Nice post and thank you so much for joining. Your views are right inline with my own (For the most part) but I do have to question what it means to you to "preach Christ". This means so many things to so many people, from the fundalmentalist to the liberal. I'm a liberal --> Way left, so my idea of preaching "Christ" is more than likely different from your own.

As far as Christ "the person" being the only way to God, I'd have to disagree. In my mind, Christ the Spirit, or essence is the only way to God. By this I mean that God's essence was/is Christs essence and it is this essence that actually saves and lends one the abilty to know God on a deeper level.

Christ said that there are many mansions in his fathers house, and to me this implies that God is present in many places, people, religions, or even in some who lack religion or belief in the divine at all.

I simply believe that where love is, there God is also, and we can talk about biblical reference to this idea if your not sure where I'm getting it.

JunkYard Reviewed by JunkYard on . Many Mansions *Christian Discussion* John 14 1-26 Lets discuss this a bit. Is Christ the only way to God, or did he simply create/show the bridge by which all mankind can travel? Is a literal belief in the person nescessary, or is there another way? Please explain why you believe what you do, I'll share my views and we'll have ourselves a nice civilized discussion. (Quoting scripture is expected) I'll do the same. We'll keep it with in the limits of biblical text, and our personal views of it. p.s. To those who are Rating: 5
