Title: gneo-gnostic gnonsense
Review: The title says it all, although the book itself is cause for alarm.Yes, the Lord did teach in parables, but he explained everything to his disciples. These disciples in turn gave us the rest of the New Testament to elaborate what Jesus meant by "Kingdom of God".This is where Mcclaren is way off base. He limits his ideas to the Sermon on the Mount, parables of yeast and seed, etc. When an author is spot off, it shows everywhere in all he says and believes and passes off on others.Secret Message? We need Mcclaren to decode it for us.Uncovering the real Truth? We need also Dan Brown's Davinci Code to get at the hidden facts behind conservative evangelical creeds & confessions.That could Change Everything? This neo-gnostic gnonsense will only change those who have largely abandoned the Gospel of the Crucified Messiah who shed his blood to pay for our sins and earn the right to be the planet's Chief Justice on Judgment Day.
