Respect For Other Religions; Where Do We Draw The Line? by OLAADEGBU(m): 3:14am On Oct 04, 2014
Where do we draw the line between showing respect for other religions, while at the same time strongly proclaiming that Jesus is the only way of salvation? undecided

Ideally, the line should be drawn at a place that demands nothing but contempt for every other religion. Showing respect to another religion is a tacit admission that it has some value, and what makes a religion valuable if not authenticity?

In the presence of just one true God, what would be the basis of respecting any religion that does not worship that true God? Any show of respect to other religions means ones own religion is not entirely correct, as you would be admitting that there is some positive value in worshipping false Gods. If ones religion is correct, other religions should not be tolerated, at least in the interest of the salvation of all of mankind.

So, ideally the disdain which you have for Satanism should be extended to Islam, ATR, Judaism, etc. A false God is a false God, whether he is Lucifer or not. However, thanks to cognitive dissonance, you are able to eat your cake and think you still have it.

Every religion has some moral values in them even atheists have some morals it's just that they would not acknowledge from where it comes from, that is, we all have the image of God though traces of it can still be seen.

Adherents of many religious beliefs may be sincere it's just that they are sincerely wrong. Christianity is not a religion, it is having a living relationship with the infinite uncreated Creator. With love we should reach out to those who are seeking to reach God and explain to them that God has already reached out to them by becoming a man in the Person of Jesus Christ who came to seek and to save those who are lost.
