Pastor Seye-Benjamin Agbo of The Lighthouse church, in Arizona, United States, has sparked online discussions following a sermon in which she spoke about faith, religious differences, and the Christian belief in salvation through Jesus Christ.
During the sermon, she stressed that Christians should not equate their beliefs with those of other religions, particularly Islam, as she highlighted what she described as a clear distinction in faith.
“The God you serve, is not the them the same god that Muslim serve. Don’t try to say we do do cause we are not serving the same god. The gods of other religions they are man made. They are d+ad and not risen”..READ FULL; FROM THE SOURCE.
She further emphasized the Christian belief in Jesus Christ as the only path to salvation, stating that there is no alternative way to God outside Him.
“The only one that rose from the grave to conquer the holds of death is name is Jesus. There are not many ways to god there is only one way. If they don’t go through Jesus then they are not serving our God.”
She also urged Christians to remain firm in their faith while encouraging them to pray for people of other beliefs rather than making them comfortable in their current convictions.
“All your Muslims colleagues and family are yet to give their life to Christ. Don’t make them comfortable instead what you should do for them is to intercede that the eyes of their understanding will be enlightened”
This is a misconceived message to the congregation about Muslims. She got it wrong. Truly the God being served by Christians and Muslim are not the same because the Christians believes and serves Jesus as their God while the Muslims worships the God in heaven, the One who sent Jesus to the earth with the message of oneness of God
There is no other god except one God the creator of the heavens and earth and what inside them. The way we serve God is different though Muslims follow Muhammed, Christians follow Jesus Christ, Jews follow Moses etc. All the prophets sent by God from Adam down to Muhammed peace be upon them not for fun but to lead human kind to the right path to serve only one God the Almighty. Jesus Christ did not come to condemn Abraham, David,Solomon ,Moses and even the last prophet Muhammad SAW did not condemn all the prophets that came after him. The problem is either lack of adequate knowledge about the revelations from God through his prophets, superiority and arrogance in faith to study islamic religion. Your religion is yours our religion is ours as no compulsion in religion.
