A local “church” is promoting billboards and other public awareness with the phrase “Who Stole Jesus?” The pastor was on the news last night saying he wanted to dispel the notion that Christians are hateful and judgmental. He wanted to promote that his church was all about being “inclusive” and I knew it before he said it: “Inclusive of gay people.” Yep; a fag church. I believe it’s the same church that had an ad campaign for “Would Jesus Discriminate?”
I wonder if the pew bibles have some passages blacked out.
Nobody was/is more discriminating than Jesus. If you don’t believe that salvation came through Him, you’d never know the Father, which is to say you aren’t going to Heaven.
He didn’t care what you looked like, or what your gender was, or even your race, but He was insistent upon that one requirement.
Amazing how many think Jesus and Santa are sort of interchangeable somehow.
Hell yes, Paster, and He'd kick your @ss, too.
Politically correct preachers have a lot of nerve lying about the wisdom and character of Jesus like this. They are basically preaching against redemption.
Discrimination means knowing right from wrong; good from evil human expression. Jesus did not hate sinners but He was very clear about his rejection of sin and calling on people to repent and follow Him - His moral code.
The Liars who have inflitrated the church use the story about the prostitute who was fixing to get stoned when Jesus stepped in to redeem her. He awaknened the mob to His power of redemption in that incident which contained two parts: First, by telling the mob “He who is without sin, cast the first stone”, He let us know that the old ways of man playing the judge of unforgiveness in God’s name, was over. Liars leave the story there. But there was more: He turned to the woman and told her “Go and sin no more.” So there are two parts of redemption: Accepting Jesus’ power to wash away our sins but also to repent - turn away from sin and follow Jesus. You really have to hate someone to tell them evil is good so that they do not repent and ask for Christ’s redemmption.
The old preachers were right when the boiled it down to: Love the sinner; hate the sin. Gay activists decided to dictate that everyone must love the sin (and even engage in it) if they love the sinner.
