Superpastor
Superpastor is Omnipresent, Omnicient, Almighty, The Great Creator, All Loving and always Full of Grace.
Superpastor lives on a pedestal. (But pedestal,dwellers discover there is only one direction go from there. Gravity mandates that!)
Superpastor, like Superman, is a mythological figment of someone's overactive imagination.
I am not Superpastor -- but he's tried to take me on a few times.
Rob Bell, in his excellent book, Velvet Elvis, says:
I had to kill Superpastor.
I had to take him out back and end his pathetic existence. . .
And the only way to not be killed by him is to shoot first!
During this struggle, Bell wrote in his journal, "Your job is the relentless pursuit of who God has made you to be. Anything else you do is a sin, and you need to repent of it."
'Amartia -- sin - -means missing the mark.
Good thing Superpastor is a bad shot!
