What on earth am I doing??!! I have fallen for a trap of thinking I could convince a Brit that a liberal Christian is a bad thing. What was I thinking?? Christendom as a whole has thrown off the adherence to the original Word of God as it has thrown off the Holiness teachings of Wesley and others. Abandoned for a social Gospel. I'm sorry to have wasted your time.

I don't know what my being a Brit has to do with anything. And yes, I'm used to the out of context quotes about Tony. If they concern you I'd recommend you emailing him for his views. Yes, I agree with what Wesley said. That's why I became a Methodis. But I'm tired of hearing that Chrisitan duty to the poor doesn't extend to our ability to influence our rulers, especially on issues of trade justice, etc. We can lobby to display the 10 commandments in a court house but not to help the poor!

Tiny: I'm sorry that you've never had the chance to speak with Tony in person. I've had the pleasure of knowing him for years and can say with great confidence that despite your theological differences, he would treat you with respect and kindness. He lives his faith and is very humble. That more Christians would follow his example..

Yes, many socialists are fine people. Bill Clinton and BHO (B Husein Obama) claim to be Christians too. They also seem like very humble people who light up the room w/their humility and friendly nature. They also treat others (upon meeting them face to face) with respect and kindness. He tried to preach politics to my church's youth...just kids...at our international youth convention as far back as 84. Regardless, I think he's a nice guy although a VERY liberal Christian (oxymoron).

"Beyond these models of reconciliation a theology of mysticism provides some hope for common ground between Christianity and Islam. Both religions have within their histories examples of ecstatic union with God ... I do not know what to make of the Muslim mystics, especially those who have come to be known as the Sufis. What do they experience in their mystical experiences? Could they have encountered the same God we do in our Christian mysticism?"

He relies on the wisdom of a man who doesn't even believe in the Lordship of Jesus there. Here's another one: ""I am saying that there is no salvation apart from Jesus; that's my evangelical mindset. I am not convinced that Jesus only lives in Christians"

(National Liberty Journal, 8/99)
"Jesus is the only Savior, but not everybody who is being saved by Him is aware that He is the one who is doing the saving"
