What do you think of other religions?

[Swan7]

God has a name. In fact His name means many things and Righteously so. However, it is revealed to those who ask Him and diligently seek His Kingdom and Face with love.

May you seek treasure in humbleness.

Every time I turn around there seems to be word play going on in the Bible that has a certain significance. It seems like they were much craftier in literature than we are.

understanding the scriptures are given by inspiration of God and therefor singular in their cohesiveness

 

[honey badger]

Exodus 6:3 and I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, as God Almighty, but by My name Jehovah I made Me not known to them.

to name something is to give it a measurement, to measure something two points of reference are needed as in a reasoning between two fruits of a tree .... Jesus came in his/our Fathers name which is to say he came in His identity ....

 

[Basil the Great]

Despite what many here at CF believe, all three Abrahamic religions worship the God of Abraham.

Despite what many here at CF believe, all three Abrahamic religions worship the God of Abraham.

I would say that what many here in CF are saying is that you can’t just switch some meanings around about the God of Abraham, and then claim that it’s still the same thing just because you’re still calling it the God of Abraham.

Abraham's perception of God was three men .... Jesus perception of God was himself ....

I have seen pagan witches who pretend to be spiritual, but want only evil things to happen to you.
I have seen christians who pretend to be good but want to marry president.
I have seen christian pastors who pretend to be advanced in spirituality and even call falsely themselves priests but all their heart is pure hate against neighbour.
So it is not so ok to judge based on religion.
What do you think of other religions?

There are a lot of underlying principles in all religions both good and bad but Christianity is the only religion where man is God or a personnel endless definable truth based on relationship.

 

[Saint Steven]

all religions are a path of a serpent, Christianity being the chief of them ...

Right. Jesus didn't come to bring "religion". Otherwise he would have gotten along fine with the one that was prevalent in Israel. Not what we see.

However, only two of them seem to properly define who God is.

 

[Der Alte]

Despite what many here at CF believe, all three Abrahamic religions worship the God of Abraham.

I beg to differ.

Exodus 3:15
15 And God said moreover unto Moses: 'Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel: The LORD, [יהוה/YHWH] the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you; this is My name for ever, and this is My memorial unto all generations.​

Did YHWH forget that He told Moses His name was YHWH when He supposedly appeared to Muhammad 1000+ years later and supposedly told him His name was "Allah?"

 

[Jesus is YHWH]

religion is not Christianity. religion is works based system of salvation.

Christianity is a relationship with Christ. Christianity is faith based salvation apart from any works.

Once a relationship is established between God and man via the new birth(2nd birth) then we become Gods workmanship created in Christ Jesus for good works done through the spirit of God not the flesh( as taught in religions of the world).

We obey His commands out of love for the Savior. We love him because He first loved us. Being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.

hope this helps !!!

 

[Jipsah]

The Bible is subject to interpretation.

What do you mean by "subject"?

 

[Jipsah]

the bible interprets itself ...

That's why we're all in agreement on what it means.

 

[Jipsah]

i would say all religions share one common lie, which is they believe in a God who is separate from them

Hooboy.

 

[Jipsah]

We do know how to spell it: יהוה.

you sure its not spelled Kyrios or Theos seeing the new testament is written in Greek ...

My name is still the same whether the letters I use to write it are Roman or Korean.

 

[Jok]

However, only two of them seem to properly define who God is.

I agree I almost added that.

 

[Jesus is YHWH]

The only 2 branches of all Religions that define God correctly as Triune are Protestantism and Catholicism as the Creeds support.

hope this helps !!!

What do you think of other religions?

It's not about religion or people, nor about how good or bad people interact with others individually, but about God and His Word. He is called the Father in the Bible, and we are told that all things were created by God by and through His Word, who, when He was born into the world, was named Ya'hoshua (Jesus) meaning "Yahoveh/Jehovah is salvation", and He said no one can come to God the Father except through faith in (believing in, trusting in and fully relying upon) Him.

He is called the last Adam and the Son of man because like the first Adam, He represents all mankind to God. He bore all man's sin and iniquity and transgression in His own body when He died on the cross, and He rose again and ascended into heaven 40 days later. Therefore the Bible also tells us that there is no mediator between God and man except the man who we call Jesus.

In other words, it's not about looking around us at the religions of this world, not about looking around us to see which people are nice and who is not so nice, but about looking up to Christ who is seated at the right hand of God.

Christianity is not about religion. It's not about people. It's about Jesus.

So what do I think about other religions?

I don't think about them.

Can you tell us what 3 religions you are talking about. Thanks !

Non-Messianic Judaism has the correct God (just the wrong approach). Israel was the vessel through which God chose to reveal Himself to the rest of us.
