Frequently Asked Questions

4. What so special about Christianity?

All religions are definitely not the same. Basic beliefs such as the concept of God and good and evil differ so dramatically among some religions that they actually contradict one another.Therefore, religions can't all be true and thus all lead to God.

If the religions of the world are carefully studied, one becomes aware that no provision is made for the remission of sin, apart from the cross of Jesus Christ. Basically, most religions embrace the philosophy of good works as a means of salvation. They subscribe to the concept that if your good works outweigh your bad works, you will go to Heaven. But, if your bad works outweigh your good works, you will go to Hell, if there is one. Of course, you will never know whether you reach Heaven or Hell, unless your life is over. [ How inadequate is such a religion or philosophy ]. God has promised that we can know Him and have fellowship with him now and for all eternity, through His son, the Lord jesus Christ.

Is it intolerant to say that one religion is true? Truth by its very nature is exclusive and is intolerant of error. Thinking or stating that another view is false is not intolerance; tolerance implies disagreement. True tolerance accepts the rights of others to have a different belief without the threat of violence. All religions cannot lead to God because they contradict one another. And it is not intolerant of Christians to say that Jesus is the only way to God.

Christianity is not a religion... It's a relationship with God through Jesus Christ." To be a Christian, one must first understand and believe that God exists, and that he is the one true God. One must also believe that Jesus is Christ, Son of the Living God, and that he was sent here by his Father to forgive our sins.

Another fact that we must come to terms with is that we are all sinners. As stated in Romans 3:23, "everyone has sinned and is far away from God's presence." In other words, we don't measure up to God's standard of being sinless.

" But by the free gift of God's grace all are put right with him through Christ Jesus, who sets them free." - Romans 3:24. This is one of many verses that tells of how Jesus died for our sins and that the only way to get be right with God and get into heaven is through Jesus Christ, by accepting that gift of forgiveness that is offered to us all in His death upon the cross and His resurrection.

" If you confess that Jesus is Lord and believe that God raised him from death, you will be saved. For it is by our own faith that we are put right with God, it is by our confession that we are saved." - Romans 10:9,10. This involves faith, trust, and acceptance (of both the Truth and the Gift). "As the scripture says, 'Everyone who calls out to the Lord for help will be saved.'" - Romans 10:13.
