Truth About The Crucifixion — Page 248
The statement said that the British Council of Churches looked forward to conversations in the future between Muslims of the Ahmadiyya Movement and Christians for a mutual sharing of convictions of God's compassionate and merciful nature and on questions relating to the significance of Jesus. The response of the Head of the Ahmadiyya Movement Khalifatul Masih III, was both immediate and gracious. At the end of his address to the conference he told the 1,500 delegates and guests, crowding the central halls of the Commonwealth Institute, that he accepted this invitation and that the talks would be held in an atmosphere of love and courtesy. He also suggested that these talks be held in five different places, London, Rome, the capital of a West African country, the capital of a country in Asia and also in the United States of America. The Khalifatul Masih also declared that he would welcome similar talks with the Catholic Church. It is thus evident that the search for the truth about Jesus is bringing all mankind closer together. This is a victory for the One True God. Imam B. A. Rafiq 240
