Ditto, baby, Ditto. And you found someone--one of many--with a different point of view about the bible. May your eyes be opened as much as you wish mine to be. Jesus broke the rules and did not adhere to strict word-for-word doctrine. He preached love and against hypocrisy all his life.

Great article!
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek - Romans 1:16.
Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth - John 17:17.

Is your response meant to make us feel bad for not watering down the gospel so it is palatable to you? Your response is very sad but that is reality. Many are not willing to go the narrow way Jesus described. They want to go to heaven on their terms instead of God's. Obviously you are searching or you wouldn't be on this website. May God open your eyes to the truth.

NoWire,
"Open minded" and "positive" are not traits found in Scripture's description of a believer. Jesus himself said "narrow" is the way and few there be that find it. That narrowness flies in the face of worldly thinking which values "openness" and "inclusiveness". Thank you Greg, for your faithful defense of the Gospel. Jesus is a stumbling block for non-believers and false converts who believe they are in while rejecting the whole counsel of God in Scripture. If we aren't prepared to take up our crosses and follow Christ on the narrow way, we are not his followers in the first place.
