Jesus and the World Religions.

Only in the Bible will you find an almighty God who loves you from the heart.

And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in him. 1 John 4:16 (NIV)

The God in the Qur'an is the creator and judge, but in the Islamic scriptures there is no Father God.
 
And do not set your heart on what you will eat or drink; do not worry about it.
For the pagan world runs after all such things, and your Father knows that you need them.
Lk 12:29-30 (NIV)


Only in the Bible do you find an almighty God who loves absolutely every human being.

"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16 (NIV)

This is good, and it pleases God our Saviour,
who wants everyone to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.
1 Tim 2:3-4 CSB17
 
 
Only in the Bible do you find an almighty God who loves his enemies.

Then Jesus said, "Father, forgive them, because they do not know what they are doing." And they divided his clothes and cast lots. Lk 23:34 CSB17

This is how Jesus prayed when he was dying in agony on the cross.

For if, while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, then how much more, having been reconciled, will we be saved by his life. Rom 5:10 CSB17

Only in the Bible do we find an eternal almighty Father God, who sacrifices his eternal Son to pay for all our sins so that we can have eternal life through repentance and faith.

For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. Rom 6:23 CSB17
