There have been a few pleasant examples of tolerance in this thread, to those of you I thank you.
To those of you who would try and define the beliefs of others... Don't.
There have been a few who have claimed that those of the faith that I lay claim to are not Christians. I can do nothing to reason with you, for your
minds are made up, all I can say is, I believe in Christ. It is my right, it is my creed, and it is my focus of life. To tell me otherwise is not your
place. That is between me and the Lord, and I will stand before him in the last days and face my own account. You are not the judge appointed by the
Holy One.
Worry not to prove wrongness in each other, instead work to build up that which is good. Good and Evil, light and dark, they are opposing and
incapable of existing in the same place at the same time. If you love one another unconditionally, as instructed by Christ, then you build up the
light in each other. If there is only one ultimate truth, to which we all strive, then inevitably, those who seek truth, must find themselves drawn
towards the same point in the end. Seek to do good. Work with those who would work with you, and love those who still hate you. If we do these things
then we will find all the follies of men fall away from our various churches and rejoice in joining together in one united body. So cease to find
fault. Work to build up the kingdom. The light will expel it's own darkness. God does not need us to punish the wicked, he will do it his own way and
his own time. And it will be far less heavy handed then us, with far more chances for repentance then we would offer.
