Do we all go to Heaven if we believe in Godd? is there one god or does it depend on what religion we believe in?
Originally posted by PinkFloydthat's exactly what i mean! who's to say that your religion is right and all others are wrong? i'm beginning to think that all religon is wrong. people say that heaven is a state of mind, and not a place you go. if you have heaven in your heart, you're already in heaven. that state of bliss is an empirical experience that transcend raace creed color and...religion. all this bloodshed or in iraq over islamic and christialn faiths would all be erased if we just abandon religion altogether! al it does is keep people sitting idly by (idle worship) when the hand to save us is at the end of our arms!
It's not God-belief that gets us into heaven--it's grace, through faith in our Savior, Jesus Christ.

i think becoming agnostic is the righteous way to be.

I got chastised for assuming too much in another thread, but what does 'faith in our Savior,
Jesus Christ' mean? Does a Christian, for example, have to believe that Jesus walked on water
or cured diseases in order to still make the above confession?

Originally posted by PinkFloydi don't think that you are a n angel, yet my sense of relity can't confirm or deny that. yet if god were to choose someone, he'd choose you over me because your faith in Him is stronger than mine.
