why can't we answer here?
I am a Christian and I have struggled years about the feeling that the whole world must be converted or they go to hell.
That just bothered me way too much. So, over a period of time I have come to the conclusion.........
My thought is this......it seems that every culture had a higher power, a world wide flood story, an afterlife. They might call their God a Tree or whatever. If they dont use the actual word God, does that make them heathen?
Then I came across the thought, that the New Testament where is it said that the only way to the Father is through the Son. Well, that make me think more. Then one day it came to me that the Father & the Son are one. Thus, if a person is connected to God no matter where or how they arn't lost souls.
I believe that the Creator isn't as complicated as religion has made it. Yet, HE is so far beyond our understanding that we just can't put Him in a box.
Considering what humans have done in the name of God, we need to be humbled that we have over the generations have created a religion that fits us, and have made choices to pilage and kill in the name of our religion.
The Higher Power is so awsome. We can't begin to know how he will judge or not judge people.
Why would we think that being American Or civilazed-makes us God's quientessial people.
Yes, I believe that there are many roads on the way to be connected to the Almighty Creator.

It is not right to say other people's beliefs are, as you put it, completely wrong. I myself am not Christian, but I will not go and tell Christians they are wrong. Just because they don't have proof doesn't mean they are wrong. I have never seen proof of actually any religion at all, so whatever your religion is you know what it isn't proved either.
But I do have to say this to people who do say the Bible is proof. Yes I understand your faith and all thats your choice, but if you haven't noticed the bible was technically written by man and the "prophets" were men and well we all know men aren't the most truthful beings. I know some might get mad at me for typing that last bit, but it is my opinion and what not. Where you lie your faith is your own decision and you lie it with the words of the bible. All the power to you.
Well I guess that is all I will type. I got better things to do then tell off some Christian-basher.

Did you wake up one day and decide to chang every Christian's belief? I got plenty of proof....its called the BIBLE read it, memorize it, sniff it, and indulge in it ....
Who said we had to believe you? I suggest that you get a life and think before you start typing and presenting pointless arguments...Christ is the only way...
And thats my belief, if you want to go on and believe something else..be my guest, I'll see you on Judgement Day

Take a pill. I do believe that Jesus Christ is the way. One more thing, why is this in the television category? I don't have time to convince you. You wouldn't understand it anyway!

You sound like you have it already "figured out", so I won't waste my breath. But,
I will say this, Christ is the only way. I know this with my whole heart and soul.

His bones are not here. That's the proof, that's the power. Profits and other so called "gods" their bones are still here. I could go on but that would be a waste of time and that would be COMPLETELY WRONG. I will pray for you.

The real proof is in the Bible in the New Testament as Jesus said He is the way, the truth, and the life and no one comes to Father which is God expect through Him. That is where you will find the real proof and find out that Christians aren't wrong but they are right since the real proof is in God's word which is in the Bible.

as Easter nears I see so many trying the christian faith. I am only answering this for other Christians to read. Fellow Christians don't let questions like this make you question your faith in God. We don't have to see to believe we just simply KNOW.
