Ethos said:"I never heard of Jesus ever saying "Everyone is entitled to their own religious beliefs, so I won't bother you with mine."
It basically means that, you know how some people saying stuff like
"Well, I should be able to decided my own religion."
And,
"There might be more than one God you know. God might share heaven with buhhda. I believe all the Followers of your God will go to Your Gods side of heaven, while my god has the other half."
Ect,
It just means what it says.
Alos, it means that just because you believe something differnt from me, doesn't me I'll leave you alone if we get into a debate o\r start talking religion.
But I'm not here to start a religion debate.
KeyLimePie said:I thought your quote implied that you have zero tolerance for other religions - most of which, frankly, are much older and more established than Christianity. *shrug* I guess I read it wrong.
Well....God has no tolerance for other religions....He's pretty clear in His book on that for anyone who bothers to read it...however He does give each of us the right to choose what we will believe...it's just that it's His way, or the highway....sorry......after all.....He's GOD...and we aren't (shrug)
Sorry, I just couldn't resist this one folks......and I know religion is a hefty subject and I do believe that God forces no one to believe or follow Him....but there is only ONE cure for what ails us all...sin...and that is in the payment God Himself made at great cost...through Jesus Christ His Son. You either believe in Him or you don't....it's up to you. But He is the ONLY way to the Father...He said so Himself I don't think I have EVER heard anyone accuse Jesus of being a lunatic...not even those who don't believe in Him as Lord and Savior.
