To what degree you respect or acknowledge other Faiths?

[Mortimer]

First: I hold Orthodox Christian Traditions, i believe in a Supernatural Entity which is called God who created the Universe and everything on it. I believe in Jesus Teachings. I believe a little bit in Karma also though.

Second i respect and acknowledge all positive religions to a very great degree, including that i would pray with them in their churches/mosques/temples and acknowledge that they also hold the truth in the biger part of the picture that God also revealed themselfes to them.

Poll follows.

As a Christian you can tolerate religions, but it´s obvious that you can´t see God´s truth in them, because Jesus said that he and faith in the gospel are the only way to God.

That would be a right wing fundamentalist christian. I interpret it that Jesus meant whoever follows his path, the path of right,good and love will be in heaven. You certainly refer to "Nobody comes to the father except through me"

I don't think any religion holds any truth.

I think most Christians today see it that way


then you have fundamentalists but they are few everywhere

Yes, that´s what I am referring, too. Well, read Romans 3,21-26. Paul states that the sacrifice of Jesus is only working for you, when you believe in his blood, that implies that you believe in the gospel. You find a similar statement in Romans 10, 9: You have to believe not only in Jesus´ death, but also in his resurection. I don´t see how this is fundamentalist. This is simply the gospel: Everyone who believes in the person of Jesus shall be saved. And this obviously includes believing in his sacrifice and resurection, because otherwise you consider him a liar and thus don´t believe in him.

Also, as everyone is considered a sinner against God in the bible (and thus has infinitely great sin and deserves eternal punishment) you simply need the sacrifice of Jesus, because no just judge can simply forgive eternally great sin without being evil.
