PASTORS LETTER

Greetings fellow pilgrims,


As many of you know, I recently returned
from a two week pilgrimage to the Holy
Land. This pilgrimage was part of my three
year commitment to a pastoral spiritual support group of which I am a part called Macedonian Ministries. This ministry, which is
fully funded by the Cousins Foundation in
Atlanta, seeks to spiritually support groups
of middle career pastors as they enter the
next season of their ministries.
Sounds exciting right? Although, prior to
my journey I was not so excited. Not only
did I have the concerns of the church
weighing on my heart, I also had been to the
Holy Land two other times. I thought, How
will this trip be different? Well it was different and it was a great joy to be on this pilgrimage. There were several things that
made this journey wonderful. I was surrounded by colleagues who have similar experiences. We were led by one of the nations leading biblical archeologists, Max
Miller, who was able to connect scripture to
the sites we were seeing. One of Maxs most
used phrases was, tradition says Which
means, we dont have any archeological
proof that it actually happened at this site.
He said, tradition says, many more times
than he said, this is the place.
Hearing, tradition says, so often I began to
think about my faith. As I walked through
archeological site after site I began to think
about what my faith is built upon. Have I
built my faith on having to say this is the exact spot where Jesus was born, or preached,
or died, or was buried? Have I built my faith

on tradition says or have I built it on faith and


trust. It was nice to go back to Galilee, Nazareth
and Jerusalem to see the sites, but I learned very
quickly that my faith is not built on these fallen
stones, but is built on the life and teachings of
Jesus of Nazareth. The one I have come to know
as the Messiah.
As neat as it is to be able to say, this may be the
exact spot where Jesus Whats more impressive, to me, is to just stand and look over the
places and hear the history of the land where
Jesus walked, sought justice, kindness, and mercy for all of Gods children. So as you journey on
your pilgrimage of faith, may your faith be built
not on the tradition of the rocks but on your
faith in the One who walked, taught and died
on these rocks.
With faith in Christ,

CONGREGATIONAL CARE
Missing You Already
I believe that God brought me to Ft. King Presbyterian Church 9 1/2 years ago. It has been a dream mission for
me having the wonderful Ft. King family to consider as my own and to serve the church in all of its many and
varied activities. I have loved the journey.
I am looking forward to retirement and all the experiences that are in store for me in the next phase of my life. I
am, at the same time, filled with regret at having to saying good-bye to the day to day workings of the church.
I did not want to leave without trying to express how much you all mean to me. When I first came to Ft. King,
when someone would say that they loved me, I would be taken aback and not be able to say that I loved them in
return. You all have taught me the meaning of Christian love and I thank you for your generosity and Gods
guidance for giving me this tremendous growth opportunity. I love all of you.
I pray that God guides a wonderful person to Ft. King to support all of you and the good ministry of the church.
Blessings, Chris Muramatsu

Mr. PeeWee Therapy Dog


Pictures speak a thousand words, so I don't know what to say except we are enjoying the interaction with
all the folks we are lucky enough to visit. We visit 20 to 30 residents at Emeritus East, including the Alzheimer's unit. Obviously, we get more out of bringing smiles to folks with Mr. PeeWee, than they would
ever know. It is good therapy for them and even better therapy for Mel and me. Melvin had no idea he
would enjoy going to Emeritus East so much! We look forward to it every Thursday morning. We also took
Mr. PeeWee over there on Halloween. Mr. PeeWee and I were good pirates. Arrrrrrf!
We are volunteers at Wyomina Park Elementary School. This past April Mr.PeeWee and I went there to
visit the 5 kindergarten classes and do a little half hour program with each class talking about pet responsibility; reading them a story book about a dog that was rescued at a shelter; and answering their questions
about Mr. PeeWee's own rescue story. He was rescued in Mississippi by us, and he had a dislocated hip and
an umbilical hernia to be repaired as soon as we returned to Ocala the next day.
He and I passed 4 certifications of obedience including the Canine Good Citizen training certificate, recognized by the state of Florida, so that we could be a therapy dog to senior communities, schools, and our
church. This training was made possible by a grant from a friend of ours, at no cost to our church. So, if we
can brighten your day with a visit from us and Mr. Pee Wee, we will be glad to do so. Call Jean at 352-6251667.

WORSHIP (continued)

Tonie and I in 1957, Ready for the Church Christmas Pageant at St. Paul Church.

Reunion!
At the end of this month, I will be in New Orleans for a very special occasion. It will be the 175th anniversary
of the church I attended until I was 12. St. Pauls Lutheran Church was founded in 1840, along with a school.
It was started by a group of German immigrants. The church is quite beautiful and the stained glass windows
are magnificent. I was baptized in this church, had my first communion in this church, went to the church
school until the 9th grade and played the organ for the first time for our schools weekly chapel service when I
was 11 years old. It holds a lot of memories for me and I have life-long friends and classmates that still worship
at St. Pauls. In fact, some of their grandchildren go to the school today.
It will be a lot of fun to see all my friends at the school celebration on Saturday, February 28th and then worship with them on Sunday, March 1st. Im especially excited about playing the organ for that special anniversary service. Of course, it will be a grand arrangement of Martin Luthers A Mighty Fortress Is Our God.
As I was thinking about seeing my buddies, I began to wonder what some of them would look like since I
had not seen some of them for 50 years. I know I havent changed much just a little older with white hair, a
little heavier, too. Then there is my first girlfriend, Tonie. When I was 5, I told her Grandmother not to
worry about Tonie anymore, I would take care of her. Weve been friends ever since. Im really excited
about seeing everyone and talking old times. But I also have some apprehension: what will it be?
A familiar hymn came to mind while I was thinking about the reunion, Face to Face. You know, you can
talk to folks on the telephone, write letters and so forth, but theres nothing like being with them face to face.
Face to face with Christ, my Savior,
Face to face, what will it be,
When with rapture I behold Him,
Jesus Christ Who died for me?
Only faintly now I see Him,
With the darkened veil between,
But a bless'd day is coming,
When His glory shall be seen.

WORSHIP (continued)
Face to face - the second verse is so revealing to me because right now, there is quite a distance between me
and my former classmates. And there has certainly been a few decades since Ive seen them. Only faintly
can I imagine them with the darkened veil between. And its the same with Christ. I can only imagine
what my reunion with him will be. But a blessd day is coming, when His glory shall be seen.
What rejoicing in His presence,
When are banished grief and pain;
When the crooked ways are straightened
And the dark things shall be plain.
I know Im going to have a good time being with all of them. There will be laughter, some good tears as we
recall the days of the past, and sadness at the loss of some of our classmates. But Ill bet there will be more
rejoicing when we get together.

Face to face the third verse indicates to me just how this reunion will be: rejoicing in the joy of being together again. The unknown occurrences in our lives will be made plain. The grief and pain of classmates
who have passed on will be banished. This is just as it will be when we come face to face with Christ
What rejoicing in His presence!
A lot of information will be shared. A load of questions will be asked and answered. What do they look like
now will certainly be revealed. And then there will be the lets stay in touch and well all go our way.

Face to face It will be a wonderful time. It will be time of bliss. It will be a time of seeing each other. It
will be a time of knowing more about each other. My class was very unique. You see, we started our journey
together in September, 1954 in Kindergarten and we graduated together as 9th graders in June, 1965. We
bonded. We were like family. We loved each other, and still do.
Face to face, oh, blissful moment!
Face to face, to see and know;
Face to face with my Redeemer,
Jesus Christ Who loves me so.
So it is with our reunion with Christ. What a glorious time! Face to face and all things revealed. Face to
face with my Redeemer. Face to face with Jesus Christ Who loves me, and you so!
With a song in my heart,
Rick

Something To Think About
Deception
Genesis 12:10-20
Because of a famine in Canaan, Abraham decided to go to Egypts greener pastures so he wouldnt go
hungry. He convinced his young wife, Sarah (we are told elsewhere she would have been +/- 65 years old!),
because she was a beautiful woman (v. 11), that the Egyptians would kill Abraham (her husband) so the Pharaoh could have her (see Genesis 26: Isaac does the same thing with his wife Rebecah). There is no historical
evidence in Egypt for this kind of behavior; it is, however, recorded in II Samuel II that David had Uriah killed
so he could have Bathsheba, since she was already pregnant by David. Abrahams reasoning with Sarah, the
clincher of his argument, was this: he would say that Sarah was his sister so that it may go well with me be-

cause of you, and my life may be spared on your account. Incredible!!!!


When plagues struck Pharaohs house, he figured things out and threw them both out of Egypt. In the
meantime, Abraham had racked up for himself some wealth in cattle, in silver, and in gold, so he did quite
well while his sister was Pharaohs concubine! Abraham thought that he simply had no choice:
choice it is lie or
die! and then were told it took Yahweh-Gods own involvement to clean up the mess Abraham had left behind!
Sisela Bok (1978 Lying: Moral Choice in Public and Private Life) has made keen observations: All de-

ceptive messages, whether or not they are lies, can be more or less affected by self-deception, by error, and by
variations in the actual intention to deceive (op cit. 15). As with Abraham, I must be convinced that a situation is potentially harmful to me upon which I build my deception, and I must persuade others to see reality
as I see it, in order to gain their cooperation and to protect myself from harm: I have no choice (recall the
Nuremberg Tribunal beginning in 1945).

The essence of deception is distraction an act of kindness, generosity, or honesty (Robert Greene
1998 The 48 Laws of Power 91 f.). To be successful in putting something over on someone, one has to make it
look as if something is to be gained for himself (op cit. 55). And this is a tactic everyone can use!
use Well, maybe. Plato presented his case for who should lie and get away with it in his Republic Book III 389:
If anyone at all is to have the privilege of lying, the rulers of the State should be the persons; and they,
in their dealings with enemies or their own citizens,
citizens may be allowed to lie for the public good. But nobody else should meddle with anything of the kind If the ruler catches anybody beside himself lying in
the State he will punish him for introducing a practice which is equally subversive and destructive of
ship or State.
Only a leader can lie? Really? F. Nietzsche in his Will to Power made it quite clear what was expected of the
common folk, oh yes! the morality of truthfulness in the herd:

You shall be knowable, express your inner nature by clear and constant signs otherwise you are dangerous your ability to dissimulate is the worst thing for the herd you may not be concealed from
yourself (277, 1883-1888). You must be an open book!

10

WORSHIP (continued)
Mistrust becomes a source of making people say the truth; if you want me to trust you, you must be
truthful with me! (op cit. 211). Plato was a target for Nietzsche as the man who preferred mental inventions,
appearance, as more real than actual reality; so, if you want me to trust you, you must be truthful with me!
(op cit. 278 1885). But, how would I ever know? Needless to say, he regarded institutional ecclesiastical
Christianity as the most fatal seductive lie that has yet existed, as the great unholy lie (200, 1887,
1888). He even refers to those who serve the institution as lying little abortions of bigots (200, Wow!);
and to refer to a Christian State, or Christian politics means that God is Chief of Staff (211). So why
pay any attention to Plato?
We would be remiss if Machiavelli The Prince (1515 CE) were not included. His attitude about people was direct:

Men are so simple, and so much creatures of circumstance, that the deceiver will always find someone ready to be deceived (op cit. XVIII).
A Prince should appear to be upright, sober, strong, courageous (op cit. XIX); if he needs to be opposite,
since he is already play-acting anyway, he knows how to do it! Ybetcha! Or, as Greene put it: a deceiver has
to appear the paragon of decency while being the commensurate manipulator (Greene op cit. xxii).
Scholars think that Jesus statement in Matthew 5:37 (see independently James 5:12), Your response
should be yes and no, otherwise was said to avoid the problem of self-justification and deception of
both oneself and another. Also highlighted is Pilates question to Jesus (John 18:38): What is truth? Pilate
was not being flippant: What is truth for you may not be truth for me! Indeed, since Pilate had the power of
the Roman Empire in his hand, he had the truth, and that truth is what counted. If this is how it works in
human society, its a wonder we have any society at all.
Frans de Waal of Emory University wrote that there are three aspects for mutual cooperation between
primates:
cooperation does not require family ties;
cooperation is often based on reciprocity and,
cooperation may be motivated by empathy We identify with others in need, pain or dis-

tress.
Humans are the only species to cooperate with outsiders and strangers. Not only do humans have the capacity to create and execute large-scale projects; they also have friends by frequent interaction and have
the ability to impose punishment on those who cheat the system to which we submit because we are hypersensitive to public opinion.(my emphasis)
(Frans de Waal One for All in September 2014 Scientific American Vol. 311, 3, pages 68-71).
Really? The statement sounds as if a dominant point of view re cooperation can be coerced. We, in the
Church, need to think through the meaning of Jesus I am the way, the truth, and the life (John 14:6), and
what it means to be a fellowship in Christ.
Is the truth located in so many propositions about Jesus, or in what He said and did in his life?
Ought the truth to be coerced? OK. There are forests of different viewpoints about what is essential to be
identified as a Christian. I prefer to be called a follower of Jesus (Mark 2:14). In any case, we must be very
careful that we any of us! do not misrepresent Jesus and engage in deceptive words and behaviors that are
only consistent with our society/culture in order to maintain the life of the institutional Church. We need to
be more self-critical. A lot to think about.
Shalom,
Tom
