Food for thought: Christianity is exclusive. What we mean by that is that there is no other religious or belief system that can get you in a right relationship with God and assure you of eternal salvation. Jesus is the only name given whereby we must be saved (Acts 4:12). Christianity is not one path among many. It is exclusive. This means all other systems are of the devil, they are demonic. All of them. Because none of them are correct. There are in some of those systems good moral values that are similar in some ways to Christian, biblical values. But being good, even by biblical standards, will not get you to heaven. We are justified by faith alone. But faith must have a correct object. Justifying faith is a faith that understands atonement, redemption, satisfaction, substitution and surrender. And Christianity is inclusive. What we mean by that is “whosoever will, may come” (Is. 55:1-3; John 4:14). The invitation is real and worthy to be believed. This does nothing to denigrate the sovereignty of God in salvation. Who are the “whosoever wills?” They are the “elect.” Who are the “elect?” That would be the “whosoever wills!” You can trust God with the outcome, amen?
