One night at farmer's market....!

Hi Ansar:

It was a good story, and one of the things that it teaches us is that we should never be too confident in our present state of understanding. As we continue to understand more, we may release what we previously thought that we could never release and hold onto another position. Why? Because we have a more complete understanding.

This issue of the Trinity has been a cause of distrust between us for over 1,300 years. It is not obligatory for Christians to believe in the Trinity. We believe that there is only one God, the God of Abraham, and that a personal relationship with Him is possible. We also believe that Jesus is the Messiah. The rest is tradition. Therefore as we communicate, we can learn more about each other if we do not exceed these limits.

Regards,
Grenville

Grenville, you and a few others do show it is possible for Christians and Muslims to discuss in Peace. Thank You for your willingness to understand even when you do not agree. Communication has a chance in this world if we can distribute that attitude.
