Brother Emile, with all due respect may I suggest that you will be a more effective ambassador for Christ by demonstrating His Love to all people, including those that are seeking the Truth. When you see people through His eyes, compassion is the result. See Paul on Mars Hill for a model.

I've heard it said that "people don't care how much you know until they know how much you care." This is the beauty of Jesus's ministry, He met people "where they are." He won "seekers" to Him by meeting their needs. He built relationships. Of course he berated the self righteous religious "leaders" of His time with stern words...different methods for different needs. "Seekers" need to know how much Jesus loves them, this is our mission as followers, to reflect His love through the power of the Holy Spirit.

I fear that Steve Meyers is right about the spiritual warfare on this thread. The enemy is the winner when the Gospel message is lost in this contentious "dialogue" about minor points.

Please accept this in the manner in which it is intended, I don't hope to fan the flames.

In Christ, Steve
