Re: Words of the Wise (the Inconsistency here)

Greetings I
let INI look carefully at di text I woman used as an Isample to di sistren...my reply will be in captal letters only to avoid CONfusion..

This, of course, brings us back to Barth's remark. "Only one thing is really decisive for the distinction of truth and error … Jesus Christ." HERE THE INTERVIEWER USES BARTHS IDEA, WHICH HE AGREES WITH TO BASE HIS INTERVIEW.

On this matter, the Dalai Lama himself said one time that he is not worthy to be compared with Jesus. HERE THE INTERVIEWER SAYS THAT DALI LAMA SAYS HE IS NOT TO BE COMPARE TO JESUS

He wrote in one of his books that Jesus is "a fully enlightened being." HERE DALI LAMA IS SAYING THAT HE HIMSELF IS NOT YET *FULLY* ENLIGHTENED

Given that affirmation, I said to him that if Jesus is fully enlightened then He must have taught the truth about His identity as Son of God, and as Lord and Saviour. "Otherwise, He wouldn't be that enlightened, would He?"

The Dalai Lama's answer astonished me a year ago, and it still does. He said that Jesus was allowed to teach things that were not true because the people were not ready for the highest truths.
HERE DALI LAMA SAYS JESUS TAUGHT UNTRUTHS BECAUSE THE TRUTHS JESUS WOULD HAVE TO GIVE (LIKE THAT JESUS IS GOD)HUMAN BEINGS WERE NOT READY FOR

He made it clear that he does not regard Jesus as a liar in any sense since He was teaching for a good cause.HERE IT IS SAID THAT THE DALI LAMA NEVER SAID JESUS WAS A LIAR

Although the Dalai Lama's reply to my point (one borrowed from C. S. Lewis) is consistent with Buddhism,HERE THE INTERVIEWER STATES THAT THE REPLY TO DI QWESTION IS TYPICALLY BUDDHIST

it is utterly inconsistent with any ordinary claim that Jesus is a "fully enlightened person."
HERE THE INTERVIEWER IS STATING THAT IF JESUS IS AS THE DALI LAMA STATES, MORE ENLIGHTENED OR FULLY ENLIGHTENED EVEN MORE FULLY THAN THE LAMA HIMSELF, THAT HIS RASPONSE ABOUT JESUS LYING FOR 'INI SAKES', IS INCONSISTENT WITH SAYING HE IS FULLY ENLIGHTENED...

The whole matter shows the unseen forces at work in truth telling. Sharing the gospel is not just about reason or debate. It is ultimately about spiritual blindness and the need for illumination by the Spirit of God to the truth of Jesus as the light of God. That light is for the Dalai Lama. For me. For all. HERE THE INTERVIEWER CONCLUDES HIS THOUGHTS ON THE INTERVIEW ABOUT WHAT APPROACH SHOULD BE TAKEN WHEN WITNESSING TO OTHERS ABOUT THE LIGHT OF GOD, THRU THE HOLA SPIRIT...NUH TRUE?

SO BREDRIN, ME STILL CYANT FOLLOW YUH REASONING BUT IT NUH MEAN INI SHOULDNT REASON STILL...GIVE THANKS
RASPECK AN LOVE
