The Third Jesus by Deepak Chopra ~ Great Book!!!!!! " A religion of love has moved alarmingly in the direction of hatred, although outright hatred may not be preached from the pulpit. What is preached is self-righteous intolerance."
It was a very interesting book. Not sure I could ever live up to the ultimate goal of LOVE, but I am working on being more tolerant. If I ever get there I'll start working on the love part.
Slef-righteousness is a huge problem in the church. Christians--myself included--far too often try to look holy rather than rest in grace.
ReplyDeleteGranted, I wouldn't say that my ultimate aim is tolerance. No, the ultimate goal would be much higher than that: Love.
Sounds very interesting [smile].
