What makes Christianity different from other religions?
In any other religion it is about man pursuing God. Only in Christianity does God pursue man.
That is why it has to be true.
Our finite minds cannot compute the ridiculousness of grace. It seems so unfathomable to us because that is not how our world works. If someone sins against you, they have to pay.
We do not naturally understand this concept of forgiveness, of letting go.
How can a holy God, the creator of everything let our sins go?!
It does seem to good to be true, but the fact is, it still is TRUE.
All we have to do is recognize the opposite of what our natural bent tells us, that we do not have to do anything to earn our way into heaven but trust that Jesus' gift is all we need.
Man could not have made up something so ridiculous. And it is. I know it is. That is why it is also so amazing!
We do nothing; God does everything.
Any other religion was created by man. Any other religion consists of a series of steps and good deeds you have to do to earn your way into heaven. Any other religion IS WRONG.
Only Christianity is THE TRUTH.
Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth the life, no one can come to the father except through me."
And you cannot be in the middle. Jesus said, "You are either for me or against me." You have to pick one, either you love him or hate him. The choice is yours.
Choose life, that you might live. Amen :)
