Scripture states that Christ his death on the cross opened
salvation for all.
he also say tat he is the only way to heaven. So should we
reject tat statement ?
As for Scriputre supporting this idea, there are like this
one:
"where love is, there is God" and encouraged to hope that the love
a person expressed in their life was an outworking of the Holy
Spirit of Christ at work in their hearts and drawing them toward
communion with God (see Romans 2:14-16).
And as I said to love and to do good deeds is accepting Christ for
God is love.
Wait a minute.. I don't see any words in tat passage tat suggest
the above
Indeed, when Gentiles, who do not
have the law, do by nature things required by the law, they are a
law for themselves, even though they do not have the law, 15since
they show that the requirements of the law are written on their
hearts, their consciences also bearing witness, and their thoughts
now accusing, now even defending them.) 16This will take place on
the day when God will judge men's secrets through Jesus Christ, as
my gospel declares
Christians take it that God is good and loving. About the point
of religion killing people, I'll not go any further than to say
this:Religion does not cause wars, it is people who twist religion
to suit their agendas.
I guess i was not clear about tis but the scriptures itself says
tat god made mens fight wars against other tribes. It is not about
men, it is about god himself involving in the war written in his
own words.
Hitler certainly did not believe he was doing it for God. Though
he used Christian literature in his own distorted way. At the most
he justified his actions at certain moments by drawing parrells
with Christian literature. After he came to power he closed down
Christian churchs and set up his own church.
There r many evidences tat show hitler believes in christ but I
do not wish to dwell on tat matter. The pope for a time even praise
god for him managing to escape an assasination
But more importantly, if someone claims he is doing for God,
then:
The action cannot contradict the commandment of loving one's
neighbour, if it does that person certainly is not doing it for
God.
In the OT, there r several acts tat warrants the "death"
penalty. If he goes around killing prostitutes, he does not really
deviate from the teachings of the bible.
