Roger Wolsey shared some thoughts<\/a> about Jesus as yogi. His starting point, unsurprisingly, was the Gospel of John, ch.17, where Jesus is depicted as praying, and even after acknowledging the distinction between the only true God and himself as the one God sent, he then goes on to blur the two in mystical interrelatedness, so that he and God are one, and so too his disciples.<\/p>\n I\u2019ve mentioned before<\/a> that the idea of Jesus as mystic \u2013 as one who, like prophets and other such figures before him did at times, sought to lose himself in God, so that God\u2019s own voice could be heard through him \u2013 is one of the underexplored approaches to the Gospel of John. \u00a0There have been studies on this, but they have been relatively few and far between.<\/p>\n On Christology elsewhere in the blogosphere, see also Daniel Kirk\u2019s review series<\/a> on the Evangelical response to Ehrman<\/a>, and Dustin Martyr\u2019s ongoing review<\/a> of Ehrman\u2019s book, as well as Nijay Gupta\u2019s review series<\/a>. Daniel Kirk\u2019s post about being a son of God<\/a> is also worth reading. See too\u00a0Jim Burklo\u2019s post<\/a> that ranges from Bob Marley to Rumi to mystical intoxication with the divine, and Rachel Marszalek on the connection between Trinitarianism, subordinationism, and complementarianism<\/a>. And if you haven\u2019t seen it yet, here is but one of many recent interviews with Bart Ehrman<\/a> about his recent book on Christology (this one on NPR\u2019s Fresh Air):<\/p>\n
