1 | Don't Be So Open Minded | John 14:6 | Wild Olive Shoot | 204268 | ||
As of late there has been a bit of discussion concerning the consideration of other’s views even if they aren’t rooted in truth. That we should tolerate those views and maybe even go as far as learning them and understanding them to see them in the proper perspective. I thought the following article presented a solid look at how this should be handled. I wanted to share. Below is an excerpt, the entire article can be found at the web address below. “Our enemy’s supreme deception is in his attempt to convince us that he doesn’t exist. Toward that end, he has launched his assault against us with every weapon in his carefully fashioned arsenal. Perhaps his greatest success is in persuading us that being open-minded is a good thing. For it is precisely when we accept the notion that open-mindedness is a Christian virtue that we fall into the same devilish trap by which our first parents were ensnared. Once our minds are open to open-mindedness, all ideas, no matter how absurd, can come and go as they please — with our sanction. We thus become headless and brainless philosophers who just want to get along. One such philosopher and self-proclaimed theologian has written: “So I believe we have radically to rethink our understanding of the place of Christianity in the global religious picture. And we have to face the fact that it is one path amongst others, and then reform our belief-system to be compatible with this. This is the big new challenge that theologians and church leaders have yet to face. We have to become consciously what are called religious pluralists.” This is the mantra of religious pluralists: Liberate your mind, lose your faith, and feel the love.” - Burk Parsons http://www.ligonier.org/tabletalk/2008/6/1065_Dont_Be_So_Open-minded Stand in His Grace, WOS |

Well I've got a mind like a steel trap, but praise God, thankfully in that area it's, rusted closed! :-) Thanks for the link, Brother, WOS. God bless John |
