"If
you're gonna give Jesus a bad name... please, at least do it for the
right reasons! And please offend the right people! The people who should
be offended by Jesus are not "sinners". While sinners flocked to Jesus,
it was the Pharisee-types, the duty-driven, finger-pointing,
behavior-based people who couldn't stand Him.
The
self-righteous performance-based religious people are the ones who
should rightly have a problem with the unconditional-lover of the world.
If we're gonna turn anyone off, let's do it the way it should be... by
loving and accepting others and showing them how God loves and accepts
them, thereby offending the ones who truly should be offended by the
gospel."
- Joel Brueseke
