Religion is exclusive, but God is not. He said in II Peter 3:9 “I am not willing that any should perish, bu that all come to repentance.” Christianity is the only religion that has a martyr, Jesus Christ. Christianity is a relationship with God. Your creed says that Jesus was a good man. He is not in the same class as Buddha and Mohammed because He was martyred, which they were not. Why is it okay for the Muslims, Buddhists, Hindus, etc. to practice their religions in public, but the ACLU and others reject public prayer at football games, graduations? Why was Bible reading taken out of the schools? Why do you want to take “Under God” out of the pledge? Why is Christianity the point of contention in American society and not another religion? I know why. It’s because you’re afraid of it and if you can beat it, you can have a clean conscience. You can spend your life trying to expunge Christianity and its influence, but you and your atheistic posterity will never beat it. God loves you, even though you reject Him and Jesus and you will never, ever in a million years be able to discount that fact. Read the chapter of John in the Bible and after that see if you still grasp at this atheism. The only person that will save this world from herself is Jesus. It was love that kept Him nailed to that cross. God’s love for us sent Him down from Heaven to die on it for us–every person on the planet.

Several thousand years has passed since God the Father choose to reveal himself to mankind in a physical manifestation, aside from his spiritual presence, in the form of his son Jesus Christ.
As was then and is now, mankind still chooses to reject Christ, and the path to heaven and the forgiveness of sins that he spoke of, which was recorded in his written word, the Holy Scriptures.
The religious leaders of his day not only observed his physical presence, but his ability to heal the sick and raise the dead and in all of this, they still rejected the fact that he was the physical manifestation of his heavenly Father.
They too chose to worship other gods in the form of graven images, just as mankind chooses to do today, to obtain heaven by a works religion.
I must say, for mankind to think that he can gain access to heaven any other way than God has set forth, is quite arrogant.
I have always been curious, as to why one that would choose to deny God and his Word, would even want to gain access to Heaven, in that Heaven is God’s heavenly abode. Rejecting and ignoring him now, and yet thinking that they might want to spend eternity in his presence. If they are not comfortable around him now, what makes them think that they will ever be comfortable around him?
On the other hand, being that they are serving Lucifer in this present world, I would think that they would want to serve him and spend eternity in his presence,in the lake of fire.
