to anyone who has been insulted by our faith
I apologize for any insult or wrong that any fellow Christian has done. what can I say? People are jerks, even those who believe in eternal life. Ghandi is quoted for saying that he likes the idea of Christ, but not Christians cause they dont act like Christ.
The term 'Christian' means Christ-follower but we dont live up to our name. It is true that actions speak louder than words, but in a forum like this, words are all we have... and the tone behind them.
Christians are supposed to be accepting and non judgmental. Models in the Bible are given of how we should hate sin but love the sinner.
I suppose the reason that we continue to type out heated replies might be out of frustration and un-righteous anger.
Yes, we believe that we are right about sin, heaven and hell and all that good stuff... but its no reason to get in anybody's face about it.
So im here to say a sincere sorry if we've been jerks.
