Pride

[elijah23]

Maybe it's just me, but don't you have another article, Elijah, that is pretty much the exact same thing? They started at slightly different places but you have moved them into the same topic. Just saying...

Yes. I began with the topic of “pride,†but something came to me in that topic that I thought was worth having as a topic of it’s own—the question of who would go to heaven—the Muslim or the Christian.

I believe Jesus is God in the flesh. Jesus is our savior. So is God. Read this:

[quote:34t26j8x][21] They forgot God, their Savior,
who had done great things in Egypt,
[22] wondrous works in the land of Ham,
and terrible things by the Red Sea. Psalms 106:21-22

[/quote:34t26j8x]

I believe God is our Savior, because Jesus is God. That psalm seems to be speaking to the Jews, though. God was their Savior, if they followed His Law. Jesus was the fulfillment of that Law, we are saved because He fulfilled the Law and allowed for Gentiles and go to Heaven through His death. He also made it so that He was the only way to Heaven.

"I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me."

Of course no one can read God's mind... than again, you can't read any bodies mind...

I can, however, read the Word of God. The Truth He set before us so we may enter into the Kingdom. It is really simple: Accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior and allow for the baptism of the Holy Spirit. You don't seem to understand that a Christian, a real Christian who has been baptized in the Holy Spirit (and it goes without saying accepted Jesus), will not be breaking those two commandments any time soon! Why? They are new people not of this world, but of Heaven.

May I suggest you go (re)read the Bible, or at least the New Testament and see that the line you are quoting is but a fraction of the teachings of Jesus and of the way to salvation.

Prayer is always helpful too!

A real Christian will obey the commandments of Jesus, found in the books of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, right?

Sure he will. It is what happens when the Holy Spirit comes upon you. Now, this isn't to say people don't make mistakes, after all there is a reason we are not in Eden right now! Even with the Holy Spirit we still have the ability to decide, we can still fill our mind with the garbage of the world.

Yes, when we repent of our sin, we have heaven (peace of mind), I believe.
