GANDHI & THE ‘CHRISTIANS'



When Mahatma Gandhi was attending university in London, he became almost convinced of the validity of Christianity, seeing it as possibly the one true supernatural religion.

After graduation, he continued to seek evidence that would persuade him to become a committed Christian.

When he accepted employment in East Africa & lived with a family who were members of an evangelical Christian church, he believed this would be his greatest source of evidence for the Christian faith.

Gandhi lived with this family for 7 months, but after seeing their casual attitude towards God & hearing them complain about making sacrifices for Christ, he became disillusioned.

"No," he concluded, "Christianity is not the one true, supernatural religion I had hoped to find; a good religion, but just one more of the many religions in the world."

“Not everyone who calls me their Lord will get into the kingdom of heaven. Only the ones who obey my Father in heaven will get in.”- Lord Jesus (Mat 7:21 CEV).
