Only One True God?

Recently, Pope Francis argued that all religions worship God whether a person calls Him God, Buddha, Jesus Christ or Allah. He further stated, "In this crowd, in this range of religions, there is only one certainty that we have for all, we are all children of God."

Pope Francis was correct in that we are all children of God. However, we are children of the One And Only True God! After this One True God rescued the children of Israel from the bondage of Egypt, He brought them to the base of Mt. Sinai. He summoned Moses to come up on the mountain and He welcomed Moses by saying about the Israelites, "Now therefore, if you will indeed obey My voice and keep My covenant, then you shall be a special treasure to Me above all people; for all the earth is Mine. And you shall be to Me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation. These are the words which you shall speak to the children of Israel." Exodus 19:5-6. 

Then the One True God explained to Moses how the children of Israel were to obey Him. Exodus 20:1-4 says, "I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. You shall have no other gods before Me. You shall not make for yourself any carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth." There is no question about who is the One True God! He shall be obeyed and worshiped over any man-made false gods.!

The children of Israel obeyed the One True God but not wholeheartedly. As a result, the One True God sent His Son Jesus Christ to earth to die on the cross to save all man-kind and to forgive them of their sins. Hebrews 8:8 says, "Behold, the days are coming, says The Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah."

All man-kind lives under the New Covenant through the shed blood of Jesus Christ - True Son Of The One True God! Romans 10:9 says, "That if you confess with your mouth The Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved." I trust you know Jesus as your Lord and Savior, if not, today ask Him to come into your heart, to be your Lord and Savior also asking Him to forgive you of all your sins. 

Praise The Lord!

May The Lord Bless You And Keep You This Day And Each Day,
