The challenge of religious confusion
The biggest problem in the religious world is that we do not know God!
Over 70% of Ghanaians claim to be Christians and many Africans rather they are identified by their religion instead of their nationality.
But how many
know
the one true God of the Bible?Slide5
The problem of polytheism
Polytheism goes back to the Mosaic age
People worshipped the god of the moon, sun, sea, and fertility.
They tried to keep all the gods happy therefore divided their allegiance between them.Slide6
Pantheism
“In a sense there is no such thing as God, God does not exist. And in another sense, there is nothing else but God – only God exist…All is God. And because all is God, there is no God.”
In other words, if everything is something, then everything is nothing.Slide7
Deism
According to Joseph
Joubert
:
“God has withdrawn within Himself and hidden within the bosom of His own being.”Slide8
