False Beliefs, Cults And Non-Christian Religions
In the world under the influence of the master deceiver, Satan, false beliefs abound. Our vision is over clouded by preconceived ideas, misinformation and half truths. With our sinful nature we would often rather live in a fantasy world of false beliefs than to face reality and live in the truth. Jesus once had many disciples leave Him because of His "hard" sayings. He turned to His closest disciples - the 12 Disciples - and asked them if they were leaving, too. After this a lot of his disciples left. They no longer wanted to be associated with him. Then Jesus gave the Twelve their chance: "Do you also want to leave?" Peter replied, "Master, to whom would we go? You have the words of real life, eternal life. We've already committed ourselves, confident that you are the Holy One of God." [John 6:67-69, The Message] Peter was right on for everyone who is not content with an illusionary world. We need to be mature enough to face the truth even if we don't like it. We have to be willing to abandon even cherished false beliefs. Christianity, cults, and non-Christian religions all present ideas of what the fundamental Truth about living and dying is. Everyone and every society is religious on a foundational level [see Life Line and Biblical Law e-mail Courses]. Everyone has their point of view. The question is: who is right? Who has the Truth and who is presenting false information. There are some - who claim to be "open-minded" - who say we should accept all religions. This is pride in the guise of humility because they are really placing themselves as judges above all religions. However, Christianity is not compatible with any cult or non-Christian religion. It states plainly that Jesus Christ is the only way of salvation. All other ways are false and lead to death. Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." [John 14:6, NIV] The issue is very important. Other religions are leading people to eternal death [See report: What Is Death?]. Christians are not to be proud or treat people who believe differently with disrespect. All must be treated with honour, but we cannot compromise the Truth of God's Word either. It is literally a matter of life or death - eternal heaven or eternal hell. It is serious. The reports on this page will examine some of the false beliefs of non-Christian religions and some of the false beliefs within Christianity in the light of what the Bible teaches. Only the Bible is the infallible guide to Truth. Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light for my path. [Ps. 119:105].
