This book will aid busy youth workers in their orthodox understanding of God's word. The following is a common view among Christians. Basically the question is if one denomination of Christianity is right or wrong. The following excerpt is particularly interesting because it also challenges the humility of the believer.
“
Christians: Is believing that our religion is the only 100% correct religion being humble?
Jesus taught us to be humble.
Yes many Christians proclaim that they, and only they, are smart enough to KNOW they are in the right religion. It isn’t enough that all non-Christians are wrong, but also that every Christian denomination is wrong as well.
Let’s take Catholicism vs. Protestantism. Isn’t it extremely vain for us to proclaim that OUR side is 100% right, and the other side is wrong? Wouldn’t it be more humble of us to admit that we may be wrong on some things, and the other side may be right?.
For instance, I admit my side is not perfect. I do not believe the pope is 100% infallible. I believe we should have women priests, etc.
Shouldn’t we humble ourselves to admit that, just maybe, we might not be 100% correct?
“
The first part of the question is to analyze the Catholicism versus Protestantism. For purposes of the argument, it is safe to argue any one religion versus another. For example: Hinduism versus Mormonism or any other. It’s important to remember that the analysis of this argument is from the Christian perspective, and to be fair, regardless of denomination.
“For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God” (Ephesians 2:8). As an assumption, all Christians agree that salvation is the most important aspect of the faith. Grace is the gift of God which is salvation through Jesus Christ and this is accomplished through faith. Salvation is not by works then, but simply by faith.
As a contrast, “faith without deeds is dead” (James 2:26). This is not a paradox, rather in context James suggests that you do not truly have faith unless your faith is demonstrated. This is merely a challenge against hypocrisy. It is one thing to say you believe in Jesus Christ; it is another thing to demonstrate your belief in Jesus Christ. In conclusion, all men and women who demonstrate faith in Jesus Christ have found salvation regardless of religious affiliation or denomination. Certainly this leaves out entire religions and even some denominations of Christianity. Certainly one of the biggest questions is that of Catholics versus Protestants. The bible says they are brothers in Jesus Christ.
The second concern is one of humility. Shall we boast? “Let him who boasts boast in the Lord” (2 Corinthians 10:17). If one person has knowledge of God, let him boast because of what God has taught him. He should not boast in the arguably unbiblical traditions which make up their denominations and extricate them from the true faith which is salvation through Jesus Christ. The challenge then is to not be religious, shan’t we boast, but to simply have faith and act upon it as we have been taught by Jesus Christ.
