Free Resource | Does the Bible Promote Tolerance or Intolerance?
One group says the Bible is a book about love, mercy, and kindness. They think of the story of the Good Samaritan and of Jesus telling us to turn the other cheek. So how could anyone think the Bible prevents a tolerant society? But for another group, the Bible is far from tolerant. There’s the conquest of Canaan. There’s Elijah killing Baal’s prophets by his own hand. And in the New Testament, Jesus talks often about hell. That’s not tolerant. What then can we say in answer to this question?

We don't want to get wrapped up in forms and structure without the power of God at work in them. It is the power of Christ that we want you to experience today.

Here Paul describes a form of godliness without the power of Christ. We need structure, but if that's all there is, we're missing the main point, which is Christ and his power. We want you to have him and that power at work in your life.

In the true teaching of holiness, when we become more holy, we do not become less human or less who we were meant to be, we become more who God designed us to be. There's a beauty and a wholeness to true holiness.

Paul says this form of religion is like being a slave–like being held back in immaturity and not going on to mature spirituality. In the gospel we move from this slavery relationship to one of adoption with full rights as sons and daughters in Christ.

Living in the AD reality of Christ's death and resurrection means to live as sons of the heavenly Father with the desire to please him in every way and to have fellowship that is unbroken by the barriers that we construct between each other in our fallen state.

Living BC is living under the law which is like being prisoners with the guardian of the law put in charge of us. Maybe you feel you are in prison with the law around you, but there is release that comes from the gospel.

You are made for more than a mild life of unexceptional indifference. You are made for God, who is fulfilling in every possible way.

Part of our condition is not only that we are not good, but that we think we are. We have a tendency to think that there's nothing really wrong with us.
