The existence of so many religions is not an argument against God's existence or an argument that truth
about God is not clear. Rather, the existence of so many religions is demonstration of humanity's
rejection of the one true God. Mankind has replaced Him with gods that are more to their liking. This is a
dangerous enterprise. The desire to recreate God in our own image comes from the sin nature within
us—a nature that will eventually “reap destruction” (Galatians 6:7-8).

Do all religions lead to God? No. All people—religious or otherwise—will stand before God someday
(Hebrews 9:27), but religious affiliation is not what determines your eternal destiny. Only faith in Jesus
Christ will save. “Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have
life” (1 John 5:12). It’s as simple as that. Only Christianity—faith in the death and resurrection of Jesus
Christ—leads to God’s forgiveness and eternal life. No one comes to the Father except through the Son
(John 14:6). It does make a difference what you believe. The decision to embrace the truth about Jesus
Christ is important. Eternity is an awfully long time to be wrong.
