Christianity: A Religion Set Apart
August 26th 2010
We hear it incessantly. “Truth is relative.” “There is no one way to God.” “All will be redeemed if their good deeds outweigh their evil ones.” On and on we receive commentary from mortal men that is based upon their humble estimations about who an immortal God is and how he acts. And even among those who claim to seek their understanding about God from an outside source such as the Book of Mormon or the Quran, we start to see some striking similarities among them all.
This similarity is this, namely that there is good and there is evil, and men, in order live eternally, must do more good deeds than evil deeds. It is the burden of men, not to know God chiefly, but to appease him with works. It is pervasive among all religions, whether they be personally conjured or based upon antiquity, and they all share the exact same principle though expressed in different terminology and played with different sorts of rules. Well, that is all religions save one.
