SALVATION OFFERED THROUGH “THE SON OF GOD”, NOT THROUGH “GOD THE FATHER”.
Presbyterian Pastor Dirk Ficca, famous for his quip “What’s the big deal about Jesus?” is still defending himself in the controversy he created with those words. What he meant, he says, was “that the God Christians know through Jesus can be and is also at work through other religious traditions.” If Ficca’s Christian witness leads “somebody to becoming a Christian, that’s fabulous,” he says. “But yes, I believe God can work within Islam as well, or any other religion.” (Toledo Blade, 2/1/03)
[Editor] There are some things that God cannot do. He cannot lie. (Titus 1:2) He cannot go back on His Word. (Heb 13:8) He cannot be tempted. (James 1:13) There is more, but you get the picture.
Another thing that God CANNOT and WILL NOT DO, is work through ANYONE but through HIS SON JESUS CHRIST.
Are you beginning to get an idea as to where the denominations are headed?
Some synonyms for denomination are-numbers, mass, bulk, majority, greatest part.
Kinda fits in with what God has said, doesn’t it? (Rom 11:5)

Our Eschatology may vary even our Ecclesiology may be disputed among us but our Soteriology most assume a singularity and exclusivity which in biblical term is known as Quote; "The Narrow Way" and Quote!
