[quote:806a5]What he is saying is that he thinks it is quite arrogant to believe that your religion is the only one. What kind of God would choose just you and your church to enter paradise. Is God so vengful that he would let the majority of the world go to hell because they were born to a culture that wasnt predominantly christian?

When the ten commandments were handed down the first said "I am the lord your God, put not other Gods before me." This was the god of abraham, issac and moses. This was the god of the hebrews, the god of the old testament. This was Yahweh (sp?), Allah and the God of Jesus.

This is the difference in believing you find salvation thru acts or grace. I believe it is thru acts. Much of the distaste found for religions stems from the grace group. The attitude of "I can lie cheat and steal, as long as I go to church on sunday and profess my faith, I will be saved" along with the arrogance of "my way is the only way" really doesnt sit well with many people.

Thats what he meant by "See?" [/quote:806a5]

Yes, yes, I know what he means. I was being sarcastic. :) The GOd I worshiop is not Allah, it is a diferent God, a real true loving God, not some insane not job that like to kill innocent people. Yes He is the GOd of the Hebrews, and also the God of all other races, no matter how much you want it to be, you are not going to Heaven thorugh acts of your own, well besides the act of accepting Jesus, other than that no act will get you to Heaven. Yes, believeing in Jesus is the only way, no other religion will get you there, if you do not believe me, just read the Bible and compare religions, just see what makes the most sense, why has nobody done this? Are you afraid? Just do I dare ya to. :)

It is not I that condem you, but the Lord Almighty. Im just trying to help you see the way, but its up to you. Im no better than anybody else in the world, but I do have Jesus, and that makes me saved and going to heaven. Have I ever question Gods exsistance? Yes, but then I pray or I do something and I ill get the reassurance that God does live. Satan gives us doubts and thoughts like these, but if you pray to God He will help you.
