Why do you need Jesus Christ

SECTION 1-FROM ATHEISM TO CHRISTIANITY

1) Did man’s imagination create God, or did God really communicate to man that he exists through our imagination?

2) If so, most of the so-called religions, such as Buddhism, Hinduism, Shintoism, Confusianism, Taoism and even Agnosticism, are actually Philosophies, because they still feel that God is unknowable even though He has communicated with U.S. So they had to develop their own way of life, which might include their interpretation of what a God could be like if He existed without actually knowing Him.

3) In some primitive religions of today, there is even the belief in many gods, each God represents some control over some aspect of human life.

4) There are only 3 major religions in the world that came to the conclusion that there is actually only one God. They are 1) Christianity, 2) Judaism, and 3) Mohammedanism.

5) Each of these major religions has its own book that expresses its beliefs (Christianity, the Bible; Judaism, the Old Testament of the Bible; and Muhammad, the Koran). ON

6) But the Quran was written by a Messenger of God, while the Bible (both the Old and New Testaments) were written by Many Messengers of God. So which book would you tend to believe?

7) Christianity, I believe, is the only one that deals effectively with evil. Judaism has the biblical structure for it in Genesis, but it tends to ignore it believing that at the end of time a Messiah will come and save everyone, and we will live peacefully on our present Earth according to a Jewish Internet website that I read.

8) Christianity believes that evil is actually caused by original sin (Genesis 3). And the answer is in Believing in Jesus Christ, His life, His death and His resurrection for the forgiveness and punishment of our sins. Proof of all this can be found in the Four Gospels of the Bible about Jesus Christ written by Four Different Messengers of God, and also in my Brochures “Who is Jesus Christ” and “The Logic of Christianity” published by Amazon, which could also be purchased from me individually for 200 pesos.

9) Another interesting point is that even two of his stepbrothers (their letters can be found in the Bible, James and Judas) accepted Jesus as the Son of God, and even God himself.
