Reflections Along the Jesus Way
July 6, 2024 – Quote for the Day:
“As a Christian, I believe I have no duty to force the culture in which I reside to be a Christian society.
When any humans, Christians or otherwise, get the idea that their main identity comes from the rightness of their behavior, sooner or later they will begin to believe that they have a right, a duty, perhaps even a divine calling, to force others who do not see things the way they do to do as they do. When people become convinced that their idea of right and wrong and of truth is the only way, they will form party lines and establish boundaries. They will draw lines in theological and philosophical sand, they will legislate moral principles and require religious ‘guidelines’ as they do their best to turn other people into the same judgmental, self-righteous individuals as they are.”
