[Biblemat] A: God Is Too Big For One Religion

GOD IS TOO BIG FOR ONE RELIGION?

          There is one faith, Eph 4:5. God's only Son (1 John 4:9), Jesus
Christ, became the one mediator between man and the Father (1 Tim 2:5).
Those who practice the one faith in Jesus are found on the narrow way
leading to the strait gate, Matt 7:13-14. The word strait refers to a "gate"
where the entrance is so pinched or pressed so tightly together that only
the faithful can enter. 

          Does God limit His will through one person? The answer is yes when
you acknowledge the only way to the Father is through Jesus, John 14:6. Did
Jesus teach multiple faiths or religious beliefs? Are there many roads or
ways leading to the Father? There was a certain damsel possessed with a
spirit of divination who followed Paul and other godly men saying "These men
are the servants of the most high God, which shew unto us the way of
salvation." (Acts 16:16-17) Notice, she mentions "the way", not "the ways".
Remember Jesus said He was THE WAY! Many religious groups falsely claim
there are several roads or ways leading to the same "gate". 

          The writer of Hebrews wrote, "By a new and living way, which he
hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;" (Heb
10:20) Dear readers, recognize those who claim multiple ways (multiple
religions) in the name of Jesus are teaching the broad way leading to
everlasting punishment!
