STUDY THE BIBLE
"RELIGIOUS TOLERANCE"
Was Jesus one that taught re-
ligious tolerance? Did he come
Into the world to find a place for
Chrlstlsnlty among the world ol
religions, or did he come into the
world to save the world through
HghrrstianUy#
or Intolerant toward other ? reli-
gions? There is so much s<ftd to-
day about rellglqis1 tolerance that
we should want to know whap
the Bibleteacheaaixrot such yt
subject. STUDY THE BIBLK to
learn what (380 would have you
do, snd learn what Is taught In
regard to religious tolerance.
The word tolerance means, "A
feeling or habit which disposes
a person to be Indulgent toward
those whose opinions or prac-
tices differ from his own." In
tolerance means, "Refusing to
tolerate others opinions, or rell
glous beliefs. . .om? who does ikji
favor toleration.". When we un
derstand what the words mean
and consider the life and teach-
ing of Jesus Christ, it will help
us learn whether or not Jpsus
was tolerant or Intolerant
The best way to learn whetner
Jesus was tolerant or not would
be to consider an exsmple In the
life of Jesus found In the BlbU'
The gospel of John reveals In
chapter 6:66. "From that time
many of his disciples went back,
and walked <Vlth him no more."
This statement reveals the far'
that Jesus did not force anyone
to believe nor accept what he
taught and believed. He believed
that his Father created man a
bove all other things In thi*
world, and gave him the right t.j
make decisions for himself. He
believed that his fellow-man had
a right to his own opinions and'
Ideas, and the right to exercise
this power of choice whenever he
decided to do so. In this respect
we would say that Jeaus was tol
erant Not one time In the life of
Christ did he force hla teachings,
and doctrine upon anyone. We
firmly bellve and practice the
same thing In regard to religious
tolerance today.
Since Jesus was tolerant to-
ward all people and their opin-
ions, did that mean he endorsed
and accepted their beliefs, ideas,
and opinions? This Is the great-
est cause for concern today. Lei
us consider John 14:6 where
Jesus said, "I am the way, the
truth, and the life: no man
cometh to the Father, but by me'*
This verse reveals the fact that
Jesus was intolerant toward the
many ways taught by the ro-
ligtous leaders of his day: for ha
said, "I am the way" and not
ways, th Matt 15:7 9 Jesus , said.
prophesy of you, saying, Thia
Pffkplfj draweth nigh unto me
their mouth, and honoreth
ni^r with their lips; hut their
hifort is far from me. But in vain
do they worship me. teaching for
doctrine* the oommsndments of
men." These verses plainly
teach (bat Jesus would not tole-
rate the doctrine of men to be
mingled with the doctrine of
God. which he said was his doc*
trine in John 7:16. When men
added their traditions, opinions,
and Ideas to the word of God, If
became "vain" and canned "vaiij.
worship". Jesus was "intolerant
in matters of (;od's doctrine.
When Paul came into the city
of Athens he found altars erect-
ed to many Goda (Arts 17). If"
did not seek a place among their
Gods for Je^us, but he sought
THE piacc above alt others. Ho
Was Intolerant toward the re-
ligion* of the world- So It waa
with Jesus while here on the
earth. He did qot seek a place a-
mong the,Pharisees. Essenes, or
Zealots,, but rather taught that
he was the "WAY. the Truth, and
the Life", and that no man ooutd
go to theuFather hut by Him.
Therefore, Jesus was intolerant
In religion. This is true today. We
must accept the word of God as
the only source of authority and
guide In religion today. When we
do this we can have the unity
that Christ prayed for In John 17.
