In my last blog I made a slight typographical error. The blog was entitled, Rebuttal to Renouncing Christ. It should have read, Rebuttal Renouncing Christianity. It was in response to a statement written by Anne Rice and posted on Facebook which was reprinted in that blog. This was immediately called to my attention by my fellow blogger who said, “She didn’t renounce Christ, but she was renouncing Christianity.”
In her statement, Ms Rice stated, “In the name of …Christ, I quit Christianity and being Christian. Amen” – Anne Rice.
Webster’s defines renounce as, (1) to formally give up a claim or right, (2) to give up a claim or practice, (3) to cast off or to disown.
Quitting Christ, quitting being Christian or quitting Christianity, according to the Bible, there is no difference.
