Those Who Have The Disease Called Jesus

I Am Deeply Distressed By What I Only Can Call In Our Christian Culture The Idolatry Of The Scriptures. For Many Christians, The Bible Is Not A Pointer To God But God Himself... God Cannot Be Confined Within The Covers Of A Leather-bound Book. I Develop A Nasty Rash Around People Who Speak As If Mere Scrutiny Of Its Pages Will Reveal Precisely How God Thinks And Precisely What God Wants.

The Greatest Single Cause Of Atheism In The World Today Is Christians, Who Acknowledge Jesus With Their Lips And Walk Out The Door, And Deny Him By Their Lifestyle. That Is What An Unbelieving World Simply Finds Unbelievable.

Jesus Says. "acknowledge And Accept Who I Want To Be For You: A Savior Of Boundless Compassion, Infinite Patience, Unbearable Forgiveness, And Love That Keeps No Score Of Wrongs. Quit Projecting Onto Me Your Own Feelings About Yourself. At This Moment Your Life Is A Bruised Reed And I Will Not Crush It, A Smoldering Wick And I Will Not Quench It. You Are In A Safe Place."

Suffering, Failure, Loneliness, Sorrow, Discouragement, And Death Will Be Part Of Your Journey, But The Kingdom Of God Will Conquer All These Horrors. No Evil Can Resist Grace Forever.

Craving Clarity, We Attempt To Eliminate The Risk Of Trusting God.
