JosephM Posted May 29, 2009 Posted May 29, 2009 Can we build community here where Love reigns over significantly different beliefs? If so, how do we do that? If not, Why can't we do that? Or what changes do you see necessary? Open for discussion........ Love Joseph

Or what changes do you see necessary? Open for discussion........ Love Joseph Yes Joseph, we can. The church that Fred Plumer served for 20 years is a great example. I know, it is my church. Step one is to create a safe place. Step two, open your doors to all. Step three, understand compassion for the least amongst us. Step four, act on these principles and don't just talk about them. Micah 6:8 "He has told you, O mortal, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?"
JosephM Posted May 29, 2009 Author Posted May 29, 2009 Myron, Thanks for the brief and precise post. Perhaps others have other views. Joseph
AllInTheNameOfProgress Posted May 30, 2009 Posted May 30, 2009 That is what we strive for at my church. We have very different theological ideas, but out goals of loving God and loving our neighbors unite us. There's no need to separate ourselves from others who have the same quest but are travelling a different path.
