Three Controversial But Important Topics We Must Address

Pastors and ministers have countless topics to address and an unending stream questions to answer, but none are as important in 2012 as these:

1. The Exclusivity of Christ - Are all religions equal? Are there many paths to God? Or is Jesus the only way to God as stated in John 14:6? ("I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.")

2. The Authority of Scripture - Is the Bible trustworthy, or flawed? Is the Bible authoritative, or merely suggestive?

3. The Sanctity of Marriage - Does marriage still matter? Is marriage exclusively between one man and one woman? Is it ok to redefine marriage to fit in with contemporary cultural values?

These questions will not go away. If we don't address them, someone else will.

I've been a born again christian for 13 years and believe that the Bible is The Word of God. However,over the years I have been researching the history of the Jews. It makes me wonder sometimes about how God calls them 'the chosen people'when it was written by Jews. That would mean that all of us could claim this too

Same questions asked by the early church from St. Paul's time. I expect the same answer because Truth never change.

1. Salvation is through Jesus Christ only.
2. The Bible is trustworthy & infallible because it is inspired by God as announced by the Church - who is the pillar and foundation of the Truth (1 Tim 1:20)
3. Marriage is instituted by God and not by man. He solely have the right to 'redefine' it.

I do believe that among all questions regarding religion, the main one is 'What for does exist church?'. People could believe or not believe in God, Buddha, Allah...but there is no need in church.
Church is the biggest business organization with enormous revenue.
