: Is there salvation through
any other or is there another means? “Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other
name under heaven, given among men, whereby we must be saved” (Acts 4:12). In fact, “There
is one God, and one mediator [one way] between God and men, the man Christ
Jesus” (1 Tim 2:5-8). Why? “For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we
might be made the righteousness of God in him” (2 Cor 5:21). In other words, no religion or religious head can save anyone. Yes, it might feel good to be a Buddhist, Hindu, Muslim, Mason or
apart of any other religion or fraternity. In fact, it gives some degree
of satisfaction based on our built in belief system. However, they cannot and will not save anyone; “there is [always]
a way that seemeth right unto man, but the end thereof is death” (Prov
14:12). There is no two ways or many ways to God. There is only one way,
one mediator. “For wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction,
and many there be which go in thereat” (Matt 7:13). “Enter ye in at the
strait gate,” which is Jesus. Christian leaders who promote inter-faithism on the basis that they
are many ways to God, err greatly in the scriptures. They not only tolerate
but also combine all religions in one; such practitioners are in danger
of eternal damnation. God usually allows his people to do any thing to him with little
punishment. But when it comes to having other gods, or other streams,
he is very intolerant. It’s like spiritual adultery. Think, if you come
home and caught your husband or wife with another person. The same feelings
and result can be mirrored here. As Bishop Thomas usually says, “one woman is enough for one man.”
Jehovah God, revealed as Jesus Christ is more than enough for humanity,
a trillion times a trillion over. God made it clear before he came as Jesus Christ that salvation is
only through him (Judeo-Christianity) by declaring, “I, even, I am the Lord and beside me there is no savior” (Isaiah
43:11). When he did come as Jesus Christ he reaffirmed this, “I am the way, the truth,
and the life: no man cometh unto the Father (GOD), but
by me”
(John 14:6). |
