"But when He saw the multitudes, He was moved with compassion for them, because they were weary and scattered, like sheep having no shepherd".
Matthew 9:36 NKJV
Even today Jesus has the same compassion, He who is the same yesterday, today and forever and who is the Living One. I know that Jesus will help us, and he will do it for each of you and for his Church spread throughout the world.
#Jesus
In the New Covenant Jesus has purchased, we are introduced to the true reality of all things.
Through the Spirit of Christ we can draw from this reality so that we may know, in all of the areas that touch our lives—
in our work, ministry, family, society, culture, government, institutions, art, play, research, religion—
the goodness and provision of an all-sufficing, want-erasing, fear-eradicating, peace-loving Shepherd.
Such a precious gift is not for sale, nor is it a chip with which to bargain in our society.
-Dallas Willard

That is exactly what I said, thank you. You are the only reader who questioned my words and motives, which I found quite disturbing.
All I ever want to do is to serve God with my pen and encourage my brethren in Christ where I can. I thank you for responding in this latest post. @Knittinggrace

Thank you for your kindness, may God bless you 🙏@Cherishingsparrows2020
I cannot agree with most of your argument against my post, for you are missing an important ingredient in quoting me and in quoting scripture : context! You can misquote me all you like, but misquoting Scripture is dangerous! I can see we are not going to agree here, thus I can only say I wish you well. I will be praying this matter through and in particular for you. @Knittinggrace
No that is not what I said at all!
Read the whole thing and apply context to what I write please.
General William Booth Founder of the Salvation Army once wisely said: "how can I tell a man of the love of Christ and expect him to understand it if he is hungry?" The reality is that if a person is in need of a loving word or even food quoting Bible verses to them is unkind, when instead you can show them practical love followed by an appropriate verse or two.
That is what I was saying quite clearly. @Knittinggrace

India is home to multiple religious beliefs and practices, including Hinduism, Islam, Christianity, Sikhism, Buddhism, Jainism, Zoroastrianism and Judaism. In the past, the country has been known for not only its diversity but also tolerance. It is widely believed that because of this tolerance, religions that originated in other countries/regions flourished in India. However, the use of religion in political mobilisation has over the last three decades led to the Indian society being polarised and witnessing communal violence. One of the narratives that has long been used is that members of the Christian and Muslim minorities engage in forceful conversions. As a result, several state governments have enacted Freedom of Religion Acts, commonly known as anti-conversion laws.
