History of Belief • Enlightenment: The possession of Truth • If you fully embrace the Truth, then you will live according to the principles of that Truth and possibly achieve the ultimate goal. • Different faiths profess different Truths. • Hinduism (Hindus) • Buddhism (Buddhists) • Judaism (Jews) • Christian (Christians) • Islam (Muslims) Abrahamic Faiths
Judaism, Christianity, & Islam • GOD • JEWS: One God, one form (God of Abraham) • CHRISTIANS: One God, three forms (God of Abraham) • MUSLIMS: One God, one form (God of Abraham) • JESUS • JEWS: Not the messiah or son of God; not resurrected • CHRISTIANS: Savior, Messiah, son of God; resurrected • MUSLIMS: Prophet, not the messiah or son of God; did not die; was not resurrected; will come again at the end of time to bring Christians to Islam
Judaism, Christianity, & Islam • SALVATION AFTER DEATH • JEWS: There is a “world to come” called Olam Ha-Ba. Some believe that only the “righteous” who obey God’s laws reach Olam Ha-Ba. Others believe that all reach the afterlife but the righteous receive a greater existence there (in paradise, called Gan Eden). • CHRISTIANS: Paradise (Heaven) is available to all through the death and resurrection of Jesus. No person can receive salvation except through the grace of God. • MUSLIMS: Believers who obey the Quranic laws given through the Prophet earn salvation in paradise.
Judaism:Messiah &Kingdom • At the End of Days, God will anoint (choose) a supreme king to rule over His kingdom (a new Israel) from the city of Jerusalem. The chosen messiah will not be a God or the son of God. He will be fully human, a descendant from the family of King David. His government will be the central government of all mankind. All Jews will return to the Holy Land of Israel. All humans will accept God as the only true God and Judaism as the one, true faith. There will be an end to war and suffering and violence in the new creation. The “righteous” dead will be resurrected to experience the new creation.
Christianity:Messiah &Kingdom • Jesus is the messiah (the Christ), the savior and Son of God. Jesus’ death on the cross saved humanity. Because human beings are so sinful, they could never gain salvation on their own. They could never fully pay for all of their sins against God. So Jesus paid the price for all humanity. He took the punishment that all peoples deserve, and then he overcame sin and death through resurrection. Jesus’ sacrifice and resurrection guaranteed that all may receive salvation in God’s kingdom. He will come again to judge the living and the dead (which will be resurrected for judgment) and will create a new and perfect kingdom.
Islam:Messiah &Kingdom • God will send a messiah called the Mahdi at the end of time. The Mahdi will be a descendant of the Holy Prophet Muhammad, and his name will also be Muhammad. He will rid the world of oppression and establish the rule of Islam over all other religions and peoples. Justice and fairness will exist throughout the world. Jesus, the prophet, will also return to assist the Mahdi in the creation of God’s kingdom on Earth. Jesus will confirm that Islam is the true faith. On the final day, God will resurrect the dead and judge all according to their faith and obedience to the laws of the holy Quran.
