But the grace of God comes only through faith in, for and by Jesus Christ.
"Whatsoever is not of faith is sin." -- Romans 14:23
In preaching that all religions are valid, and denying a belief in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, Mother Teresa did not "show herself to be approved."
"And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him" -- Colossians 3:17
I understand the loyalty Catholics have to her and, as I said earlier, I hope and pray she did not die in despair and unbelief. Jesus said:
Matthew 10:32-33
Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven.
But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven.
I cannot imagine going through the adversities she did without her faith in Christ to sustain her, but she DID say those things spoken of her denial of him and she said them before others. I would love to know she saw the light in the end. I will not criticize her or disparage her efforts. I pray that the people who carry on her mission to this day do not fall into such an abyss.
You continue to defame a dead woman, who gave her life to Christ, on a mission for decades to the poorest of the poor. As you sow, so shall you reap (Christ said that).
Disgusting.
