jesus?!? if i didnt beliEve?? part 2?

Question

to the people saying no i wouldnt go to heaven....how can u say that so all the jews, buddist, Islams are going to hell for not believing jesus was the son of god??? thats outrageous

Answer 1

Do you understand the idea of a belief?

Answer 2

It may be outrageous, but it is almost certainly the correct view of what the biblical message says.

There have been attempts to imply that everyone is eventually saved, perhaps involving an encounter with Jesus after death, but they have never been mainstream or, to my mind, convincing.

It's something for both Non-Christians and Christians to ponder. If Christians really believe this, why are so FEW of them involved in active evangelism? And for the outsiders, it does make it clear that there is no real "moderate" form of Christianity (Except that which is in essence a mere social club, which the bible itself condemns).
Christianity is ether very right, or very, very wrong. There isn't really a middle ground.
"It's a good idea to be good" IS NOT the message of Christianity. It's that you are damned for not being good enough, but there is one way out. Just the one.

You can't really be "sort of" or "middle of the road" about that.

Perfect Happiness: Now and Forever

[41:30] Those who proclaim: "Our Lord is GOD," then lead a righteous life, the angels descend upon them: "You shall have no fear, nor shall you grieve. Rejoice in the good news that Paradise has been reserved for you.

[41:31] "We are your allies in this life, and in the Hereafter. You will have in it anything you wish for; you will have anything you want.

[41:32] "(Such is your) ultimate abode, from a Forgiver, Most Merciful."

Today's Christianity Not Jesus' Religion*

[5:72] Pagans indeed are those who say that GOD is the Messiah, son of Mary. The Messiah himself said, "O Children of Israel, you shall worship GOD; my Lord and your Lord." Anyone who sets up any idol beside GOD, GOD has forbidden Paradise for him, and his destiny is Hell. The wicked have no helpers.

[5:73] Pagans indeed are those who say that GOD is a third of a trinity. There is no god except the one god. Unless they refrain from saying this, those who disbelieve among them will incur a painful retribution.

[5:74] Would they not repent to GOD, and ask His forgiveness? GOD is Forgiver, Most Merciful.

[5:75] The Messiah, son of Mary, is no more than a messenger like the messengers before him, and his mother was a saint. Both of them used to eat the food. Note how we explain the revelations for them, and note how they still deviate!

[5:76] Say, "Would you worship beside GOD powerless idols who can neither harm you, nor benefit you? GOD is Hearer, Omniscient."

_____________________________________________________________________
*5:72-76 In John 20:17, we see that Jesus taught that he was neither God, nor the son of God. Many theologians have concluded, after careful research, that today's Christianity is not the same Christianity taught by Jesus. Two outstanding books on this subject are "The Myth of God Incarnate" (The Westminster Press, Philadelphia, 1977) and The "Mythmaker" (Harper & Row, New York, 1986). On the front jacket of "The Mythmaker" we read the following statement:
" ...Hyam Maccoby presents new arguments to support the view that Paul, not Jesus, was the founder of Christianity....it was Paul alone who created a new religion through his vision of Jesus as a divine Saviour who died to save humanity."

Answer 4

Different administration of religion but to those that are serving the self-same god is salvation and eternal life given.

Answer 5

that's what God said, not me.
