What is the Burning Bush ?
Nec tamen consumebatur
Burning but not consumed
The burning bush has been a popular symbol among Reformed churches since it was first adopted by the Huguenots (French Calvinists) in 1583 during its 12th National Synod.
In 1916 the Presbyterian Church of New Zealand (PCNZ) adopted the burning bush as part of its official symbol. This current logo was adopted by the PCNZ in 1970%u2019s.
Presbyterian Youth Ministries (PYM) in 2003 printed large images on the back of hoodies and this has promoted a renewed interest in identifying ourselves as part of the Prezzy tribe.
The burning bush is described by the book of Exodus (Ex 3:1-6f and in Acts 7:30), located on Mount Horeb; according to the narrative, the bush was on fire, but was not consumed by the flames, hence the Latin title. The burning bush is where the angel of the Lord appeared and talked to Moses and appointed Him to lead the Israelites out of Egypt and into Canaan. (Ex3:10)
Let the flames remind you to be on fire for Jesus, filled with the Holy Spirit, following the light of the Father.
Let the leaves and branches remind you to remain connected in the body of Christ the church, a place to be fed and to find places to grow and serve, seeking to live a life worthy of your calling.
In short the burning bush reminds us:
~ that God calls us to follow him, as God called Moses.
~ that God%u2019s work is not a consuming fire but a Holy one.
~ of the tongues of fire at Pentecost, a sign of the Holy Spirit with us.
Let the emblem enable you to share your faith with others, as people ask you %u2013 %u201CWhat%u2019s that?%u201D
