Basic Apologetics: “I think all paths lead to God.” � ~ BLOGGER.GUNNY.G.1984 ~ (BLOG & EMAIL)

Basic Apologetics: “I think all paths lead to God.” � ~ BLOGGER.GUNNY.G.1984 ~ (BLOG & EMAIL): "It is true that all religious paths, save one, lead to the same place, but that place isn’t God. All religions, save one, hold that you must work your way to God, whether by your creeds, your conduct, or your worship. This is essentially the religion of the Law, something that all religions, save one, have in common.

The statement presupposes that we are on a search for God, much like a hiking trip through the mountains, and whether we take the high road or the low, we will all ultimately wind up in the same place. Buddhism essentially works this way, and even a surprising number of Christians have been caught up into believing this notion that all paths lead to God as long as you sincerely follow your chosen path."
