The Confused Mind of the Ecumenical!
There's no doubt about it that the world of the ecumenical is very much confused. I've remembered being told a lot of times that I shouldn't touch other people's religions and tell them they are wrong and that Jesus Christ is the only Way to the Father. I've even had some assaults from some hyper liberal hippie who calls me a threat to the peace of humanity, others call me an Osama bin Laden wannabee for not tolerating religions that will definitely drag men into Hell for rejecting Christ, the list can go on and well go ahead. Jesus already declared in John 14:6- "Jesus saith unto him, I Am the Way, the Truth and the Life. No man cometh to the Father EXCEPT through Me." and even the Roman Catholic Bible says, "Jesus answered unto him, I Am the Way, the Truth and the Life. No one goes to the Father EXCEPT by Me." Same thought really and those liberals will shove the Bible to me saying I'm not being loving. They are in fact shallow thinkers. They have not really read most of the Bible, they love to misquote it to try and slam it into the face of any preacher. They say godliness is more important than religion but are they really godly or godless? True godliness or false godliness?
Studying some literature of Buddhism, Islam, Hinduism, Shintoism, etc. I would dare to say that each one has their own contrasting beliefs. It's pretty understood that Buddhists believe that Jesus is a good teacher, Muslims believe that too but they both deny the deity of Christ which Roman Catholicism affirms. Some religions believe in reincarnations, others don't. Atheists are angry with any notion of worshiping God, other religions adhere to worshiping their gods or at least believe God exists (but such faith will not save). They argue, "Well there's good in every religion except Satanism." Not all pagan religions worship every thing in nature, some just focus on their gods. What happens is that, trying to reconcile all their dogmas together is just a living contradiction. If Joseph Smith be the last messenger of God then he and only he is the last messenger, there is no lastest, that means if Felix Manalo is the last messenger of God then Joseph Smith cannot be the last messenger since messenger is singular not plural. Also talk about how Islam violently deals with homosexuals while some New Age religions tolerate homosexual as okay. Can these people make up their mind? As Jesus warned in Matthew 12:25-26, Mark 3:24 and Luke 11:17-18 that a kingdom divided against itself cannot stand. Even so come Lord Jesus!
If you say, "Well it doesn't matter what religion you practice as long as you are a good person." I dare you to take this test with Pastor Ray Comfort of Living Waters:
