Horus, Krishna, Dyonysis, Attis, Mithra, where are they now? None of them has the compelling story of Jesus of Nazarath. A story so compelling that the peaceful, non-violent, carpenter, has vanquished them all. The followers of Christianity could subdue the rest of the world at a moments notice. Mohmmad? Buddha? Confucius? What have they gave their people?
"The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of God stands forever." Isaiah, 40:8.
Right jaxvid. I am so trying to stay out of this. There is so much I could say about this subject, but I don't know where to begin and there's nothing I can say to change anyone who doesn't believe in the Lord Jesus Christ. Only God through the Holy Sprit can convict someone that they are a sinner and need forgiveness. That forgiveness comes by the shed blood and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
All these false Gods compared to Jesus, Thrashen mentioned, are full of distortions, half truths and lack of evidence. I'll cover only a couple for the sake of space and time, but you all can do your own research and decide. No one who has ever lived made the claims of Jesus and no one ever will.
I'm not going to get into all the evidence for reasons I believe and the truth of Jesus, but there is more evidence for The Bible and Jesus than any other writings ever. If you want the truth you can do you own research, but before you do, ask God to really help you and don't do it with your own mindset.
Horus: Are you kidding me? Talk about weird! I suggest you read Horus Manure: Debunking the Jesus/Horus Connection. You can google it. Then if you want to run with the likes of Bill Maher and his ilk go right ahead. The story of Horus comparison to Jesus is really sad.
Krishna/Hinduism: Hinduism is polytheistic and believes in reincarnation, with the possibility of coming back as an animal, and if you're good enough, you might get into heaven. A total contradiction to Christianity. Christianity says," there are none good or righteous," Romans; 3:10.
There's no comparison of these other Gods to Jesus: No other God said,"I am the way the truth and the life, no man comes to the father, but by me." John: 14:6. He didn't say, I am a way or one way, or many ways, He said I AM THE WAY. He's the only way or there's no way. No in between, sorry.
Contrary to what Thrashen said, There is only one Savior and that is the Lord Jesus Christ!
The one thing that no one has mentioned in criticizing Christians for what they do and don't do is, it's not about what Christians do or don't do. Christianity is not about being good or good enough. No one will ever be good enough. The Bible says in Romans, 3:23, For ALL have sinned and come short of the glory of God. Just about every post here talks about what Christians are doing wrong. Your eyes are on people not Jesus. Get your eyes off of people and on the true savior Jesus Christ!
I don't expect those of you who are not Christian to understand a lot of what I'm saying. The Bible says, the man without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God, they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are Spiritually discerned." I Corinthians 2:14.
It's impossible to read and understand The Bible unless you're a born again saved Christian.
The Bible says, But their, (unbelievers), minds were made dull and a veil covers their minds and the understanding of Christ's forgiveness, but that whenever anyone turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away.
II Corinthians 3:14-16.
Again, unbelievers are blind to the Truth of Christ Jesus. The hymn Amazing Grace, says "I once was lost but now I see!"
The good news is: there is a way to change from being lost to being saved, and that is to confess you're a sinner, turn from your sin and ask Jesus to save you and help you to follow HIM, NOT OTHER CHRISTIANS!
But God demonstrates his own love for us in while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Romans, 5:8.
If you confess with your mouth, Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that god has raised him from the dead, you will be saved." Romans, 10:9-10.
Lastly, I know that many of you here are younger than I am and it saddens me to see the CM have succeeded in getting some of you to believe in no God, many Gods, etc. and or that Jesus was not who he says he is.
BTW, Christianity is not a religion. That alone separates it from any religion.
