have we learned jesus
How have we learned Christ? It ought to be a startling thought, that we may have learned him wrong. That must be far worse than not to have learned him at all: his place by a false Christ, hard to exorcise! The point is, whether we have learned Christ as he taught himself, or as men have taught him who thought they understood, but did not understand him . . . Have we learned Christ in false statements and corrupted lessons about him, or have we learned himself? - George McDonald, The Truth in Jesus

That is a sobering thought... It is hard to be willing to let go of ideas that have been engrained in us all of our lives. I''m not saying that we are all brainwashed Christians, but sometimes I wonder how much of my belief system is truth and how much is skewed by mans imperfection and arrogance.
