Terribly sad for many reasons:
"Pastor Terry Jones was arrested as he drove a pickup truck towing a large barbecue-style grill filled with kerosene-soaked Korans to a park, where the pastor had said he was planning to burn 2,998 of the Muslim holy books - one for every victim of the September 11 terrorist attacks."
Sad, not because this pastor was arrested, sad because a pastor would do such a thing. Scripture is clear; we are to love not hate. We are to pray for the lost. We are to share with and care for those who do not know the truth - those who stumble through life in darkness thinking they have light.
When our behavior is patterned after the world rather than The Word, we bring a reproach upon our Father and the deceived, lost souls among us remain without hope in this lost and dying world.
Whether we be Muslim, Hindu, Jehovah Witness, Mormon, pope, politician, saint or sinner ....we all need to hear the truth.
This guy is with Muslims the way Fred Phelps is with those who practice homosexual behavior. No grace, nor mercy, no compassion for the lost. Just spewing hate and antagonizing them.
ReplyDeleteWith pastors like this, it is no wonder so many want nothing to do with Christianity.!!.
