Addressing Objections to the Gospel

Addressing Objections to the GospelExcerpt: Chap. 22, Going Through SamariaSon of Man: Urantia, 2nd ed.Philip told Jesus that the Greeks and Romans were making fun of their message. They said it was only fit for slaves and weaklings, that the heathens had a better religion because it built strong and aggressive men, and that your gospel would make all men feeble pacifists that would be wiped off of the face of the earth. Even though they agree that your teaching is the ideal way to live, they do not take us seriously. They say people cannot live like you want them to, and that your gospel is not for this world. How do we answer these objections, they asked. Jesus replied, I have come to earth to do the will of my Father and to reveal his loving character to all humanity. That, my apostles, is my mission, and I will do this even if my teachings are misunderstood by the Jews and Gentiles today or in the future. Do not overlook the fact that even divine love has its restraints and requires discipline.Son of Man: Urantia, is a restatement of the life and teachings of Jesus of Nazareth as presented in the Urantia revelation and in accordance with its urging to do so for today’s generation.Please buy a PDF and subscribe to the Son of Man: Urantia Project.Your support is urgently needed.Godspeed, BobSon of Man: Urantia ProjectBookhttps://www.lulu.com/search?page=1&sortBy=RELEVANCE&q=son+of+man%3A+urantia&pageSize=10&adult_audience_rating=00PDFhttps://son-of-man-urantia.sellfy.storeFull chapter here.https://robertakezer.substack.com/p/chap-22-going-through-samaria This is a public episode.
