Bible Question: Buddha said that there was 186000 ways to enlightenmemt. Was he lieing? |
Bible Answer: The Bible says there is only one way to enlightenment - when the Lord Jesus enters your life. (John 1: 1-5. In the beginning was he Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things came into being through Him and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being. In Him was life, and the life was the Light of men. The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it." John 1: 9-12 "But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name, who were born, not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of God." Coming to Christ offers the true enlightenment by removing our sins and restoring us into fellowship with God the Father through His Son and via the Holy Spirit. All other religions only steer you to self discipline, self-sacrifice, spiritual exercises, and benevolent deeds which cannot regenerate the ever present sinful nature. Hugging your mother and co-worker will not wash away the dark thoughts and hidden deeds or even the little white lies. One cannot enter Heaven with sins. There are outward improvements but the dark cloud of sin which obscures a person's vision of the glorious God can only removed by accepting Jesus Christ's death and resurrection. Buddha actually died while still searching for enlightenment. When Jesus Christ died, He rose victorious from the grave three days later. He now sits in Heaven, soon to return. Christ is the good Shepherd who died for His sheep. By kneeling in acceptance of Christ's sacrificial death for you and His resurrection you too may have eternal life. True enlightenment is the recognition that one cannot on his/her own, escape from their sinful self. By crying out to Jesus for deliverance and forgiveness, by asking for the bood of Christ to wash away your sins, is enlightenment achieved. (John 5:24 "Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears my word, and believes Him who sent Me, has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life.") Please read the Gospel of John for a clearer understanding of who Jesus is - not a mere man but the Son of God. |
