I spent this afternoon talking to a Buddhist. Really nice bloke, and I'm looking forward to talking further with him. But to him, the claim that Jesus and only Jesus has the truth about God, was a stumbling block. There are only two positions that a person can take with Jesus. Acceptance or rejection.
Many people think they can sit on the fence.
But the scripture says there is salvation in no one else. He who does not help me gather the grain really scatters. If you do believe in him, the living stone, then God makes you into living stones. In the same way that Christ the living stone is rejected by men but chosen by God and precious to him, so are you. One of the purposes of a temple is to be a place where people have access to God.
