Subject: One God, many faiths? |
Bible Note: Curt: Thank you for replying. I know what you mean. I do understand your point about the Muslims. Maybe the Muslim would love "my answer", but my answer, as it turns out, is "God's Word." I would merely point out that we Christians also believe there is only one God. That's all I've ever believed: "Hear, O Israel! The LORD is our God, the LORD is one!" Deut. 6:4 NASB The passage I quoted from Ephesians says, "One Lord, one faith." Not one Lord, 3 faiths or two faiths or a dozen -- ONE faith! And I'm sure we would agree together that regardless of how the Muslims or anyone else misquotes or misinterprets the verse, the Scripture is still true. Let God be true and every man a liar. As for the concept of the Trinity, some alleged Christians have a tough time with that one. I refer to those who believe in One God-One Person, as opposed to One God-Three Persons. Curt, I wish to thank you for all your good posts. Keep up the good work. Grace to you, kalos |
