This is a continuation from the debate video entitled, DEBATE: CHRISTIANS VS PAPISTS - BIBLE ONLY OR BIBLE PLUS ROMAN TRADITIONS & DECREES AS TIME GOES ON." The Roman Catholic Vatican II, "Lumen Gentium," November 21, 1964, "Dogmatic Constitution of the Church," Chapter 2, "The People of God," pages 367-368 says, "But the plan of salvation also includes those who acknowledge the Creator, in the first place amongst whom are the Moslems: these profess to hold the faith of Abraham, and together with us they adore the one, merciful God, mankind's judge on the last day ... Those who, through no fault of their own, do not know the gospel of Christ or his Church, but who nevertheless seek God with a sincere heart, and moved by grace, try in their actions to do his will as they know it through the dictates of their conscience - those too may achieve eternal salvation. Nor shall divine providence deny the assistance necessary for salvation to those who, without any fault of theirs, have not yet arrived at an explicit knowledge of God, and who not without grace, strive to lead a good life."
In this official Roman Catholic document the Vatican gives a free pass to Islam & its Muslim followers by saying that they believe in the same Creator God but the fact is that Muslims do not! Jesus is God Almighty in the flesh, second person of the Holy Trinity, & Creator of the Universe (John 1:1-14, Col 1:16-17, Col 2:9) yet Muslims deny that Jesus is God or that Jesus is even the son of God (see our website MUSLIMHOPE.COM or type "LARRY WESSELS ISLAM" in the YOUTUBE search box for over 40 videos contrasting Christianity with Mohammed's religion). |
