22 04 CHRISTIAN Alternatives Seo Yoon Chung Bhagwati- - The- false- alarm- over- Christians- in- India.html

23 Christian Hinduism Alternatives 02 Strength 03 Weakness 04 Christian Alternative 1 SALVATION from God Were you a slave when you were called? Don't let it trouble you- - although if you can gain your freedom, do so. For he who was a slave when he was called by the Lord is the Lord's freedman; similarly, he who was a free man when he was called is Christ's slave. You were bought at a price; do not become slaves of men. Brothers, each man, as responsible to God, should remain in the situation God called him to. 1 Corinthians 7:21-24 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith- - and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God- not by works, so that no one can boast. Ephesians 2:8-9 Just as man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment, so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him. Hebrews 9:27-28

24 01 Hinduism 02 Strength 03 Weakness 04 Christian Alternative 2 Everyone is EQUAL The community is to have the same rules for you and for the alien living among you; this is a lasting ordinance for the generations to come. You and the alien shall be the same before the LORD. The same laws and regulations will apply both to you and to the alien living among you. Numbers 15:15-16 For we were all baptized by one Spirit into one body- - whether Jews or Greeks, slave or free- - and we were all given the one Spirit to drink. 1 Corinthians 12:13 There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. Galatians 3:28

25 01 Hinduism 02 Strength 03 Weakness 04 Christian Alternative 3 An ABSOULUTE Standard You shall have no other gods before me. You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me. Exodus 20:3 Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one. Deuteronomy 6:4 Jesus answered, I am the way and the truth and the life, No one comes to the Father except through me. John 14:6
