Why Tim Tebow is great

[habsheaven]

Yes, because the Bible tells us that our salvation is based on our faith, not on our works. That was one of Jesus's primary teachings. My opinions are coming from the Bible.

I thought so. And you wonder why so many people reject religion. I am curious to see how all the "good" christians get along with the "born-again convict" christians when they get to heaven.

Maybe you'll get to find out one day.

They would be wrong if they knew anything about history. Allah and God are the same being, just viewed from different perspectives. Christians view God as a loving, just, and forgiving one with whom you have a personal relationship. Muslims view Allah as a vindictive one who brings wrath to those who don't follow the rules.

Huh? Who's the vindictive one? I'm confused. According to what I was just told, I will be going to Hell for all eternity for not following the rules. How is that different from Allah?

One can hope.....They'll get along fine as we all understand that it's a free gift and we all are pretty worthless to begin with.....

Is there a scriptural reference you have to support that belief?

No scriptures from any holy books it is just the faith that I have in my heart.

Only if your God is TRULY just.

Just one rule. Accept Jesus as your personal savior and you're good to go.

I totally agree with you that Allah and God are one of the same. And he is also viewed from slightly different prespectives. However you lost me when you try to claim that christians view god as loving and muslims view god as hateful. Have you not been reading some of the biblical scripture that has been presented on this discussion by our good friend GBM?

Yes, and when read as a whole, the message of Christ is one of God's grace and forgiveness.

Yeah I don't have a problem with the bible teaching that and christians believing that but if you look at it from a neutral prespective without religious bias the koran says similiar things. Yes there may be references to God's/Allah's anger and rath in the koran but it can also be found in the bible.
