Anglican Leader, The Archbishop of Canterbury, Praises Hindus Celebrating Diwali: ‘(They) Are the Light We Need’
Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight! Woe unto them that are mighty to drink wine, and men of strength to mingle strong drink: Which justify the wicked for reward, and take away the righteousness of the righteous from him!” (Isaiah 5:20-23)
For decades, the deplorable Anglican denomination has been drifting towards damnation, the natural consequence of a debased theology. Led by the simpish and effete hireling Justin Welby, the Archbishop of Canterbury, the Church of England long ago abandoned all biblical fidelity, proving time and time again millions of members are not the least bit committed to upholding the biblical teachings. Instead, they’ve adopted the worst excesses of the woke movement in a pathetic and desperate attempt at relevancy, and it shows. From voting to bless same-sex civil “marriages” to giving a blessing for churches to restructure their Sundays so they could watch a women’s soccer match, these folks are on a downgrade and going at breakneck speeds.
Look no further Welby praising the pagans for celebrating their pagan holiday’ Diwali’ and wishing them well on their week of unrestrained idol worship.
Diwali, known as the festival of Lights, is a day celebration considered the biggest and most important festival in Hinduism. It is also celebrated by Buddhists, Jains, and Sikhs. Thoroughly idolatrous in nature, Diwali is a time when celebrants tell mythological stories about battles between good and evil and offer prayers and supplication to their various deities, including Lakshmi, Ganesh, and Krishna, for their many exploits and wondrous deeds. Yet Welby proffers:
“As we approach the darkest time of the year, we all know what darkness is. And our need for light is so fundamental. Most of us experienced times in our lives that feel like darkness, not being able to find a clear way forward. Often, it’s the small acts of community or family loving kindness, that can bring light into these moments of darkness.
Know what else brings light to moments of darkness? Jesus, who said “I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.” He continues:
…I especially want to celebrate the example of care and kindness that I see in Hindu communities. Through their focus on service to others, Hindus are so often being the light that we need…
You lost me at “Anglican.” This heretical collective has little to do with venerating Christ.
Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” John 8:12 ESV.
Justin Welby – is Jesus not enough for you?
The “light” of Hinduism is actually darkness – see below:
20 Woe to those who call evil good
and good evil,
who put darkness for light
and light for darkness,
who put bitter for sweet
and sweet for bitter!
21 Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes,
and shrewd in their own sight! Isaiah 5:20-21 ESV
