I'm not going to get into a debate over the non-essentials. I won't try to change other denominations. Why be divisive?
Rick WarrenThe problem is that tolerant has changed its meaning. It used to mean 'I may disagree with you completely, but I will treat you with respect. Today, tolerant means - 'you must approve of everything I do.' There's a difference between tolerance and approval. Jesus accepted everyone no matter who they were. He doesn't approve of everything I do, or you do, or anybody else does either. You can be accepting without being approving.
Rick WarrenBe grateful for who you are and whatever you have. Everything you have is a gift from God.
Rick Warren
