What a great message to Christians (all religions really)

I had not understood he welcomed unrepentant sinners to communion. It is the same with divorcees.

If the Pope welcomes homosexuals but requires that they renounce their orientation and lifestyle in order to commune with God as a Catholic, then that's a problem. I certainly hope that's not the case.

I think you will find it so, if you read the message carefully.

Then the majority needs to do a better job of denouncing the vocal minority.

no that is not needed at all.

for ANOTHER stereo should black people make it a job to go around denouncing black criminals?

no because its got nothing to do with them, judging a group by the minority is silly

1.)And as a Christian I am deeply offended at having MY holiday hijacked by materialistic greed heads. Christmas has nothing to do with Black Friday's, Jingle Bells, Let it Snow or It's a Wonderful Life.
2.) It is about the birth of the Son of God.
3.) For those who don't believe Jesus is the Son of God who was born of a virgin birth, led a perfect sin-free life, was crucified sinless, rose from the dead and will return to judge the Quick AND the Dead, then please screw off and find something else to feed your pagan rituals, heavy drinking and obsessive food consumption.
4.)There's a reason the "holiday season" generates three times as many suicides as any the period, and it isn't God. It is what a corrupt and self involved generation have turned the Saviour's birth into.
5.)If you don't walk with Jesus on a daily basis, get then out of OUR holiday.

1.) well good thing its not hijacked then
2.) yes thats what christian Christmas is about
3.) another perfect example of what the OP was talking about . . thank you
4.) see #3
5.) see #1 and #3

As a chrisitian myself my religion is FOR ME, my relationship with my religion and with GOD is MINE.
Its not yours, its not to be forced on you nor are you to force me how to have it.
What you do with your religion or lack of one is YOUR business, not mine and vice-versa.
Im not to make the laws reflect only my beliefs nor are you to make laws to stop my relationship with my god. etc etc



To each thier own but i think this is a great message


LOVE

Here's where this gets rediculous ...

"I only wanted to Change you."

Guess what, if the gospel doesn't change you, you've got the wrong Gospel, the scriptures tell us to be transformed, to make ourselves anew ... We are SUPPOSED to change, everyone is.

Yes Jesus loved everyone .... but you know what you do if you love someone? You try and bring them to truth, you try and help them to become better ... Jesus loved everyone which is why he commanded them to change, why he said the Kingdom of heaven belongs to the Meek.

Jesus loved the pharasees and the saducees that oppressed the People, but he CONDEMNED them and said that they MUST repent and change.

This sort of nonsense is the worst of liberal "christianity" .... it isn't christianity, it has no theology, it has no ethics, it's just, frankly, ego stroking, "you're Perfect the way you are."

If you really think this, if you REALLY think that Christianity doesn't demand change ... then be consistant, it doesn't demand change from the rapist, the racist, the bigot, the exploiter the oppressor and so on ... if you're christianity has NO ethical Foundation, if Jesus' actual Words and actions and if scripture means nothing .... then Christianity means nothing, it's empty, it's just something that feels good to appeal to, but it's meaningless.

Frankly I'd prefer if the so-called "liberal" (and I mean liberal theologically, not politically), Christians, would just come out and be honest ... they arn't really Christians, they don't really believe Christ is lord and king and God is supreme and all knees must bow before him and he has the right to determine right and wrong ... they are selfians, they worship themselves, and their own ideas.

well your assumption couldnt be more wrong as usual, just another perfect example of what the OP was talking about, thank you for posting it and cementing its message that mush more.

A Christian is one that follows Christ ... Christ sit to pick up Your cross and follow him, Christ did not say "you are Perfect the way you are" ...

So basically ... no dialogue .... as much as liberal christianity claims to want "dialogue" they really don't, they want a monologue and then a pat on the back.

Nope I origionally made an actual point ... you didn't respond to it you just said "another good example" .... if you don't want to actually respond to the Points, but instead just wag Your finger ... then fair enough.

Gods word has passed judgement already--- LOVE--would motivate ones heart to get ones fellow brothers and sisters out of the darkness of this world, to expose the table of demons( 1Cor 10:21) to them, and to show them the 1 correct path--John 4:22-24---- When 99% of all religions are false--- this is urgent work indeed.
Jesus true followers know who is who--He taught to be no part of this world--( no friend making of world followers)God as well taught-- friendship with the world is enmity with God--means you are his enemy.
The darkness throws fake light out daily that looks very good to the blind( 2Cor 11:12-15)

Its reality of this world unfortunately---All who have read and understand--every utterance from God---can clearly see for the majority of mankinds history--99% mislead--99% false religions. They are lost in this illusion-2Cor 4:4
