Thank you for sharing this. He was a delight and a terror as a college professor, too.

Superb. Thank you for sharing. It would have been so exciting to have worked w Johnathan Smith.

Did Smith tell you about his use of the Bible tokens for the repentance ritual?

Learned the all religions are parochial cultural narrative storytelling? 🤔

John 14:26, 14:6, 3:3-5, repent,
Ecclesiastes 4:12, A rope made of three cords is hard to break.
1 John 5:7-8, For there are three that bear record in Heaven, The Father, The Word, and The Holy Ghost, and these three are one.
And there are three that bear witness in earth, The Spirit, and The Water, and The Blood, and these three agree in one.
Shalom
