W e focus for th e m om ent upon the

T he God-of-

dogm as. R ather th e God known to the

only in m eeting; th at is, in th e m idst of
life ex p erien ces.
T his is precisely - and sign ifican tly -
the w ay th e God of the patriarchs and
prophets and of th e a p o stles (in th e Old
and N ew T esta m en ts) w as known. Jacob
w restled w ith God; Ezekiel found God's
sp irit in a w heel; Isaiah m et God at an
alter; Mary and J osep h m e t God in a
stable; and Paul m et God on the
D am ascu s Road. T he Black sp irituals
reflected th e fact th at th e God of their
ex p erien ce w as not one w ho w as afar off
and w ho b lessed "th in gs as th ey are" - or
which at least seem ed for th e tim e to be.
