There was a Bible held up by a sword of glass called Truth. Fighting broke out in the land and that sword left. It was replaced by a thin, dark, deceitful sword called Humanism to hold up the Bible.

(That's a dream I had last night.)

I was talking about humanism at our the dinner table, with this quote from Shakespeare:

“There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy!”

(Don't you just love Shakespeare?)

At this house, we are going to read our Bible in truth. That dream reminds me to not slip in to explaining the Bible in humanist terms. I can also of course see the ramifications of this dream in what has already taken place across this country and in our churches.
