You are 100% correct my FRiend, and need to give no apologies for your faith. We are commanded to share the Gospel message of salvation through Christ alone to a lost and dying world. That includes ALL who are immersed in cult religions, be they hindu, buddhist, muslim, etc.

Of course the “interfaith” leader in the article doesn’t see that, but that’s the natural side-effect of the ecumenical movement in the first place. It seeks to blur the very clear division lines that Christ drew. Sheep or goat, wheat or tare, hot or cold, all of us will be one or the other. “I am the way the truth and the life and NO ONE comes to the Father but THROUGH ME”.

I had to laugh at this comment:

>>”Most Buddhists would not have a problem with what is written in the gospel,” said Nakai, who does not follow the particular practices of the Dalai Lama’s sect. “It’s what evangelical Christians say — the idea that you have to be saved in a certain way or you’re doomed to eternal damnation, that’s what we have a problem with.”<<

Ummmm...being saved a certain way, or else being damned to an eternity in hell IS what is written in the Gospel. That’s the whole point.

I know, and besides, it’s not like Christianity is the only religion to claim exclusivity.
Watch the DUmmies, upon reading about this, start calling all the Christians “Nazis” or something.
