"Pantheism" is how YOU labeled it. I merely said what the author was writing about is straight from the Bible....in all the "I in Christ, Christ in me" and Body of Christ verses.These verses in no way promotes pantheism which is nothing but a twisted counterfeit of the new life in Christ which the scriptures show is experienced by a believer in Jesus Christ.
A few (for your reference):
John 14:20
"In that day you will know that I am in My Father, and you in Me, and I in you.
John 17:23
I in them and You in Me, that they may be perfected in unity, so that the world may know that You sent Me, and loved them, even as You have loved Me.
Ephesians 3:17-19
So that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; and that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled up to all the fullness of God.
1st Corinthians 12:27
Now you are the body of Christ, and each of you is a member of it.
1st Corinthians 12:12
The body is a unit, though it is comprised of many parts. And although its parts are many, they all form one body. So it is with Christ.
I see support for panENtheism in the Bible--which is a bit different than pantheism.
>>>The Greek Church Fathers referred to the transcendence of God as God's "essence" (ousia) and the immanence of God as his "energies" (energeia). In 553, at the Second Council of Constantinople, the universal Church proclaimed a panentheistic vision of the Trinity, developed from St. Paul's writing in Ephesians: "There is One God and Father from whom all things are, one Lord Jesus Christ through whom all things are, and one Holy Spirit in whom all things are." God is in all things, for they spring from him, and all things are in God, for they subsist in him, yet he transcends all as well as emanates in all.~Biblical Panentheism: God in all things
