Isms are nothing but name, don't be fool by it

"I'm not into isms and asms. There isn't a Catholic moon and a Baptist sun. I know the universal God is universal....I feel that the same God-force that is the mother and father of the pope is also the mother and father of the loneliest wino on the planet." - Dick Gregory

  1. Wonderful quote, and from a surprising source too. Interesting.

    A universal God - in the form of existence itself. Hmmm. Whatever happened to the God who is of course 'on my side' but wreaking horrible wrath upon my enemy (hopefully)? Is that God still alive? I think it is, unfortunately, still alive and kicking in the hearts and minds of way too many.

  3. Universal God for the entire world? Absolutely! But God only offers one path for righteousness and forgiveness. None of our works are enough to make us Saints. We've all turned away...it's only by an immense amount of grace that I don't understand that we are even allowed the approach the throne of the God who made us. Jesus makes this all very clear.
