  • GOTTA SERVE SOMEBODY Genesis 3:14-15
    joshua hartwigsen, 6.23.19 (Sunday am) GOTTA SERVE SOMEBODY Genesis 3:14-15 In 1979 Bob Dylan released the song “Gotta Serve Somebody”, selecting a matter-of-fact title that summarized his song’s refrain: “You’re gonna have to serve somebody, Yes indeed you’re gonna have to serve somebody Well, it may be the Devil or it may be the Lord But you’re gonna have to serve somebody” Although well-regarded, his song does not communicate a new idea – a long time before Dylan wrote his song, Jesus himself hinted at the same idea when he said that “no one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other” 1 (Matthew 6:24). The Bible introduces the idea of two masters in its opening chapters where it records humanity division into two groups – the offspring of the serpent and the offspring of the woman (Genesis 3:15). The remainder of the Bible develops the story of those two families and the conflict between them in a way that allows readers to identify which family they belong to while offering them a way to join God’s family, the offspring of the woman. Family feud • God made humanity in His image and gave them the responsibility to representing His rule and character within the world (Genesis 1:26-28). • Humanity’s choice, however, to submit themselves to the serpent introduced division into the world that resulted in the separation of humanity into two groups – the offspring of the serpent and the offspring of the woman (Genesis 3:1-15).

  • Romans 6:12-23 12 Therefore Do Not Let Sin Reign in Your Mortal Body So That You Obey Its Evil Desires
    Romans 6:12-23 12 Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its evil desires. 13 Do not offer any part of yourself to sin as an instrument of wickedness, but rather offer yourselves to God as those who have been brought from death to life; and offer every part of yourself to him as an instrument of righteousness. 14 For sin shall no longer be your master, because you are not under the law, but under grace. 15 What then? Shall we sin because we are not under the law but under grace? By no means! 16 Don’t you know that when you offer yourselves to someone as obedient slaves, you are slaves of the one you obey—whether you are slaves to sin, which leads to death, or to obedience, which leads to righteousness? 17 But thanks be to God that, though you used to be slaves to sin, you have come to obey from your heart the pattern of teaching that has now claimed your allegiance. 18 You have been set free from sin and have become slaves to righteousness. 19 I am using an example from everyday life because of your human limitations. Just as you used to offer yourselves as slaves to impurity and to ever-increasing wickedness, so now offer yourselves as slaves to righteousness leading to holiness. 20 When you were slaves to sin, you were free from the control of righteousness. 21 What benefit did you reap at that time from the things you are now ashamed of? Those things result in death! 22 But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves of God, the benefit you reap leads to holiness, and the result is eternal life.

  • Bob Dylan's Conversions: the “Gospel Years” As Symptom And
    chapter 6 Bob Dylan’s Conversions: The “Gospel Years” as Symptom and Transition Gisle Selnes Professor i allmenn litteraturvitenskap, universitetet i Bergen. Professor in Comparative Literature, University of Bergen, Norway. Abstract: This contribution analyzes Bob Dylan’s evangelic conversion in light of other conversions throughout his oeuvre, emphasizing the theological moment of the event of conversion as such. Two important aspects of conversion inaugurate Dylan’s born-again output: on the one hand, the isolation and purification of the figure of Christ as the all-pervading “object” of his quest; on the other, the “re- coding” of a series of figures and motifs from his earlier work, most of them derived, of course, from the proverbial American songbook. Before and after Dylan’s evan- gelical ruse, the legacy of 18th Century American Transcendentalism as well as Christ as an emblem of the rebel and/or artist constitute two relatively stable reli- gious aspects of his art. Keywords: conversions, Dylan’s born-again period, gospel, the Christ Event, Saint Paul, transcendentalism Sammendrag: Dette bidraget analyserer Bob Dylans evangeliske omvendelse i lys av andre vendinger i forfatterskapet, med hovedvekt på det religiøse momen- tet ved omvendelsen som sådan. To aspekter ved den evangeliske perioden frem- heves: isoleringen av Jesu kroppslige nærvær som absolutt mål for eksistensiell og kunstnerisk søken – og omkodingen av figurer og topoi fra den store amerikanske sangtradisjonen slik at de får en udiskutabel kristologisk valør. På begge sider av Dylans evangeliske raptus undersøkes arven etter den amerikanske transcendenta- lismen og Kristus som opprørs- og kunstnerskikkelse som to relativt stabile religiøse uttrykksformer.

  • Pentecost +10 Patterns of Love Bob Dylan's Album Blood on the Tracks, Tells the Story of Painful, Broken Relationships And
    Pentecost +10 Patterns of Love Bob Dylan’s album Blood on the Tracks, tells the story of painful, broken relationships and human loss. His son Jakob has suggested that when he hears the album, he hears the brokenness in his parent’s relationship. Bob denies that the album is personal and instead suggests it is a reflection on Anton Chekov’s short stories. Either way, the listener feels the desolation of broken relations. In his song, “Idiot Wind,” the singer belittles a former love in such an exaggerated manner that it is both humorous and tragic. “Idiot wind, blowing every time you move your mouth Blowing down the backroads headin’ south Idiot wind, blowing every time you move your teeth You’re an idiot, babe It’s a wonder that you still know how to breathe”1 These words diminish both the singer and the lost friend. I am also struck by how this same exaggerated language can be used to describe past members of a community after things have gone sour. Sometimes we feel a need demonize those who broken relations and seemed to turn against us. Violence is even possible. In my youth, I remember hearing a pastor say that at a former church, things had gotten so bad that he took to carrying a gun to church.“Idiot Wind” captures the kind of pain that would drive a person to say and even do harmful things toward people they once cared about. The song continues, “I woke up on the roadside, daydreamin’ ’bout the way things sometimes are Visions of your chestnut mare shoot through my head and are makin’ me see stars You hurt the ones that I love best and cover up the truth with lies One day you’ll be in the ditch, flies buzzin’ around your eyes Blood on your saddle” This image of a violent death gives voice to the shattered pieces of a once shared relationship.
