Legalism

The more I think abt it, and the more I talk abt it, it seems that the
attitude towards this particular issue has been off...

Went for CM today, topic was on Understanding Buddhism, what it stands
for, and viewing it in the light of Christianity. Have come to know a
lot more abt what Buddhism is actually abt (the speaker was a devout
Buddhist, one who knew why he was and what is a Buddhist, etc), and
also why it's arguments are, insufficient? Half truths here, not total
wrong stuff, but not the entire truths either.

Thing that hit, was also the fact that, yeah, how we should treat
them, the same toward others, with grace, that they may know the grace
of God. Thinking abt what I'm facing now, it's like, true, there're
things that I don't agree, but that doesn't mean that shld go abt
focusing only on that point, and on the fact that it doesn't draw
everything from the Word only, doesn't necessarily mean that it's not
evangelism, cos pple can hear the Word too...only that the person
saying it, it's best to be true to what the passage actually means/has
to say..

Worse, just clam up when there could be opportunities to tell the
truths, and just keep thinking on how it's not true to the Word and
such....gosh...how different is that from a Pharisee??!

Can only hope and pray that will be able to react to pple in a more
edifying way...and to my buddhist friends too, now knowing a little
more abt their beliefs...

Gg back with A + G + P after the corporate meeting, A drove us back,
but felt bad in sort of making him send us back cos of the assumption
that he drives, and that he lives near us, when he had to go back
fast, cos he had things to do...dun really think shld force him like
that in a way...but was a little irritated with the way he really
carelessly drove, guess he wanted to reach home fast, but it certainly
wasn't safe for anyone at times..

Another long day, another long train of thoughts, yet I'd rather not
be back to the "old" life, cos now we have hope, not like old times...
