That said for our world, I still believe Jesus who is the logos become flesh is the only way to salvation for this plane of existence. Before his incarnation it may have been a different story, but to much has been given much is also expected. Jesus came to die for us already, we either accept him as Lord and savior or we don't. I would never budge from this even if a gun were pointed to my head, or that of my daughter. |
If you accept there are different paths to salvation for different alien races, why is it so hard to accept there are different paths to salvation right here on earth?
Just think how complicated things would become if alien visitors with different salvation belief (but holding that belief directly from the same God you believe) came to visit earth. How would you discern whether they were in fact alien "Christians" and not alien "Muslims" or alien "Buddhists". How would you discern whether they even actually believed in the same God?
Or maybe they have a picture of a tablet with "YHWH" written on it, which you could claim to be proof they are of the same God - how do you then prove they are not alien "Jews" or alien Jehovah's Witnesses or alien Lord's Recovery? (oh, that one's easy, they'd all be wearing the same clothes
)
Would you try to convert them to Jesus or accept that they have a different salvation model?
Philosophical questions for you, not to be taken too seriously but fun to ponder
