I would like to conjecture what if Christianity is not true? If Jesus did not die on the cross, Christianity is not true. If the Apostles did not see Jesus physically alive from the dead in various group settings, Christianity is not true. But if they saw Jesus alive from the dead then nothing is more precious than what Jesus did on the cross for the sins of the world. Even so most people still go to Hell, because experientially most people, in fact, reject Christ even worshiping a false Christ.
If Christianity is not true, we might consider everyone saved including Hitler, Stalin, Mao, your local rapist, mafia and casino owners. If Christianity is not true, we might consider God to be a Deist, that is, He is an absentee landlord yet created this universe, or a lesser god created this universe. Is that holy, just, righteous and true for God to be an absentee landlord to not have His presence with us to be felt intuitively and in person as Jesus in His creation? Just as it is unethical for humans be absentee landlords so is it is immoral for humans towards humans.
A world without a loving God would be a world far worse than it is now, because a loving God would not let things get as bad as an absentee landlord would. This is very insightful I think which shows only Christianity is true and all other faiths, including atheism and agnosticism, are false. Praise the Lord for this discernment! Amen.
Therefore, we know the Trinity is true, Jesus is God, salvation is not by works (lest anyone should boast), and there is no other name under heaven by which one can be saved. That's all I wanted to say.
