Emile,

You offered an apology for the comments about my grandfather that you made on another thread. I accepted that apology. I am stating this here as background for the rest of this thread so that I can say the following.

I apology for using hurtful language in describing your beliefs. My language was intemperate and unkind. I will attempt to refrain from using such language in the future.

I do not apologize for my beliefs and opinions. I am a christian and love Christ. I was taught to love my neighbour. I have met many Jews in my life and many of the people who have had the most profound impact on my life have been Jewish. Several of them are very religious and have studied the Babylonian Talmud. They have never expressed any hatred towards Christ, Christianity or me as a Christian. If anything they have been gentle men filled with love.

I believe you truly love Christ and believe you are being honest in your views. As a fellow in Christ I must tell you that you come across strident and intolerant. This will not bring people to Christ but will drive people away. Is this what Christ wants?

I often pray for help in controlling by temper and sharp tongue. I regret any hurt I have caused any one. I will stay off this thread and not speak of you. But I will add to my prayers that you see a truer path to demonstrating Christ's love.

Henry
