Who Said That?

When asked "is belief in Christ is needed for going to heaven?"

_______ answered, "That one I'm a little more open to.  I think that it is, as we understand our relationship to God as Christians, it is how we see our way forward, and it is the way.  But, ever since I was little . . . I've asked every Sunday school teacher I've ever had, I asked every theologian I've ever talked with, whether that meant that there was no salvation, there was no heaven for people who did not accept Christ. And, you're well aware that there are a lot of answers to that. There are people who are totally rooted in the fact that, no, that's why there are missionaries, that's why you have to try to convert. And, then there are a lot of other people who are deeply faithful and deeply Christ-centered who say, that's how we understand it and who are we to read God's mind about such a weighty decision as that."

You know the drill . . .  Who said that?  Leave your answer in the comments section below.

This is a quote from Hillary Clinton in a recent interview with New York Times reporter Michael Luo in July 2007.

The picture I picked is of Bill and Hillary from much earlier--like wow, dude, it was the seventies.  But it was too good to pass up!

[Paul]

Joel Osteen!

["lee n. field"]

A little too definite for Brian MacLaren. Has Joel O. ever talked with a theologian?

Billy Graham?

[George]

I agree - it has to be Osteen.

[Albert]

Rick Warren!

[R.J. Stevens]

I think it was Hillary Clinton. Sounds like something she stated last week.

[Tim]

I would say Billy Graham, too.

[Father Spike]

'Tis the Hillary.

[RubeRad]

It's Hillary. Happened to run across that last week.

[Brett]

Osteen

[Pach]

It was Hillary. It was in the same interview where she said she "felt the Sprirt move" in her. *shiver*

[Greg]

I don't get many correct, but this one I read last week... Hillary in a NYT interview from last year.

[Danan]

Hillary Clinton.

[Kevin]

With certain certitude...Hillary!®

[Matt]

I was going to guess Osteen, but people are affirming Hillary. How unsurprising that it be her.

[Chris Sherman]

Joel Osteen,

Wasn't that in th 60 minutes interview?

It certainly makes the road fairly broad.

[LLOYD]

It certainly has to be Hank Hanegraaff. As Hank would say, "you have to respond to the light you are given."

[Jim]

Hillary Diane Clinton

[Matt]

You're wrong, Lloyd. That sounds nothing like Hank.

[Matt]

You're wrong, Lloyd. That sounds nothing like Hank.

[Paul G.]

Pach is right. It's Hillary from the interview about felling the Spirit move her.

I knew I read those words recently.
