Hindu-Xian Discussion-17
by Suresh Vyas

P,

 

Your below lines have conflicting points:

<Your statement above indicates that that this Abdul, a Muslim, would go to heaven and I would state that you don't have to be a Christian to go to heaven, it could be a person related to any religion could go to heaven as long as they repented of their sin and believed that Jesus died for their sins on the cross. >

 

A person of any religion, many not know anything about Jesus or bible. So, the above says no haven for him/her.

 

If a person of or other religion believe in Jesus and his message, then he/she is a Christian. Without it he is not accepted as a Christian. Therefore, the above says that only the Christians go to haven. That monopoly does not exist in the spiritual world. No one has monopoly to haven.

 

May all learn to live-sin-free.

That is sure way to haven.

 

Jai Sri Krishna!

In a previous email you said, "...while the Vedics will say that Abdul Sattar Edhi, will go to heaven, a Christian will say he will go to hell simply because he is not a Christian."  I would disagree with the last part of that statement because a person does not go to heaven simply because he is a Christian but because he has repented of his sin and he has acknowledged the sacrifice of Jesus death on the cross as full payment for his sins.  A lot of people use the label "Christian" but have never repented of their sins.  Others say they are Christian because they were born in America or because their parents or spouse were Christians and in both of those instances they do not have any clear understanding of what it means to be a Christian.  Your statement above indicates that that this Abdul, a Muslim, would go to heaven and I would state that you don't have to be a Christian to go to heaven, it could be a person related to any religion could go to heaven as long as they repented of their sin and believed that Jesus died for their sins on the cross.  His death for our sins on the cross was authenticated by his resurrection from the dead.
