Question.474 - Topic 6 DQ Jesus made many absolute statements such as the following: John 14:6: "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me" (NIV). Matthew 7:13-14: "Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it." Interacting with these statements and based on Chapter 8 of The Beginning of Wisdom and the topic overview, how would you answer someone who is concerned that Christianity portrays that Jesus is the only way to salvation?
Answer Below:
Hello Class! ?If I would answer someone?who is concerned that Christianity portrays?that Jesus is the only way to salvation, I would definitely respect their belief and I am no one to say change their beliefs. I believe in higher energy which others would call as God and if I would have been completely believed in religious things then I would agree with the person that Jesus is the only way to salvation. I mean if there is God and I am believing it, I would keep all hope and faith in him and face the circumstances believing that God is with me and all that is his plan. As we studied in the previous weeks, it is understood that according to Christianity no good deeds will impress God because he already loves us. When someone has faith in him and loves him, that belief itself makes us to walk on the moral path and helps to fulfill the purpose decided by God for us. When the purpose and responsibility are fulfilled by us which is all possible by believing in Jesus. This is the way to achieve salvation. According to John 14:6, Jesus is the son of God or a God in human form with extreme power than us, he is the one who makes judgements as the creator of this universe.More Articles From Philosophy
