The Christian Agnostic

Found this on a blog:

'The Christian Agnostic” is inspired by Leslie Weatherhead’s 1965 book by the same name......

Weatherhead defines a Christian Agnostic as someone “who is immensely attracted by Christ who seeks to show his spirit, to meet the challenges, hardships and sorrows of life in the light of that spirit, but who, though he is sure of many Christian truths, feels that he cannot honestly and conscientiously ’sign on the dotted line’ that he believes certain theological ideas about which some branches of the church dogmatize.”'


Hmmm........it would seem that those who reject legalism and embrace God's grace would qualify as "Christian agnostics."

If so, some of my best friends are Christian agnostics!

Love,
Mickey
