Do all Religions Lead to God?

Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved (Acts 4:12)

Liberal theologians have deceived millions of people into believing that Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism, and other religions are all roads leading to the one true God. This strange desire for an ecumenical unity among the various religions is said to promote “compassion”. However, there is nothing compassionate about giving false information that could lead to eternal damnation.

First thing we must understand is that God does not save anyone based on sincerity or a system of works. This may sound harsh but we must see this from God’s perspective. Man, apart from Christ, is under the reign of Satan’s government. Within his wicked government, Satan has set up multiple ways to receive worship from man. All of these religions have their origins in demonism because they reject Christ as Savior.

Furthermore, not one of the human founders of any of these religions were willing to give their lives for the salvation of their followers. Even if they did die for their followers it would have done no good since these founders were sinners themselves. Jesus not only died for His followers but for the whole world. He was our substitute who suffered the penalty for the sin we committed. Since Jesus was sinless, His death paid for our sin.

Since other religions don’t have a sinless Savior, they have a system of things one must do to reach “nirvana” or “paradise” or to ensure that one’s “reincarnation” gets them to a better life. None of this can lead to the true God because this is not what He is asking from anyone. The true God, the One taught in the Bible, bases salvation strictly on a loving relationship with Him. That relationship cn only come through recognizing all that Christ has done on our behalf to make relationship with God possible.

Therefore, do not be deceived by Satan’s tactics. All religions do not lead to the true God. All of them are based on lies (though they might have a little bit of truth in them to draw people in). God cannot partner with a lie in order to bring people to Him: “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me” (John 14:6). Jesus is the only way to God. To look for any other way will get a person lost eternally.
