Some basic differences between Christianity and Hinduism:
| Christians | Hinduism |
|---|---|
|
God: God exists as Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
|
God: "Brahman is formless, abstract, eternal being without attributes. Takes form in a trinity as well as millions of lesser gods."
|
|
Jesus Christ: He is the only Son of God. He is God as well as man and He died to pay the price for our sins. (John 1 : 1 & 1 : 14; John 10 : 30; 1 Peter 2 : 24)
|
Jesus Christ: Christ wasn't the Son of God, being no more divine than any other man. He didn't die for our sins.
|
|
Salvation: Comes through faith in Jesus Christ as the Son of God through whom you have forgiveness of your sins through His sacrificial death on the cross. (Romans 3 : 22-25; Hebrews 2 : 9-10)
|
Salvation: Man is justified through devotion, meditation, good works and self control.
