Society in general seems to be growing tired of these vertical relationships. The bottom part of the pyramid is crying out for a new structure, as it suspects – often correctly – that the top of the pyramid doesn’t always have their best interests at heart.
And this discontent is affecting people’s view of religion and spirituality.
The rise of the ‘spiritual but not religious’ group is in part a rejection of this vertical theology and the religious institutions that it gave birth to.
It seems to me that Jesus challenged this Old Testament vertical theology.
Through his teaching and lifestyle he demonstrated that we no longer have to go to the temple, because Jesus is the temple,
and with his Spirit in us, so are we.
