How is Christianity’s message of salvation different from other religions?

Christianity is a religion of grace, and God reveals His grace through His Word. From an online youth conference hosted by Reformation Bible College, Stephen Nichols identifies what sets the Christian faith apart from all other religious ideas.

“Convictions Of A Bible Church, ” from Redeemer church, says, in number two of nine things, “The Bible Determines Everything.” I’m convinced that’s 100% true. That’s why I read, study, and meditate on the Word daily!!!

[DarkstarArchangel]

The concept of sin and grace is what sets it apart from others, Human Beings are the most evil creatures on Earth and that is the truth.

[Emilysafe]

Please it would be very helpful if in the description there was a link to the full video thank you so much 💙

[jenna]

You only need "grace" when you're convinced that you were born bad because of something someone else did, but that you will be personally held responsible for it.

[tammmy]

Amen amen amen 🙏🏼 Thabk you for this video

[opassl]

Hi, could it be possible to download this video and publish it with french subtitles ?

[ricksaunders]

Christianity doesn't require you to do deeds
Romans 3:10-18
Your deeds are worthless
Salvation is a free gift from JESUS
all others require you to do good
What is good ?
JAMES 4:17 Just do right
But how difficult is that ?

[gojohnnygo]

Are the preachers feeding the flock correctly? There are black Jesus, white Jesus, baby Jesus, Jesus with mother of god, with out mother of god, the list goes on.

[nothingbutthetruth]

There's no question that this difference in Christianity is extremely appealing. Who would not want to get something on a silver platter without any need to do anything? The problem is first of all it's nonsensical. If we're simply going to get grace by doing nothing to earn this grace, what is the point of being here? Exactly why are we in this world? What are we to achieve here? But even more problematic is the fact that this doctrine is not at all shared by the original bible. The ot says all over the place how our actions are what determines how we fair in this world. We are told countless times that we need to change our ways and repent. If it is like christianity teaches that we are just given grace, why would we need to do anything? Who cares how we act? It supposedly has nothing to do with what we do as opposed to what God does. So although it sounds nice not to have to do anything, this can't be.

[Antonio.R.O.C.]

Jesus never once throughout the Bible preached that you are:

1. Saved by Grace alone

2. Save by Faith alone

3. Save by Grace through Faith alone

4. Saved by your Deeds alone

5. Once Saved, Always Saved

6. Salvation is Guaranteed

Salvation is a life long process which is never guaranteed, nor by grace, by faith or by deeds alone. Jesus’ own words confirm this and anyone who preaches scripture that contradicts Jesus’ own words is misinterpreting it or intentionally straying you away from the true faith.

Is it hard to enter God’s Kingdom? Yes!

“This amazed them. But Jesus said again, “Dear children, it is very hard to enter the Kingdom of God.” Mark 10:24

Conditions by which salvation can be achieved directly from Jesus.

1. “Jesus told him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me.” John‬ ‭14:6‬ ‭

2. “Jesus replied, “I assure you, no one can enter the Kingdom of God without being born of water and the Spirit. Humans can reproduce only human life, but the Holy Spirit gives birth to spiritual life. So don’t be surprised when I say, ‘You must be born again.” John 3:5-7

3. “Jesus called a little child to him and put the child among them. Then he said, “I tell you the truth, unless you turn from your sins and become like little children, you will never get into the Kingdom of Heaven.” Matthew 18:2-3

4. “No, and I tell you again that unless you repent, you will perish, too.” Luke 13:

5. “Everyone who acknowledges me publicly here on earth, I will also acknowledge before my Father in heaven. But everyone who denies me here on earth, I will also deny before my Father in heaven.”Matthew‬ ‭10:32-33

6. “So I tell you, every sin and blasphemy can be forgiven—except blasphemy against the Holy Spirit, which will never be forgiven.” Matthew‬ ‭12:31‬

7. “But I warn you—unless your righteousness is better than the righteousness of the teachers of religious law and the Pharisees, you will never enter the Kingdom of Heaven!” Matthew 5:20

8. “But Jesus told him, “Anyone who puts a hand to the plow and then looks back is not fit for the Kingdom of God.” Luke‬ ‭9:62‬ ‭

9. “Then Jesus said to his disciples, “I tell you the truth, it is very hard for a rich person to enter the Kingdom of Heaven. I’ll say it again—it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the Kingdom of God!” Matthew‬ ‭19:23-24‬ ‭

10. “So every tree that does not produce good fruit is chopped down and thrown into the fire. Yes, just as you can identify a tree by its fruit, so you can identify people by their actions.” Matthew 7:19-20

11. “But I say, if you are even angry with someone, you are subject to judgment! If you call someone an idiot, you are in danger of being brought before the court. And if you curse someone, you are in danger of the fires of hell.”Matthew‬ ‭5:22‬

12. “If you forgive those who sin against you, your heavenly Father will forgive you. But if you refuse to forgive others, your Father will not forgive your sins.” Matthew‬ ‭6:14-15‬

13. “If you love your father or mother more than you love me, you are not worthy of being mine; or if you love your son or daughter more than me, you are not worthy of being mine. If you refuse to take up your cross and follow me, you are not worthy of being mine. If you cling to your life, you will lose it; but if you give up your life for me, you will find it.” Matthew‬ ‭10:37-39‬

14. “And I tell you this, you must give an account on judgment day for every idle word you speak. The words you say will either acquit you or condemn you.” Matthew‬ ‭12:36-37‬

15. “But if you cause one of these little ones who trusts in me to fall into sin, it would be better for you to have a large millstone tied around your neck and be drowned in the depths of the sea.” Matthew‬ ‭18:6‬

16. “So Jesus said again, “I tell you the truth, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you cannot have eternal life within you. But anyone who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise that person at the last day.” John‬ ‭6:53-54‬ ‭

Will many fail to enter God’s Kingdom? Yes! Even those who claimed to be Christians & followers of Jesus will fail because they refused to obey his laws & conditions by which salvation would be obtained!

“Someone asked him, “Lord, will only a few be saved?” He replied, “Work hard to enter the narrow door to God’s Kingdom, for many will try to enter but will fail.” Luke 13:23-24

“You can enter God’s Kingdom only through the narrow gate. The highway to hell is broad, and its gate is wide for the many who choose that way. But the gateway to life is very narrow and the road is difficult, and only a few ever find it.” Matthew‬ ‭7:13-14‬

“Not everyone who calls out to me, ‘Lord! Lord!’ will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Only those who actually do the will of my Father in heaven will enter. On judgment day many will say to me, ‘Lord! Lord! We prophesied in your name and cast out demons in your name and performed many miracles in your name.’ But I will reply, ‘I never knew you. Get away from me, you who break God’s laws.” Matthew 7:21-23

“Just as the weeds are sorted out and burned in the fire, so it will be at the end of the world. The Son of Man will send his angels, and they will remove from his Kingdom everything that causes sin and all who do evil. And the angels will throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Then the righteous will shine like the sun in their Father’s Kingdom. Anyone with ears to hear should listen and understand!” Matthew‬ ‭13:40-43‬

How do we determine if scripture is being misinterpreted? By simply going back to what Jesus said and letting his words show us the truth. Anyone who continues to preach scripture that contradicts his words should be avoided and exposed as wolfs.

“Jesus said to the people who believed in him, “You are truly my disciples if you remain faithful to my teachings. And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” John 8:31-32

Don’t forget, the Devil was an angel and even quoted scripture when he tempted Jesus but it was Jesus’ full understanding of scripture that led him to quote scripture back to the devil in order to reveal God’s truth. This is why scripture (God’s Words) is also important on our journey.

“But Jesus told him, “No! The Scriptures say, ‘People do not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.” Matthew‬ ‭4:4‬

“Get out of here, Satan, ” Jesus told him. “For the Scriptures say, ‘You must worship the Lord your God and serve only him.” Matthew‬ ‭4:10‬

“Beware of false prophets who come disguised as harmless sheep but are really vicious wolves.” Matthew‬ ‭7:15‬

Did people misinterpret scripture in the past? Yes! Even Jesus had to correct them.

“Jesus replied, “Your mistake is that you don’t know the Scriptures, and you don’t know the power of God.” Matthew 22:29

“Then he added, “Now go and learn the meaning of this Scripture: ‘I want you to show mercy, not offer sacrifices.’ For I have come to call not those who think they are righteous, but those who know they are sinners.” Matthew‬ ‭9:13‬

Our sin is that we slowly begin to believe the words of others and even the apostles own words over Jesus as they’re distorted to justify a different path to salvation. We stubbornly cling to their words instead of his.

“The world’s sin is that it refuses to believe in me.” John 16:9

[smeatonlighthouse]

There is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, who gave Himself a ransom for all. The gospel message is unto all but only upon all who believe. It is about God the Son coming into human form from God to earth, to die, so that we might go as adopted sons of God from earth to Heaven. No other religion offers anything like that.

[ksrinivas]

If religion says your are begger then I don't want that religion or god

[terminat]

God elected certain ones to salvation based on His sovereign choice, not based on the person's will or work in any way (Romans 9:15-16).

This is how the true Gospel separates itself from the false religions and gospels (including many in Christianity). God has to do everything, and He only planned to for a remnant (the elect).

[eddierosario]

Many major religions gather and study scripture, so ....

[ChandraAnandInChrist]

Romans 3:23, 24, 25, 26, 27
for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.God presented him as a sacrifice of atonement, through faith in his blood. He did this to demonstrate his justice, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished--he did it to demonstrate his justice at the present time, so as to be just and the one who justifies those who have faith in Jesus.Where, then, is boasting? It is excluded. On what principle? On that of observing the law? No, but on that of faith.

[Syed_]

Islam The Beautiful Religion

( Be Just )

Quran 5:8
'' O you who believe! stand out firmly for God, as witnesses to fair dealing, and let not the > HATRED OF OTHERS TO YOU < make you swerve to wrong and depart from justice. Be just: that is next to piety: and fear God. For God is well-acquainted with all that you do. ''

Quran 4:58
'' Indeed, God commands you to render trusts to whom they are due and when you judge between people to judge with justice. Excellent is that which God instructs you. Indeed, God is ever Hearing and Seeing.''

( God's The Rules Of War )

Quran 2:190
'' Fight in the way of God > THOSE WHO FIGHT YOU < but do not transgress. Indeed. God does not like transgressors. ''

Quran 2 :193

'' And fight them on until there is no more oppression, and there prevail justice and faith in God; but if they cease, Let there be no hostility except to those who practice oppression. ''

Quran 4:90
if they withdraw from you and cease their hostility and offer you peace, in that case Allah has not granted you permission to fight against them.''

Quran 8:61
''And if they seek peace, then you also seek it, and put your trust in God. He is the Hearer, the Knowledgeable.''

( Stand Up For Justice )

Quran 4 :135
'' Ye who believe! stand out firmly for justice, as witnesses to God, even as against > YOURSELVES < or your parents, or your kin, and whether it be (against) rich or poor: for God can best protect both. Follow not the lusts (of your hearts), lest ye swerve, and if ye distort (justice) or decline to do justice, verily God is well-acquainted with all that ye do.''

( Who Are The Good Human Beings? )

Quran 2.177
'' Righteousness is "NOT" that you turn your faces ( in worship ) toward the east or the west but [true] righteousness is [in] one who believes in God, the Last Day, the angels, the Book, and the prophets and gives wealth, > IN SPITE OF LOVE FOR IT, < to relatives, orphans, the needy, the traveler, those who ask [for help], and for > freeing slaves < [and who] establishes prayer and gives charity; [those who] fulfill their promise when they promise; and [those who] are patient in poverty and hardship and during battle. Those are the ones who have been true, and it is those who are the righteous. ''

( Freedom To Believe And To Reject )

Quran 2:256
'' Let there be no compulsion in religion. Truth stands out clear from error ''

Quran 10:99
'' And had your Lord willed, those on earth would have believed > all of them entirely < Then would you compel the people in order that they become believers? ''

( Tolerance For Other Religions )

Quran 109: 1- 6

Say, "O disbelievers,

I do not worship what you worship.

Nor are you worshipers of what I worship.

Nor will I be a worshiper of what you worship.

Nor will you be worshipers of what I worship.

For you is your religion, and for me is my religion."

( Protection for Idol Worshiper )

Quran 9:6
"And if any one of the polytheists seeks your protection, then grant him protection so that he may hear the words of Allah. Then deliver him to his place of safety. That is because they are people who do not know. "

Quran16:125
“Call people to the way of your Lord with wisdom and good teaching, and argue with them in the most courteous way”

Quran7:199 “Be tolerant....”

( Friendship With Non Muslims )

Quran 60:8
'' God does not forbid you from those who do not fight you because of religion and do not expel you from your homes - from being righteous toward them and acting justly toward them. Indeed, God loves those who act justly. ''

( Do Christians And Jews and "OTHER" non-Muslims go to Heaven? )

Quran 2:62
'' Those who believe (in the Qur'an), and those who follow the Jewish (scriptures), and the Christians and the Sabians, -> ANY <- who believe in God and the Last Day, and work righteousness, shall have their reward with their Lord; on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve. '' ---> { On Judgement Day }

( According to the Quran Christians and Jews worship TRUE God )

(Quran 3:113-114)
'' Not all of them are alike: Of the People of the Book ( Christians and Jews ) are a portion that stand (For the right): They rehearse the Signs of God all night long, and they prostrate themselves in adoration. They believe in God and the Last Day; they enjoin what is right, and forbid what is wrong; and they hasten (in emulation) in (all) good works: They are in the ranks of the righteous.''

Note: According to the Quran that Jesus is not God nevertheless Christians still worship one '' TRUE '' God.

( > Allah < Is The Protector Of Monasteries, Churches, Synagogues And The Mosques )

Quran 22:40
[They are] those who have been evicted from their homes without right - only because they say, "Our Lord is Allah ." And were it not that Allah checks the people, some by means of others, there would have been demolished monasteries, churches, synagogues, and mosques in which the name of Allah is much mentioned. And Allah will surely support those who support Him. Indeed, Allah is Powerful and Exalted in Might.

( Why Are There So Many Different Religions In The World ? )

Quran 5 48
If God wanted He could have made all of you a > single nation < But He willed otherwise in order to test you in what He has given you;(scriptures) therefore try to excel one another in good deeds. Ultimately you all shall return to God; then He will show you the truth of those matters in which you > DISPUTE <.''

NOTE:
Quran 3:85
''If anyone desires a religion other than Islam ( > submission < to God), never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter He will be in the ranks of those who have lost (Salvation)''

My explanation of above verse

Islam mean > submission < to God

( The above verse saying is that God will not accept a religion from the > MUSLIM < and the Non-Muslims but total > submission < to God.)

Question: How Can Muslim And the > Non-Muslim < > submit < to the God?

Answer: Be kind to other human beings and Do not lie, Do not steal, Do not cheat, Do not hurt others, Do not be prideful and Do the charity work.

( God Allow Muslims To Marry And Eat Food From the Christian And Jew And Vice Versa )

Quran 5;5
''This day [all] good foods have been made lawful, and the food of those who were given the Scripture ( Christian and Jew) is lawful for you and your food is lawful for them. And [lawful in marriage are] chaste women from among the believers and chaste women from among those who were given the Scripture ( Christian and Jew) before you, when you have given them their due compensation, desiring chastity, not unlawful sexual intercourse or taking [secret] lovers. And whoever denies the faith - his work has become worthless, and he, in the Hereafter, will be among the losers.''

( Kindness Toward Atheists / > APOSTATE < )

Quran 60:8
'' As for such [ of the unbelievers ( atheist) ] as do not fight against you on account of [your] faith, and neither drive you forth from your homelands, > Allah < does not forbid you to show them > kindness < and to behave towards them with full equity: for, verily, Allah loves those who act equitably. ''

( All The Terrorists / Killers Will Enter Hell Fire )

Quran 5:32
kills a soul unless for a soul or for corruption [done] in the land - it is as if he had slain mankind

( Turned Your Enemies Into Your Awesome Friends )

Quran 41:34
"The good deed and the evil deed are not alike. Repel the evil deed with one which is better, then lo! he, between whom and thee there was enmity (will become) as though he was a bosom friend."

( The Husband and The Wife Are > Protecting Friends < One Of Another )

Quran 9:71
''And the believers, men and women, are > Protecting Friends < one of another; they enjoin the right and forbid the wrong, and they establish worship and they pay the poor-due, and they obey God and His messenger. As for these, God will have mercy on them. Lo! God is Mighty, Wise.''

Quran16:97
“To whoever, male or female, does good deeds and has faith, We shall give a good life and reward them according to the best of their actions.

Quran 30:21
“And of His signs is that He created for you from yourselves mates that you may find tranquility in them; and He placed between you > affection and mercy <…”--> { Love }

The Prophet Muhammad said, “The best among you is the best to his wife”

( Human Are One Big family )

Quran 49:13
" O mankind! We created you from a single (pair) of a male and a female, and made you into nations and tribes, that ye may know each other (not that ye may despise (each other). Verily the most honored of you in the sight of God is (he who is) the most righteous of you. And God has full knowledge and is well acquainted (with all things)."

( All The Racist People Will Enter Hellfire )

Quran 30:22
"And of His signs is the creation of the heavens and the earth and the diversity of your languages and your colors. Indeed in that are signs for those of knowledge."

My conclusion:

The > BASIC < message of God to the human is that '' YOU '' believe in God and be kind to other human beings / > animals < and in the > RETURNED < God will > REWARD < you with a new life in Paradise.

* The Quran ONLY guides you how to become a good human being "Nothing Else".

* You are a good human being or a bad human being that is YOUR choice.

* No one can force you to become a good human being.

* You MUST work HARD to become a good human being.

* Why should ''YOU'' do good deeds and avoid bad deeds?

* Do Good - it's for You. Do Bad - It's against you.

* '' YOUR'' life is a TEST from God that you will choose to do either Good or Bad.

* Find the excuse to help others and forgive others NOT the other way around.

* '' YOUR '' final destination is either Hell or Heaven.

* So work HARD toward choice of YOUR destination.

Quran 17:7
'' If you do good, you will do so for your own good. And if you do evil, it will be to your own loss.''/

[ramwolf]

Grace but follow what the bible says..l😂😂😂

[ksrinivas]

So basically in Christianity all are begger 😁😁
