manifesto on Jesus

A Jesus Manifesto by Len Sweet and Frank Viola. This expresses to the core my own belief and concern. I see in the UCC how we have fallen prey to what they describe. How we have watered down Jesus. Its what E. Stanley Jones said after conversation with Gandhi about the lack of growth of Christianity in India in the mid 1940's. Basically, Gandhi said that Christians didn't act like they truly believed in Jesus Christ. They had turned Jesus into a reflection of themselves and what would fit for them rather than turning their lives over to Jesus Christ. The American church has about reached the end of its rope on adulterating Christ to serve itself. It has come back on us and the world yearns to know the truth about Jesus, not about us and our churches. A Jesus Manifesto Len Sweet Frank Viola United Church of Christ
