Who will recieve salvation?

Question

A muslim who follow the teachings and example of Jesus or a Christian who does not follow the teachings of Jesus but claim they are saved because they believe he is God?

Answer 1

Muslims believe that mankind's salvation will result from the worship of God as "One" without equals or partners. Islam teaches us that we can pray directly to God without an intermediary and that no soul can bear the burden of another. The Qur'an teaches us that only God can forgive sins, punish or reward. The Qur'an also teaches us that the nature of humanity is good, and we did not inherit sin from Adam. Each soul comes into being free of sin and inclined toward goodness and is capable of doing good and unless taught against its nature, will incline toward good deeds. The teachings of Islam guide mankind back to our pure nature through knowledge of God.

The original, unchanged revelations given to Abraham and other prophets(like Moses and Jesus ) reaching back to Adam all came from the One True God(The Creator). This common origin explains their similarities in many beliefs and values


However, over time the teachings of the various religions, due to a variety of reasons, have become distorted and mixed with made-man ideas.


The last Prophet and Messenger of God, Muhammad , who is a direct descendant of Abraham through his first born son, Ishmael, was sent with the Last Guidance, Revelation and Testament, the Holy Qur'an(koran) to amend and correct the changes and corruption made to the the "Torah" which was sent to Moses and theTrue Gospel of Jesus.To say the truth ,God preserved all the other Holy Books plainly by preserving His Last Book the Holy Qur'an(koran)which contains the right and the truth of all that was changed in those other Books.


This is why this last Revelation which was sent 1423 years ago has remained unchanged, not even a word or a letter has been altered.


There is not even one word of difference between two Arabic Qur'ans, anywhere in the world. There has been no disagreements in history among Muslims as to what should and should not be in the Qur'an. However, in the case of the Bible, even the most ancient manuscripts conflict with one another so that no two are identical. Footnotes in all modern versions of the Bible prove this fact.


These revisions serve as concrete proofs that all the Biblical books are not at all divinely inspired. This is because it is beyond man's ability to correct the work of his Creator, who alone is Almighty and perfect



It was only natural for Almighty God to preserve the scripture revealed to Prophet Muhammad, because he was the last Prophet and Final Messenger of God.


Islam teaches us that we must pray directly to God without an intermediary and no soul can bear the burden of another and that the nature of humanity is good, and we did not inherit sin from Adam. Each soul comes into being free of sin.in Islam there are no priests or clergy -- each worshipper, man or woman, has a direct relationship with their Merciful Creator -- Almighty God. Since God is the Owner and Sustainer of everything, as well as the only one who can provide true and complete forgiveness, it is completely futile to try to approach Him through anyone else.


The oneness and universality of God's message requires that people accept all the messengers of God. Rejecting one of them amounts to rejecting them all. The Jews reject Jesus's mission and Muhammad's mission; the Christians reject Muhammad's mission; whereas the Muslims accept them all, but reject incorrect historical interpretations and human elements in these missions.


As the Qur'an is the final revelation and Muhammad is the final prophet, humanity is obligated to accept it: "If anyone desires a religion other than Islam, never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost all spiritual good" (3:86).


The Final Prophet Muhammad said: "Whoever believes there is no god but God, alone without partner, that Muhammad is His messenger, that Jesus is messenger of God, and that Paradise and Hell are true, shall be received by God into Heaven."


you can do that now as you are reading these lines is to pronounce the two confirmations and attestations of faith, here it is




I BEAR WITNESS THAT THERE IS NO GOD WORTHY OF WORSHIP EXCEPT ALLAH ( ARABIC WORD MEANS ONE GOD-THE CREATOR). AND I BEAR WITNESS THAT MUHAMMAD IS HIS SERVANT AND MESSENGER. I BEAR WITNESS THAT JESUS IS HIS SERVANT AND MESSENGER.



The right picture of lslam is conveyed in the Qur'an, which is exemplified by Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him. The reality is that it is not fair to judge a religion by the actions of its followers alone because there are good and bad followers in every religion. The correct thing to do is to judge a religion by its documented revelation from God and the prophet who brought that revelation.

I encourage Christians and other religions to learn about Islam from Muslim sources and The Basis Of The Muslim Belief and not rely on second hand information which in many cases is distorted or contains a deep seated anti Muslim agenda. This is indeed a more scholarly approach

Answer 2

A Muslim by definition does not believe that Jesus is the son of God, and made atonement for his sin through Jesus, a Christian by definition is one who believes that Jesus is the son of God made atonement for his sins, and will out of love and respect for Him will follow the teachings of Christ. That being said,if you go by the tenets of The Bible, the Muslim will not be saved, the Christian will but he needs to work on the relationship he has with Jesus. Because we are told to bear fruit, not just say we are Christian.

Answer 3

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.John 3:16.

Only those who believe in Jesus, who accept His atoning sacrifice on the Cross, and make Him Lord of your life will be saved.

Anyone who has another belief system, even good Muslims, will not be saved.

Answer 4

Anyone whose calls on the name of the Lord can be saved. They have to believe that Jesus died on the cross, and rose again 3 days later, and is now sitting on the right hand of God. Know one can no whose heart is truly saved. That is between God, and that person. We are not to judge if someone is saved, but if we are saved you will know it by our fruits: love, kindness, peace, joy, longsuffering. We don't work for salvation, but we do want to do things for the Lord.

Answer 5

It is only up to God. Well, it would be between God and that person. All of us can receive the gift of salvation, but you should have a more personal relationship with God instead of just believing so you can escape the fire.
So...it really depends on Him.

Answer 6

If you are not a member of Christ church you will not meet Christ in the cloud when he comes back to take home his bride ( which is the church) After all the Church belongs to Christ.

Luke 21:27Beginning:
And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.

Revelation 1:7 beginning:
Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so,

Answer 7

A Christian is a person who is saved and a Christ follower!

Answer 8

Why must the Muslims ask these questions?

Don't they know only God determines salvation.

And that humans are not supposed to point the fingers at who does and doesn't recieve it.

Answer 9

You can't be a christian and not belive in Jesus. Muslims aren't Muslims if they believe in Jesus.

Answer 10

considering which you're agnostic, it rather is not going you like any salvation. purely once you're conscious of being no longer efficient sufficient to guard all mysteries on your life, than you're waiting to settle for God.
