Any religion, like that of Mahomet, who made converts with the sword, is not from above but from beneath. Any form of Christianity which burns men at the stake, in order to promote its own success, carries about it the stamp of an apostasy. That is the truest and best religion which does most to spread real, true peace (Expository Thoughts on the Gospels [Vol.4], pp.387-388). ~ J.C. Ryle

Good post, and good points.

The corollary is: Just because Luther made anti-Semitic comments does not make all Christian anti-Semites, it means Luther was a fallible human. Especially since our Lord and Savior was born Jewish, and his early followers were Jewish as well.

Almost, but not quite. True justice, not true peace. There will never be true peace until Christ's established Kingdom.

And that Kingdom, I reckon, will come from True Justice (the rod of iron).

“That is the truest and best religion which does most to spread real, true peace”.

The Zen Buddhists would claim that as their own, or maybe the Dalai Lama.
