I hear so many professing Christians(protestants) saying well, I know some Muslims, or I know an orthodox Jew, and they’re good people. God will have mercy on them surely even though they deny Christ.
How is it that my Roman Catholic friends and family fight with me to submit to Roman authority when their leader (whom they call holy father) says atheists can go to heaven apart from knowing Christ? Or the Roman Catholic bishop that told Ben Shapiro that he can achieve salvation through good works and the keeping of the law?
To ask me to believe that there’s other ways to heaven is asking me to call Jesus Christ a liar. I wont do that and I have lost friends and family over this. I’m mostly a rambling fool that talks way too much.. Listen to Christ’s response for someone making the very same type of arguments.
6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.
The Father Revealed
7 “If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also; and from now on you know Him and have seen Him.”
8 Philip said to Him, “Lord, show us the Father, and it is sufficient for us.”
9 Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you so long, and yet you have not known Me, Philip? He who has seen Me has seen the Father; so how can you say, ‘Show us the Father’?
