Kingdom of God

So all that remains for this, the eighth installment of my Advanced Workshop essay comparing New Age spirituality and Christianity, is to offer you the conclusion.

The word limit for the essay was 3000 words ± 10%, and so, as with almost all my essays, I went flying past the 3000 words and had to try really hard to end up with the final work count of 3,299 words!

The result is that my conclusion is more functional than I would have liked - nothing more than a summary of the argument. I would liked to have given some conluding thoughts more than just summarise the essays, but that's the limits of word counts! Maybe I'll offer some concluding thoughts here on the site somewhere in my next few posts. Maybe you have some concluding thoughts yourself - if so, leave a comment.

So, without further ado, here's the conclusion.

Today is the seventh installment of my Advanced Workshop essay comparing New Age spirituality and Christianity.

In the previous installment I began looking at the Aquarian understanding of the nature of reality, looking in particular at Aquarian notions of God and the self. Today's episode takes this on further to understanding the role of a faith community and to questions of ethics.

Ok, so here's the fifth installment of my Advanced Workshop essay comparing New Age spirituality and Christianity.

Today's post carries on from examining why we're talking about an 'aquarian age' by asking about Aquarian eschatology - if the Kingdom of God is understood as 'now' but 'not yet', what are Aquarian notions of the ultimate destiny of humanity?

I you're just entering at this point, you may like to read for your yourself the title and some of the background thoughts to this essay, or catch up by reading the introduction, about why it's a 'new age' and why that new age might be considered and aquarian age.
