Correction to Interfaith Relations story
The Presbyterian News Service incorrectly reported in a June 1 General Assembly backgrouder that a 1987 paper on the relationship between Christians and Jews was adopted as official Presbyterian Church (USA) policy. That is incorrect. The paper, "A Theological Understanding of the Relationship Between Christians and Jews," was adopted for study and reflection.
It says that Christians and Jews have distinct, authentic covenants with God, and that faithful coversation between the two groups is appropriate witness. It doesn't say Christians shouldn't talk about Jesus, but it discourages proselytizing. |
