Re: We are to love and honour neighbour as much as self, Feedback, Oct. 16
Joy because I am “the sandwich bag Christian” he is referring to and more joy because my “sandwich bag” got into his hands. Now let me point out that Rev. Canon Trev. Whiting called my sandwich bag full of scriptures “mind pablum.”
Well I will share with you four items that were in the “sandwich bag” and you can decide for yourself if it contained “mind pablum.”
Item 1) A pocket size gospel of John (one of the 66 books of the Holy Bible)
Item 2) Two Christian gospel tracts that contain Gods 10 Commandments and the gospel message, which is this: Mark 1:15..”repent ye (turn from sin and toward God) and believe the gospel”.
~The gospel message is this: 1 Corinthians 15:3-4 “For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures; and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures.”
Item #3) A letter explaining why Jesus is the only way to God: John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life:no man cometh unto the Father, but to Me.”
So as a God fearing Christian it troubles me deeply that Rev. Canon Trev. Whiting would call any of God’s Holy Scriptures, His gospel message, and His 10 Commandments “mind pablum”. But what troubles me most is the fact that Rev. Canon Trev. Whiting claims to be a Christian and to “love his neighbour as himself.” Well let me ask you a question. If you love your neighbour as yourself would you lie to them?
If Jesus claimed to be the ONLY way to the Father (God) as it says in John 14:6, then would it not be a lie to tell people that there are many paths to God?
Here is a quote from Rev.Canon Trev. Whiting “I grow weary of the narrow- minded that dare to suggest there is only one path to God.”
So I ask you one question: Who is the liar and who truly loves his neighbour?
1) Quote from Jesus Christ..John 14:6 “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me.”
OR
2) Quote from Rev. Canon Trev. Whiting: ”I grow wary of the narrow-minded that dare to suggest there is one path to God.”
Sadly, I do not think I am wrong to conclude that Rev. Canon Trev. Whiting is suggesting that Jesus Christ and His followers are narrow-minded liars.
If you are a true follower of Jesus Christ this should be very troubling to you as well.
Blessings in Christ Jesus.
