| And you also need to know... And you also need to realize that the main difference is how the religions relate to sin. Muslims and all the others who believe in a God, besides Christianity, believe that they can work themselves to heaven, but we all know that you cannot be perfect (sinless). Just Read the Ten Commandments and see that you and I alike are condemned. "Though shalt not bear false witness" Have you lied, I know that I have!!! "Do not use my name in vain." Have you ever said, "Oh my God!" I have..."Though shalt not murder" In the Bible it says that anyone who hates his friend is a murderer....Have you hated before. We are all condemned!!! "For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, {it is} the gift of God; not as a result of works, so that no one may boast."(Ephesians 2:8-9 NAS) but also, "Even so faith, if it has no works, is dead, {being} by itself." (James 2:17 NAS). So what do we do about our sin? We are all condemned! Why should God send us to heaven on Judgement day?...Do you think he will? Not a chance: Why would a "Good" Judge let a guilty man go? He would make sure that Justice is done!!! We are Condemned!!! But the One and only Triune God forgave us through Jesus Christ his one and only son!!! He was the one who put to death our sin, on a Cross. He sacrificed his life for us in our place, and rose from the Grave Three days later. Now all God says to do is to Believe... "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only son, and whoever believes in him will not perish but have eternal life"(John 3:16) He is also the only God who we can have a personal relationship with, and if you were God wouldn't you want that? You wouldn't create a human just to watch and see him screw up all the time! Click here to know more about other religions... |
