A famous atheist B. Russell said, "I think all the great religions of the world are untrue and harmful... It is evident as a matter of logic that since they all disagree, not more than one can be true"
Many people seem to think that all religions are essentially the same and are about the same God. This is not so and is the conclusion arrived at as a result of ignorance rather than out of an informed decision.
Jesus claimed to be God and that if we did not come to him we would not come to God. He claimed to be the exclusive way to God. -John 8:58; 14:6
If Jesus was telling the truth then it is obvious that there is only one way to God. The alternative is that Jesus was a liar or perhaps mad. Neither of these two ideas really holds water.
Peter, one of Jesus Apostles said that Salvation was found in no one else and in no other name other than Jesus - Acts 4:12.
Paul, the writer of much of the New Testament, said that Jesus is the only mediator between God and man - 1 Tim 2:5
What is comes down to is this. There is only one person who can take your sin away and that is Jesus. No one else died to pay for your sin. No one else could have died to pay for your sin. No one else led a perfect life. No one else rose from the dead and is alive today as millions around the world will testify to. His grave is empty.
Christ died for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive by the Spirit. 1 Peter 3:18
