"IS JESUS THE ONLY WAY TO GOD?"
Aren't all religions the same?
Don't all roads lead to heaven?
Don't we all believe in the same God, and we call Him by different names?
Don't all religions teach some of the truth?
Aren't all religions just spokes on the same wheel?
THE LAW OF NON-CONTRADICTION: Two contradictory statements cannot be true simultaneously, in the same sense.
JESUS' CLAIM TO BE THE ONLY WAY:
#1, Seems EXCLUSIVE
#2, Seems INTOLERANT
#3, Seems UNFAIR
EXCLUSIVE?
"It is safe to say the most offensive aspect of 20th century Christianity is its exclusiveness." -J. Herbert Kane
The truth is, Christianity is the least complicated and most inclusive of any religion.
IN ALMOST EVERY RELIGION, YOU HAVE TO EARN YOUR WAY TO GOD:
-Buddhism... nirvana attained by doing works.
-Hinduism... moksha attained by doing works.
-Islam... salvation attained by doing works, maybe.
-Judaism... salvation attained by doing works.
Christianity is one word: DONE. God already paid the price for you to be connected to Him. It's free.
Christianity's inclusivity is unmatched because its offer of salvation is open to anyone, anywhere, at any time—free of charge.
You don't do anything. You simply accept Someone.
INTOLERANT?
Instead of questioning whether there is only one way to God, be thankful, God loved us enough to provide a way.
Jesus being the only way is only intolerant if it's not true.
UNFAIR?
God is good. God is loving. God will open himself up to be known by every person.
You'll never experience true life until you trust in and follow Jesus.
Jesus is the only way to God.
