"We need to forsake the Christendom model," Camp said. "The most basic Christian commitment … is that we say we believe in the Lordship of Jesus. But, if we claim that, how can a Muslim or Jew trust us, if we say Jesus is the Lord of all Lords?"

This is a theologian?

He must have been gone from school the day they learned about the resurrection.

You can find a "theologian" to say any dumb*ss thing. And of course, the MSM pretty much only publishes the ones who say dumb*ss things.

Hmmm...renounce Jesus as the Lord of all Lords?

You go right ahead and do, that, Mr. Camp. See where it gets you.

The devil and his minions will always continue to skim the the naive pit with his lies and deceit.

But if people actually fall for this garbage, they are already at the bottom.

When it comes to our faith and our belief in Jesus, we are not to go to lengths to be politically correct and try to get along by forsaking Jesus, as this theologian wants to do, to earn the trust of Muslim and Jews.

According to Matthew 10:34,35 Jesus said: "Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law."

Oops, there it goes this theologian's "can we all get along" mindset.

What Jesus meant by this is to love Him above anyone or anything, and to love Him more than one loves their mother, father, or sibling. And the sword is a metaphorical sword, not that one Muslims use in jihads to cut people's heads off or wage war. Jesus knew that believing in him would not always bring acceptance and unity within our families, and when that time arrives those of us who believe in Him would accept the consequences no matter what the cost, and so the metaphorical sword would sometimes sever our family ties.

"This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief." -- Timothy 1:15.

He didn't come to appease Muslims, Liberals, communists, or any other malcontent who wants us to reject Him.
