    based on 14 ratings
     | 7,839 views

    Do all religions lead to God? Aren’t they really just different paths to the same place, different perspectives on the same thing, different names for the same “higher power”? Tempting, but then we confront Jesus.

     | 3,206 views

    At Jesus’ invitation we “come and see” where He is staying, and what we see is that our sins are gone, that we have a clean slate and a fresh start, that we are adopted into God’s family, reconciled to our Father, and that we have eternal life.

    Live With the Lamb: John 1:35-39 I want us to think just now of the one most important reason why anybody should follow Jesus Christ over, say, Mohammad. Or why would we follow Christ over Buddha, or Confuscious, or the religion of Hare Krishna, or Hinduism or Taoism. You kids here today are going ...read more
