scripture
John 6:44
Jesus said, “No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him, and I will raise him up at the last day.”
John 14:6
Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”
Matthew 7:13-14
Jesus explains, "Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.”
thought
All religions are not the same. If they were then why did Christ himself say the things above? This country speaks of religious freedom. The freedom to believe as you wish but when it comes to Christianity, and a Christian says the very things that Christ taught then we become extremists, or bigots. This country does not emphasize freedom, nor tolerance but full fledge acceptance. If we can look at someone and say that it does not matter who or what they worship or how they live then we do not follow Christ. We are just like Peter who denied he even knew Jesus. May God rise up bigots who do not fear man but fear God!
quote
Why in God’s name do you expect to be accepted everywhere? If the world could not get along with the holiest man alive (Jesus Christ) then how does it get along with you and I? Are we compromised? Do we have no spiritual stature? -taken from the “Revival Hymn”
