When you look at Jesus and the Gospels, I think it's so interesting to me that people read the Gospels to be uplifted by the reading of it.
It seems that misses the point that Jesus is talking about the way the world is.
He's teaching about the nature of reality.
He was a Torah-observant Jew.
He wasn't a Hindu.
He wasn't a Buddhist.
He was a Jew.
And he spoke in the context of that.
So just to simply read the Gospels as if we're going to read some nice things that people said to make me feel better is missing Jesus' point when he's trying to describe the nature of reality.
I don't think that's how the Gospels should be read.
One second.
So the presumption that you made is a presumption.
We have to keep that in mind.
I mean the people that I have talked to who were former Muslims and are now Christians, very devout Muslims, they did not have the experience of satisfaction, fullness and connection with God.
with in islam that they do in christianity okay so we want to be careful that we know there are people who do the opposite yeah there's people that would have gone the other way and they'll be in the comment section right now saying well i went from christianity to islam okay well sure i'm just telling you what i what i know of those people okay and uh it's i think it's a mistake to say well everybody has their own religion they have their own experience with their religion because i don't think that's the case i'm not saying there aren't satisfied muslims that's
What I'm saying is the – there is an evidential element to the changed life, OK?
And it may not be decisive.
There may be other things that are involved, OK?
I do think that for many Christians – I think you've made this point in the past too.
It's the experience with God that makes the difference.
