Happy Reformation Day!

[Lutheranian]

Today we sung two great Luther hymns, A Mighty Fortress, and Lord Keep Us Stradfast in Thy Word.

Bonnie. I think you are onto something with this idea!☕

You are sounding like you have an upper room Christology problem buried in there somewhere.😁

That's a ribbing comment towards some Reformed who insist Jesus entered through a window into the upper room when the door was locked on the evening immediately after the resurrection.

My comment referred to Christianity coming to the Aztec.

Would you further elaborate please?

As a Catholic, I was observing the closing of one door [reformation] and the opening of another [bringing Christianity to the Aztec -- who sacrificed millions].

Well,, it would still be a miracle if He flew through an upper room window into the room where the disciples were. However, the text seems to make it clear that the room was shut tight, for fear of the religious leaders. Plus, I think the text says that Jesus appeared suddenly in their midst--seems to me that if He had come through the window, the Gospel would have mentioned that. But somehow, Jesus never struck me as a second-story kind of guy....

I believe to think of him more as a good climber would be the expectation.

I have another theory but it involves technology (more ribbing for another to remain nameless) not yet invented in the name of a transporter.😁 energize 👽

Was this Mayan or Aztec, or were they similar in this regard do you know?
By the way a very disturbing movie for my taste.

Mayan... but they both sacrificed people for their gods
