Do all religions lead to the same God?

JUDAISM, CHRISTIANITY, PAGANISM AND POLYTHEISM

ROMANS 1:18-32: MANKIND REJECTS GOD Gospel- to the Jew first and then the Gentile God made Himself clearly known first through His creation They knew about Him but refused to respond to Him personally They instead turned to images in the form of animals, etc. They worshiped created things over the Creator God gave them over to their objects of worship They continued to not only practice evil but encourage others to do the same

JUDAISM GENESIS 1:1 God created the heavens and the earth GENESIS 1:26 God created man in His own image….male and female Duet. 6:4, 5 Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength.

CHRISTIANITY

JOHN 14:6 I AM THE WAY THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE, NO ONE COMES TO THE FATHER BUT THROUGH ME.

Deuteronomy 18:9-13 (NIV) Occult Practices 9 When you enter the land the Lord your God is giving you, do not learn to imitate the detestable ways of the nations there. 10 Let no one be found among you who sacrifices their son or daughter in the fire, who practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages in witchcraft, 11 or casts spells, or who is a medium or spiritist or who consults the dead. 12 Anyone who does these things is detestable to the Lord; because of these same detestable practices the Lord your God will drive out those nations before you. 13 You must be blameless before the Lord your God.

EGYPTIAN GODS AND GODESSES

Mesopotamian Polytheism

Greek Polytheism

Acts 17:22-32 Paul speaks to Greek Polytheists in Athens Greece God made the world and everything in it He does not live in temples made with human hands He is not served by human hands From one man he made all the nations God wants us to seek and find Jesus, His only Son In Him “we live and move and have our being” He is not made of gold by human hands He commands all people to repent and believe The proof in in the resurrection of Christ from the dead

Duet. 6:4, 5 Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength.
