If the paintings in the direction of the shortest direction to salvation might have the comparable magnitude and weight as taking the paintings in the direction of longer direction..then honestly i might take the former. otherwise, in the event that they do no longer equate with one yet another, then i would not strategies taking the long direction to salvation, so as that i'd desire to mesmerize each and each little bit of the conflict that I would desire to bypass by using, savour the exhilaration of finding decrease back at them and how I gained over the aggravating circumstances, and delight in the sensation of being fearless taking on the longer direction in the direction of salvation.

The shortest route is usually the bumpiest! I would prefer going the long hard way to seek the truth.

The shortest route is repenting and living the life taught by Jesus the Messiah, not following the barbaric pagan syncretism that is known as the Quran.

its n r nature to b stubborn and hard headed at times we think we know everthing and know a whole lot of nothing
But christ on the other had not only knows everthing he designed
and created all things. think of it this way (parents) when u tell a child to do something they want to know y and how come, now u allready know what lies ahead so ur warning them but do they listening Of Course Not! U tell them not to do it THEY do it any
way go figure well christ can b viewed n the same way see HE"S
a gentleman so he doesn't force himself on any one and he doesn't put u don't for what u believe n he simply lays out the truth and allows u to choose. Now thats where alot of us gets messed up FREE WILL so even though we r given the easiest
and the safest way out Route66 (BIBLE) we follow diffrent paths now many will eventually find there way home but sad to say alot won't but they can never say they were not giving the oppurtunity to choose life. And so does GOD so what do u choose Short way or the senic route home.
i myself took the senic route in the beginning but grace and mercy lead me home.

I would want to prove it to myself no matter what, there is far to much in this world to ignore if you only take the shortest route. If they all lead to the same place, why take the short rout, when you can enjoy the knowledge of the long?

I have taken the shortest route to salvation - I accepted that Jesus is the way the truth and the light. Now I have a purpose in life, which is to love my neighbour, and my God.

Any, more suicidal attempts at salvation are false, and only ruin other people's chance of salvation.

I am not really sure I completely understand your question.If God said Here I am, come to me , sure I would take it.But if you are asking if someone had a ticket and maybe I could sneak in, no. I have made many mistakes in my life that have made me the child of God that I am. He has seen me through some very tough times that has made me a good person.We have to go through the tough to make us the kind of people God wants us to be.I hope I answered the right question.

Salaam!
I know what your getting at, but I personally feel that the route isnt short at all... Its a long hard road, no matter what you believe.. You have to work at it and figure it out along the way.. There are trials and errors to overcome.. There is no really easy way...

If you mean "convert to Islam", no thank you!

I don't fancy praying the way you guys do five times a day.

Besides, how can you expect me to believe a guy who was himself illiterate and yet calmly declared that he had the "uncorrupted" versions of the Old and New Testaments?

A guy who claimed that Gabriel came and talked to him ?

You know where a guy who says that kind of thing would land in, nowadays? The padded cell.

Besides, there are a lot of reasons why I wouldn't "Convert" to that ... thing.

I'd rather figure it out myself, thank you very much.

Merry Christmas!!!!!

“Go in through the narrow gate; because broad and spacious is the road leading off into destruction, and many are the ones going in through it; whereas narrow is the gate and cramped the road leading off into life, and few are the ones finding it.” (Matthew 7:13, 14)

I think, if the gate is cramped so is the way which means it cannot be a short trip there....
