Once saved
always saved? Is Christianity the
only way to Heaven? If I am a good
Jew, will I go to Heaven? If I am a
good Muslim, will I go to Heaven? If
I am a good person, will I go to Heaven?
Jesus Christ
is the only way to God, the Lord in not limited by CHRISTIANITY!!!
The Lord can do what ever he wants to do, which is why he is the King of
Heaven. If I am a good Muslim or
good Jew and I die, then the Lord may choose to give me an offering John 5:25 (Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour
is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and
they that hear shall live). If I am
a good Jew, Muslim, or person, then when I die and the Lord chooses to give me
an offering what made me good? How
could I be chosen while others perished in Hell?
Moses provides the answer to this question.
Moses was not sinless, however if you are Jewish when you die you will be
judged by Moses John 5:45-46
("But do not think I, Jesus Christ will
accuse you before the Father. Your accuser is Moses, on whom your hopes are set.
If you believed Moses, you would believe me,).
Moses is judge of the Jewish Nation, so what is Moses looking for in
order for him to give an offering into heaven by the authority of our Lord and
Savior Jesus Christ? If I am a good
Jew, I can get into Heaven by the judgment of Moses based on the grace of Jesus
Christ.
Does being a good person really matter?
Any good Jew would say yes!
What makes a good Jew? When a good
Jew dies, what is Moses looking for in the description of a good Jew?
Moses is looking for one characteristic;
do you have the LOVE of GOD in your
Heart? A good Jew does
well, because he or she has the Love of God in his or her Heart.
This is what makes a Muslim good and a person good.
If you are a Jew, Muslim, or person and are judged not to have the love
of god in your heart, then you will not be given access to Heaven.
Am I a
follower or a leader? In the
Universe, in order to be a leader I must be the absolute best at what I do or I
am just a follower of the one who is the best.
This is the point of Jesus, he is good.
He is the leader of good. If
you think you are good, then you will be put to the test and others will see
your faults and point them out to you.
If you think you are the father of evil, then you will soon see that you
were just a follower and that the leader of evil existed long before your
creation.
We can talk
all day about what is good, however evil is clearly evident.
Torture...Murder...Rape...Good has nothing to do with any of that latter.
Why is Jesus Christ the only way to God? For many, implying that
there is only one way to God is restrictive. In order to answer the first
question, we must look at one accomplishment that Christ had that no other
person has achieved. Christ is the only way to God, because he is the only
one who has ever defeated Satan.
Let’s say hypothetically, I am playing a video game. The objective
of the game is to defeat the opponent to win. This may sound easy, but to
defeat your opponent might be extremely difficult. Many could play
this game for years and never win. Once someone won the game everyone
would want to know THE WAY. Thus the
only way to get to heaven is to defeat the one that is trying to take you to
hell. Jesus Christ is the only way to God, because he is the only way to defeat
Satan or Evil. Thus every human being that has been on this planet has
either faced judgment or forgiveness through Jesus Christ.
If I am
Muslim, and the Lord knows that I have the Love of God in my Heart why would I
convert to Christianity? No need.
If you are not a Christian and you die, then you will be judged!
The Lord will judge you and determine whether you have the Love of God in your
heart.
This may anger many Christians; however Christianity is not the only way
to God. Christians are of many
denominations based on issues like once saved always saved.
When a person is baptized they are saved, to question the salvation is to
question the baptism. Do not
question the baptism; otherwise any sin committed by the best of persons could
bring salvation into question. Once
a person is baptized, then their sins are forgiven.
When they die they will face forgiveness and be granted access to Heaven.
This tends to upset a good Jew.
Why be good, if all I have to do is get baptized?
Jesus spoke
of this issue in the parable of the wedding banquet.
Christianity offers an invitation to all.
However some that get in are not wearing the correct cloths and are
thrown out. Wearing the correct
cloths concerns the LOVE OF GOD IN YOUR HEART.
