new church life: march/april 2015
Word of the Old Testament and some have attempted an exposition of it.
But how many have been able to do so as convincingly as we find it in Arcana
Coelestia, The Apocalypse Explained and The Apocalypse Revealed?
So why join the General Church? For answers. For intellectually satisfying
answers. Even if one has not the time or temperament to seek the answers for
himself or herself, still by joining the General Church one lends support to those
who do seek answers, not only for themselves, but for the Church as a whole.
Indeed, for mankind. Support not only financial, but support socially. There is, after
all, a strength in numbers. The continued life of the General Church depends on it.
The Rev. N. Bruce Rogers was ordained in 1969, was an
associate professor of Religion and Latin in Bryn Athyn College,
and has served as a General Church translator. He and his wife,
Kirsten (Rydstrom), live in Huntingdon Valley, Pennsylvania.
