Words and the word
Maggi writes about the way we treat the Bible – from the old family Bible that was a talisman recording births, marriages and deaths, through the most-holy and unapproachable Word, to the mainstream Christian view of the Bible.
within our belief system the scriptures are not a Holy BOOK as such. Rather, they are a collection of books that convey the knowledge of something, someone, Holy…Ultimately the book itself it is dispensible, because it is not deemed to be the words (literally) of God, but a witness to the Word of God (Jesus Christ). There will be no Bible on a stand in Heaven.
