Licona’s call to communicate theological belief in a more gentle, respectful and graceful way is advice that we all can heed and take to heart, regardless of religious persuasion.
“Invite to the way of your Lord with wisdom and good instruction, and argue with them in a way that is best. Indeed, your Lord is most knowing of who has strayed from His way, and He is most knowing of who is [rightly] guided.” Qur’an 16:125
These are the most important messages Jesus gave in the Gospel;
1)And one of the scribes came up and heard them disputing with one another, and seeing that he answered them well, asked him, “Which commandment is the most important of all?”
Jesus answered, “The most important is, ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one.
2) And as he was setting out on his journey, a man ran up and knelt before him and asked him, “Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?”
And Jesus said to him, “Why do you call me good? No one is good except God alone. You know the commandments…
3)And this is eternal life, that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent.
Jesus is so offensive to christians of today apparently.
