Mission Possible
"This is a first hand account of an individual, who recently attended a concert by the group known as U2. Here is what she saw first hand. 'If you have never been to a U2 show, let me tell you it was everything you ever expected it to be, but it was also much, much more. About five songs into their set, Bono stopped the show and strapped on a headband with writing on it. I stared up at the Jumbotron to see that the hand- written lettering said, 'Coexist.'
"Coexisting sounds like a great idea. I fully support the peaceful philanthropy that Bono has encouraged and this seemed like another way he was trying to spread the message, except it started to feel like more than a political message. The "C" in "coexist" was the Islamic crescent moon, the "X" was the Star of David and the "T" was the Cross of Christ.
"Bono pointed at the symbols on his headband first to the cross, then to the star, then to the crescent moon - and he began to repeat, "Jesus, Jew, Mohammed - all true. Jesus, Jew, Mohammed - all true."
"Honestly and frankly, that is becoming the increasing chant of many people in the world today, including many, who profess to be Christians. This raises the central question that we must ask, before we even talk about missions and evangelism and that is this - Is There Only One Way That Leads To God Or Are There Several? Or is the truth somewhere in between? I am going to raise three questions about missions today - all of which deserve an answer, both from you and for you."
