Period. ....No matter what story they tell you or anybody else! No matter the shingle they hang on their church.! No matter the books they carry.! No matter the message they preach! No matter that they even say that they be Christian!...If they deny that Christ is God, then they preach another Jesus!....then let them be accursed! As it is written, so it shall be done.
Shalom:
You seem the be ignorant of Early Christian origins. After Jesus (Pbuh) left, many of his followers did not believe he was God. There were many sects that were divided on what exactly to believe. The sects that believed Jesus (Pbuh) was not God either died out, were killed off, or eliminated as heretics. The contents of the Bible were being debated 350 years after Jesus left this earth.
The major difference between Christianity and all others is MAJOR indeed....Christianity knows Christ to be God.
Even though he denied it? Even though you cannot provide a word from his mouth to confirm this but rely on what others wrote about Jesus (Pbuh)?
One either believes that Christ was worthy to die for the sins of the world,
Tell me, why would not any other man suffice to die for our sins?
If they don't they are not a Christian, no matter what title they give their place of worship. They cannot worship God in truth. Period
Again, why does Jesus (Pbuh) not mention these requirements when asked how to reach Heaven? Jesus (Pbuh) is on record as saying that ye need to keep the commandments to reach everlasting life. Why do you suppose he left out the part of worshipping him? You think he didn't feel it was important??
