(then the question should be.. how do any of you monkeys make it to heaven if there isn't a true form of christianity, but I will go with whatever you come up with)
No, go ahead. Can I guess it has something to do with, "the scripture itself is the only true word, and its correct interpretation is the only path to salvation"? How far off am I?
That said, God does not 'grade/judge' in accordance to a set standard. (again parable of the talents) meaning so long as we are willing to grow in knowledge and in faith, there is no one valid true interpretation of the bible.
How can this be?
Because the same grace extended to us/belivers when we willfully sin, is magnified when we are doing our best to understand who God is and what he wants, and we give it our all to meet the need we see. Essentially if God forgives us when we willfuly do wrong He will forgive us all the more when we try and do right but get it wrong.
(That little tid bit is over looked by anyone claiming to have the one true religion.)
That is how I say ALL Jesus Christ centered Religions are equally valid (Because they are equally invalid) However IF the practitioners are putting in 110% of their being into their worship and their particular religion is where their efforts has taken them. Then they will find validation thought the atonement Christ offers all of us.
So how far off where you?
Pretty far. Even after i told you I am not arguing for one particular religion but all of them.
So Again, All Are invalid/critically theologically flawed in some form or fashion, but because the atonement that is offered when we willfully sin is all the more valid when we worship wrongly, our religious efforts are then through Christ found to be valid. That is if we are worshiping the God of the bible, and Christ as His son who washes away the sins of the world, with all of our heart, mind, spirit and strength.
