Greenbody of Christ

When I was a child my evangelical family went to People's CoOperative Bible Church, to rapturously pray and praise our privileged preachy partialness, political and economic and social and environmental, spiritual against physical apartheid of superior, divinely-inspired, theology, Yet, somehow rooted in mission-driven competitions against the fullness of non-sectarian time sufficient to bring inclusive nutrients, liquid and capital-hoarded assets for future rainy blizzard blustering dominant days, at least six per week severed from Sabbath's cooperatively wondrous Kingdom at open-systemic nurturing hand, Celebrated by declaring our victorious Communion on God's glorious not capital-driven work on Sunday seated in humble chairs of classroom youth, eventually wooden pews of adult authority in our small segregated AllWhite People's Sectarian Bible Church. I recall not even one Sunday School lesson about what the Holy Historical Body of Christ might have to do with our potential Green MultiCulturing Spirit of Healing Christianity, Nothing about tensions between communion and monocultural supremacist apartheid, Nothing about walls between WinWin healthy sacred interdependence and WinLose stringent secular autonomy of capitalism, Nothing about Great NonTransitional Divides between cooperative passions and competitive dispassions, between Heavenly to-gatherness and too much Earthly apartness, between celebration of health and holocaust of anthro-centric pathology. Maybe I missed that non-violence teaching Sunday, But I did not miss experiential theology lessons of tensions between heterosexual patriarchal monocultural evangelism and Heaven's vast radically inclusive promise of a polycultural non-apartheid eternal communioned outcome for Earth-dwellers, especially for child-like peacemakers, Holy Spirit inheritors, regenerators, co-messiahs within this one secular/sacred Body of Christ. Active hope for such enchanting holistic bodies and spirits of vulnerable and transparently loving Messianic Missions, in the West, and Bodhisattva PeaceWarriors, in the East, felt, even then, as a child, like emotionally interdependent enchanting intelligence. Perhaps, if we could all arrive in everyday Sabbath Heaven, in absence of six-day capital over-invested apartheid, we might discern warmer inviting Lights are also Truths and communioned Ways to sing God's/Gaia's EarthBound greening praise As when we first began in Planet's CoOperative Bible Church.
