Re: Aikido and being Christian

[quote=Kevin Leavitt]Good post Jon!


Please, I am not accusing ANYONE here of this level of devaluation of mankind and humanity...but it is something that you must be very careful with in fundamentalism. It seems to me to be too easy to justify acts of violence and war...hurricanes, typhoons as "acts of God"...that they deserve it because they are "heathens" and have not accepted Jesus and "god is angry at them".

I'm sorry ,but being a christian ,living in Christ is fundamentalism,
in its true sense and meaning.You can not bend and twist
the word of God to your own liking.
And christianity is not about tolerance - that is a buddhist concept.
Christianity is about forgiveness,tolerance - no !

God is not angry anymore , He put his anger along with sin on
Jesus Christ at the moment he died on the cross,the suffering Jesus must have felt when he died is unbearable to think of,
still there immense joy at the other end , thank God !
This does not mean that what God has planned and promised in the past is over and history - far from it,
but the angry God that was before Christ died,has let his true nature
become revealed in Christ the resurrcted.
