow a man who has ghost written behind the Bible: The TRUE WORD OF GOD and made up his own set of rules to indulge in selfish desires of the flesh and hedonism. You see Pastor Coleman it is because you deny parts of the Bible you do not recieve its knowlegde nor the message it brings to us. How dare you ever put me down or try to act like you are better than me? You see that is why I continue loving people even people like you who treat me like an enemy. You spend so much time trying to prove others wrong and talk about how other Christians are false. Maybe you need to take some time and look in the mirror. Coleman.
There are plenty of things that are irrelevent in our time and day that are in the Bible but you admit to basically passing off parts of the New Testament as "Good" also remember just as I do not claim or have an extensive knowledge of New Church theology just because you have Theology degree from the Church of the New Jerusalem does not make you an expert in anyone elses life or love of God. So just remember how you treated me and how you downplayed my love of God and then maybe open that book the one that was truly inspired by God not the one by Swedenborg and realize why what is happening to you is happening. I had nothing but respect for you and you had none for me and so to show where you are flawed in treating others like they are ignorant or as if you are on some pedastool above them is justified.
So go ahead Pastor Glenn blog away I will be sharing your message with lots of people all over the world along with telling how you as a Pastor treated me along with Rachel. :)
