    Tolerance Vs Inculturation Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Sep 8, 2012
     | 2,834 views

    The Church loves sinners but abhors sin; instead of accommodating itself to the world, and tolerating sin, it should adopt a habit of inculturation as a means of spreading the Gospel.

    10 September 2012 Monday of 23rd Sunday in Course Verbum Domini One of the most abused words in the English language is “tolerance.” These days it is often wedded to the word “diversity.” We live in a diverse culture, we are told, and so we are to understand and tolerate ...read more

     | 3,828 views

    Regardless of how dirty you’ve been in the past, God’s cleansing power cleanse you and makes you like new. Now that you know this, do not let the devil and his lies lead you away from the great plan that God has for you.

And as Christians, God’s call for us in 1 Peter 1:16 is to “be holy for I am holy” but right now what’s happening is the opposite. Morality is on a decline– we have accepted “complicated” as a normal status, ...read more
