Do all Religions Teach the Same Thing?

- Image via Wikipedia
Most religions are good… They all teach similar things. They all have similar beliefs with Christianity. Incarnation and life after death. Good stuff! Don’t they all pursue moral standards and guides to walk with a Higher Power?
They certainly don’t lead people to do the horrible things that we humans tend to want to do…You know, our backstabbing gossiping lying cheating murderous ways. I have never really studied Witchcraft or darker religions like Satanism but I suspect even they don’t condone such wicked things that us human’s get into…
“Tho shall become an outlaw” Is that a religious doctrine?
So what is different about Christianity anyways? Why not just do one that works for you? The USA has freedom of religion over here… Ya dig?
The one main difference I can see is grace… Unmerited favor. This Christian doctrine is in conflict with human desires to earn our way to God.
- The Buddhist Eight Fold Path
- The Hindu Doctrine of Karma
- The Jewish Covenant
- The Muslim Code of Law
In the Christian religion God already did all the work for us. Behavior has nothing to do with it. And when we believe it -He changes us. And we accept his help because we are thankful.
Oh there are tons of ways to look at religion and Christianity. But grace resounds throughout.
For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; Eph:2 8
