Jesus TRUE Son of God and TRUE God!

According to Buddha there are 84,000 paths to enlightenment. Buddhism is one path. Christianity is another path. Islam is yet another path to the top of the mountain (heaven). But, is that really so? Here is what the God of Abram, Isaac and Jacob, the Creator of heaven and earth has to say:

"Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name (then Jesus Christ of Nazareth) under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved"(Acts 4:12).

Considering the above quote from the Word of God, it should be clear to anybody who claims to believe the Word of God, that salvation, from the penalty of sin, is inevitably tied to the name and person of Jesus Christ.

Unfortunately, it is not as simple as that, "For there shall arise false christ's, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if [it were] possible, they shall deceive the very elect"(Matt 24:24).

What that means is that there is the "true Christ," and there are "false christ's," and since salvation is available only by and through the one "true Christ," nothing is more important than to be able to differentiate the "true Christ" from the "false christ's."

Our original parents, Adam and Eve, who committed the original sin, by eating of the tree of the knowledge of "good" (true) and "evil" (false), became "like God, knowing good and evil." Yes, God has the knowledge of good and evil, but God also has the character to never commit evil. Adam and Eve, and every human being born after them, had the knowledge of good and evil, but without having the Holy Spirit of God (tree of life), they committed evil continuously, and that is our lot today.

Lets understand that the tree in the garden was not the tree of "good OR evil," where the "good" could easily be differentiated from the "false." No, it was the tree of "good AND evil" which means that most all knowledge became a mixture of truth and falsehood (syncretism) making it difficult to recognize the "true Christ" from the many "false christ's" that Satan has created over the centuries.

Therefore, just professing Christ is not sufficient, for we could profess a false christ who is unable to save us, and grand us eternal life. For example, if you believe in a christ who is a part of the trinity, you believe in a false christ, for there is no such thing as a trinity. Or, if the christ you believe in has changed His Fathers commandment from Sabbath the seventh day to Sunday the first day,
