Divine Protection

Divine Protection

This came to me via Bob Cargill and Thom Stark on Facebook. It nicely makes the point that many Christian views of โ€œsalvationโ€ are more like โ€œprotectionโ€ in the sense that word has in protection rackets. The one โ€œprotectingโ€ you is also the one they are protecting you from.

Perhaps genuine salvation ought to save us first and foremost from imagining God and/or Jesus as being like a human gangster?
