The song is "A Thousand Gods, performed by Indi Music Artist,, Marc Andre.......More of his music can be listened to at CHRISTIAN MP FREE ONE GOD My friends, there is only one God........ He is the God of the Bible......... We now have laws that take the God of the Bible out of the public discourse. They have taken God out of our schools, removed Him from public buildings, are trying to take His name out of the Pledge, working on removing Him from our money, and will continue to do everything they can to eliminate the God of the Bible entirely, which is exactly why we our nation is in the condition we are.... Now more than ever, those of us who know Jesus Christ, the God of the Bible, must do everything we can to insure that HIS name is clearly identified and boldly proclaimed to this lost world since He is the ONLY hope that ANY of us have............. In this lost and hurting world there are many false gods and so called paths to Heaven, but there is only one true God. That is the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob! The God who created the heavens and the earth. There is only ONE GOD that hears and answers our prayers, and that is the God who Created the heavens and earth, the God who Created you and me, the God of the Bible.....1 Timothy 2:5...For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;......Jesus said: "I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father but by me." (John 14:6)....."For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;" (Romans 3:23)....."For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." (John 3:16) target=_blank>

Buddha, by the way, did not presume to be God. He was a man. I found it curious that you included a photo of a statue of Buddha in your video. Also the World Trade Center...
It is my assertion that it does not really matter what a person believes so long as he/she lives the noblest life possible.
Titus 3:4-7 But when the kindness of God our Savior and His love for mankind appeared, He saved us, not on the basis of deeds which we have done in righteousness, but according to His mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewing by the Holy Spirit, whom He poured out upon us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior, so that being justified by His grace we would be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
Even a non-Christian can be a good-deed-doer. When our children clean their rooms, are they then given the right to be our children? We cannot earn by good deeds what we have already been freely given.
I do them to help mankind.
It sure speaks Volumns.
If, when I go to heaven and I am confronted with my sins, I will find out the truth then.
Until that time, I can only go on my own instints. That as long as you love yourselve and do good works and repent, you will be saved.
scott do you really think your god or the muslim god or the buddhist god or the wiccan gods and goddess would condone your narrow minded self righteous POV?
The Koran not only recognizes Jesus but it dedicates a whole chapter to the Mary the mother of Jesus.
Christians like Sandy, Terry, and others here on Gather only want to share their love of Christ with you in His truth, peace, love, hope, joy and the heart’s desire for all things good and hoped for enlightenment - could anyone want for anything less? And if anyone thinks they can TRULY find truth, peace, love, hope, joy, and the heart’s desire for all things good ELSEWHERE, then go for it with all your worldly extrapolations of human perceptions in what you think is in your interests. Doing good things for others can make you feel better about yourself, but Christians know that to be a Christian we must believe in Christ Jesus and lead by example, otherwise one cannot support the other in truth of the whole and complete living God. One must believe in Christ to fully understand and be one in Him with His message. Jesus saith unto him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” Among true Christians this is far from an opinion – it is fact.
Imagine for a moment if we didn’t have the God of the Bible and His word for us to live by. Could we possibly know the difference of good and evil, right and wrong, His Light in contrast to darkness? What would be our guide? “Truth would have little or no meaning if it were smothered in a Godless void of mediocrity. In such a scenario truth would be but a meaningless and pointless concept. Darkness basks in the shadowy recesses of those gray areas where false witnesses prevail.”
The Bible of God is truth in all its perfection. “Truth is not a complicated concept to understand when one lives their life as an uncompromising Christian of indefatigable righteousness with conviction and clarity of the facts.”
For non-Christians, believe and do you want in this finite gift of life in mere existence.
For true Christians, there’s nothing to debate but everything to offer now and forever. It is written for all to see in His complete truth for us to understand, appreciate, and cherish.
1 Timothy 2:5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;
John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
Acts 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
Hopefully one day soon Sunaura, you will actually see and absorb God's Truth instead of what you are now seeing and/or getting from these and other's messages. And yes friend, "you MUST be born again." Jesus said that.
Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born? Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again." —John 3:1-7
The Bible teaches that man is created in the image of God. God manifests Himself to mankind in the Persons of God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. Likewise, mankind is composed of a body, soul, and spirit. Our body is the "tent" you could say of the soul and spirit (the body is a temporary dwelling place). Our soul is composed of the heart (to feel), the mind (to think), and the will (to decide). Our spirit is dead in sin when we are born; that is, we are born void of God. No person is ever born with God. The only exception is the Lord Jesus Christ Who came as God in the flesh (1st Timothy 3:16). Our spirit is dead in trespasses and sin the Bible says...
"And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins; Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:" —Ephesians 2:1,2
The unsaved person cannot understand God so what you are stating is understandable...
"But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned."
—1st Corinthians 2:14
To be “spiritually” born means that God's Holy Spirit “quickens” (or makes alive) our dead spirit. When a sinner believes on the Lord Jesus as the Christ, trusting Him alone to forgive all sins—then God the Father and God the Son come into one's heart in the form of God the Holy Spirit (John 14:23). The “Holy Spirit” is “God within us.”
“Eskimo: “If I did not know about God and sin, would I go to hell”
“Priest: “No, not if you did not know.”
Eskimo: “Then why did you tell me?”

“Of all religions, Christianity is without a doubt the one that should inspire tolerance most, although, up to now, the Christians have been the most intolerant of all men”
Voltaire
“Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by the rulers as useful.”
Seneca
“More people have been slaughtered in the name of religion than for any other single reason. That, my friends, that is true perversion.”
Harvey Milk
“All religions are founded on the fear of the of the many and the cleverness of the few.”
Stendhal
“I am against religion because it teaches us to be satisfied with not understanding the world.”
Richard Dawkins
Thank-You both for such a Wonderful Post..
That's the basis of our Faith and our lives. Basing our positions on
the teachings of God. The fact being that we strive to keep His...
Commandments..doing what is best each day. Keeping God always
in our lives, constantly praying each day. Following in the footsteps
of our Lord Jesus the Christ.

2)Ask what their stand is on the infallibility of the Bible? Do they believe that the Bible is the only true Word of God, or have they come up with more sources? Do they believe the Word of God is a living book, relevant to today and fully inspired by God? Second Timothy 3:16 states, "All scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness."
3) And most importantly, how do they teach that one becomes saved? Is there some method of works or tradition attached to salvation, or is salvation received ONLY through faith in the saving power of the blood of Jesus? Ephesians 2:8-9: "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith-and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God-not by works, so that no one can boast."
A)Do they believe that Jesus was a good man, or that He is the Son of God.
B)Do they place divine authority on sources other than the Bible.
C)Do they believe that they acquire eternal salvation through good works?
A religion does not have to meet all of the above criteria to be considered a cult; just one will define it. So many denominations today, both old and new, are deceiving people by not sticking to and teaching the Biblical truth. But God never makes exceptions to His Word. Never! If it's not in the Bible, it's error and/or it's false.... A teaching that has and will continue to deceive and eventually cause the eternal destruction of the souls of so many many good people.......
