How are we supposed to respond to the implicit messages in this meme?

Christian man in Pakistan violently attacked three times sent to prison instead of assailantsDear Dr. E: A meme is making the rounds this week on social media. It says something like this: “And now a word from Jesus – I never told you to hate anybody. I don’t care where they’re from, what they look like, who they’re in love with, or who they worship. Why is this so difficult?” Can you tell me what your reaction to this is? — SINCERELY, AN OLD COLLEGE FRIEND FROM MICHIGANYes, I also saw the meme.

Now, let’s address something perhaps even more disturbing in the meme than these two fallacies: the contention that Jesus “doesn’t care who we worship.” Frankly, there is so much wrong with this singular statement that an entire book could be written on it. Oh, wait, I think one has already been written. It’s called the Bible.“Jesus said to them, ’Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I am.

“For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus.” 1 Timothy 2:5 “There is salvation in no one else , for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.” Acts 4:12
