Name that Quote

The last Name that Quote I posted was exceedingly obscure. So obscure was it that I should have offered a prize to the one who could identify the speaker (no one could). Today’s quote is much less so, and so it would be unfair to offer a prize this time.

. . . what can I say to an Islamic brother who has fed the hungry, and clothed the naked? You say, “But he hasn’t a personal relationship with Christ.” I would argue with that. And I would say from a Christian perspective, in as much as you did it to the least of these you did it unto Christ. You did have a personal relationship with Christ, you just didn't know it.

Hint: While I normally post quotes from dead theologians, this one is still living—physically, anyway.

No Googling!

Tony Campolo. Though I must assume you are not referring to him as a theologian.

I was going to say C.S. Lewis, but he's been dead for a while. Even though he included some inclusivism into "The Last Battle" I find it difficult to believe he would stray so far from the Bible.

I just read that quote at the last blog I visited, so I know who said it.

I was shocked. I still am.

Jimmy Carter or Billy Graham or Rick Warren

If none of those than I have struck out.

It is Tony Campolo. I figured this one would be easy.
