The Hidden Christ (I don't know, we'll find out)

I'm starting a new study. (http://www.bruderhof.com/e-books/HiddenChrist.htm) Its 72 pages so who knows if it will actually happen. Here's some quotes so far...
"Jesus claims the whole world for his own, not just the Christian world" (I think so)
"No one is separated from Christ—neither the “unchurched” nor the “heathen,” and especially not the oppressed." Being with all these "Gaia" people lately, connection is something I've been thinking about lately. I don't think we are all one absoluetly (obviously) BUT I do often think we are a lot more connected than we think. I like being able to think and reason independently from both sides of the debate. So many people tend to go to the extremes of arguements. And its not like I pick "the middle road" or like i'm even "luke warm" shall we say. Its like where does this thought come from and this thought come from and what may be over looked. Maybe me, and God, and the pencil are not the same being but what about us connects us. I like that becuase it's more of a question/answer than a closed answer, to me that means there is always room for growth.
"What, then, was Wilhelm’s task in China? It was to carry into the world, particularly the non-Christian world, “the gospel of Jesus Christ, not the gospel of the Christians.” " Am I just going to copy the whole book or something? Okay nothing else, I think my thinking must be really shallow becuase I just copy the quotes instead of just writing what i've learned. bleh
