The Distraction of Difference

While I believe that Jesus is the way and the truth and the life I can also believe that other religions and philosophies have good things to say. With all my heart I believe that Jesus is the way to eternal life. Yet, in this life one can have a good life following other religions or philosophies. It is up to us as Christians to let our light so shine that they see our Father in heaven not force them into our path. To do that we need to look more at our commonality than our differences. Even in Christianity we too often look at our differences and form denominations or non-denominations on these differences. Is it no wonder that people are confused and turn from the truth because we as Christian can't unite on the truths we hold but argue over the differences we choose to hold tighter.
