John 14:6-7 "Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you really knew me, you would know my Father as well."
I was glancing through the news the other day and I saw an article about the church that was planing to burn the Quran, apparently they had a change of heart. Several other religious leaders decided to read from each other's holy books during the past Sunday's services... The organizer made this statement,
"My whole ministry, my whole faith is designed around the sense that we have much to learn from each other that we are a common family and that our division is not among religions but it is among fanatics and extremists on both sides that we have to overcome,” Reimer said
I pasted the article below. I guess I have an issue with Mr. Reimer's statement and thought, I do not see all religions as part of the same family. Jesus said quite simply that no one comes to the Father except through him. It seems that we seem to believe that all paths lead to the same god... that is scary to think about. But besides my issues with Mr. Reimer's statements, look at the comments posted by some of the people... look at where people's hearts are. That is truly the sad part of this story..
