It is perfectly fine to say Christ is the only way to God.

I believe something ... therefore, I am "intolerant".

Jesus said it first; I AM THE WAY, THE LIFE AND THE TRUTH.
HE WHO BELIEVES IN ME SHALL NOT PERISH BUT SHALL HAVE ETERNAL LIFE.

Works for me.

I would ask the Canadian Government to also state that Islam is NOT the only way to the True God, and see what hits the fan, or blows up the radio station or government office. You see, one teaches love, and the other....doesn’t.
Just sayin...

Well, the first people to say it were thrown to lions, so I guess a little Canadian disapproval shouldn’t bother us much.

Jesus said it and that’s good enough for me.

“No one comes to the Father but by me.”

What the political Left fails to understand is that God doesn’t care about your widdle feewings if they stand opposed to His truth.

It’s like I tell the gays when I quote scripture. Your problem isn’t with me. I’m just reporting what my God says. Your problem is with Him. Are you going to tell Him that He’s wrong?

The problem is that the left has redefined “tolerance” to mean “celebratory acceptance of radical fascist affronts to conscience.” So there’s a problem right there.

For those that believe, it does not matter. For others that require repeatable scientific evidence it still does not matter.

Are we lopping off heads to win favor with God?

It is perfectly fine to say Christ is the only way to God.

Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you really know me, you will know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him.” -- John 14:6-7, NIV

It is perfectly ‘tolerant’, as long as you don’t have as a goal suppressing other people’s beliefs. It is perfectly fine for Muslims to think that Islam is superior to other religions, but it is not acceptable for them to impose (or even think about imposing) their belief on others in any way.

Only if you want to consider Jesus to be intolerant for claiming that no man comes to the Father but through Him.

Tolerance and acceptance are very different I am tolerant of diverse religious beliefs. I accept only one faith as true. I share my faith with any who are interested in discussing faith.

Speaking of intolerance, Jesus will not allowing those who do not put their faith into Him to enter his Father’s kingdom.

The Bible never charges Christians with being tolerant. It does charge Christians with spreading the gospel.
