If you are gonna mince words then no need to have a conversation.
Have you done an in-depth study of those religions, AS a BELIEVER of those religions?
If so, then please break down the differences for me.
If not, then you are feeding me your interpretation of what the Christian "Word" has to say about OTHER religions.
Let me re-introduce myself.
I'm laidbackfella and I believe IN God not IN Christianity.
The Spirit is the GUIDE, the religion is the PRACTICE.
I'm more concerned about spirituality than religion.
Spirit is enduring, religions may come and go.
Spirit, in essence, is pure, some religions have agendas.
So when I say God, I put no SPIN of a religion with it.
I'm simply saying higher power.
Now you can assign any name that suits you best.

This is the typical liberal and all inclusive view of religion that is very popular these days. To be a Christian means to have a relationship with Jesus Christ. So if you are not calling yourself a Christian..... then you're not professing Jesus Christ as the Way the Truth and the Life. I guess your re-introduction of self explains why you take the stance you do on many subjects..so its cool to see the thought process behind the posts. The word says to put no other god before him..and that you cannot serve two masters. And that the only way to the Father is through the son Jesus Christ.
Back to the original question posed in this thread..I believe a man of God professes the Living God, Jesus Christ as his source for everything...and the only True God.
