Have you heard about this foolish Pastor who has threatened to burn the Koran? I weep for this man, I weep for the people he leads, but most of all I weep for the Church. All this fool has succeeded in doing is placing another stain on the Church.
It's already hard enough to try to be an example of Christ's love in a culture that is anti church, all this man has done is given people another reason to hate the church. I can't even fathom his logic in what he think's buring the Koran would acomplish. It honestly just baffles me. Beyond that I wonder how a person can go through all the education it takes to become a Pastor and still be such an ignorant fool. Read the Bible, study Jesus...is there ANYTHING in there that would suggest to you that this is the sort of thing Christ would condone? NO. Yes Jesus did on an occasion craft a whip and clear out the temple of people who were using the house of God to sell sacrifices and make money, but honestly, I think this pastor and a lot of us in the church today are the sorts of people he would have turned that whip on.
In closing, I'm disgusted that anyone who has made the study of the life of Christ his profession could still make such a horrible decision. I pray that he hasn't damaged my ability to allow God to impact people through me. Mostly I hope that this will motivate Christians to actually study Jesus's life and try to live that way. No more book burning, no more isolating ourselves, no more modern day pharasitical garbage. Just a humble life, lived for Christ, seeking to shine his ligght into the world.
Thanks for reading.
