QURAN-BURNING PASTOR FAVORS FIRST AMENDMENT OVER GREATEST COMMANDMENT


By Apprising Ministries correspondent Jim Luppachino of Watcher’s Lamp:

Pastor Terry Jones of Gainesville, Florida is yet another “Christian” pastor who has fallen into the trap of turning his back on the pastor’s Biblical role and turned his pulpit into a political stage. This time, lives may be in the balance.

He and his “church” plan a public burning of the Koran on September 11, 2010.

He has turned his back on the essential Christian doctrines of loving thy neighbor as taught by Christ.

Matthew 22:34-40 (English Standard Version)

The Great Commandment

34 But when the Pharisees heard that he had silenced the Sadducees, they gathered together. 35 And one of them, a lawyer, asked him a question to test him. 36 “Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?” 37 And he said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. 38 This is the great and first commandment. 39And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. 40 On these two commandments depend all the Law and the Prophets.”

Pastor Terry Jones, apparently blinded by self righteousness, seems to have forgotten that:

Some may view Pastor Jones as a patriot. Using the Biblical standard, he is no pastor. His message and actions are unbiblical. Using the First Ammendment as protection for his unbiblical actions is defrauding the The Scriptures. A wolf in sheeps’ clothing.

Congratulations Pastor Jones, the real fire you are starting is the fire the will burn Christians at the stake once again.
