Does President Obama believe that Jesus is the only way to heaven?

Answer 1

Answer:

YES! Jesus said "I am the way, the truth and the light. NO-ONE can come to the father accept through me."

Heaven

It all depends on the eyes of the beholder. All I can say is Christians believe in Jesus and they believe in Heaven.

From Jona B

If you understand who Christ is and what He did on the cross and that He claimed to be the only way to God you understand why Christian believe Christ is the only way to heaven.

The biggest problem in claiming Chrìst to be the only way to heaven to me is that there are so many people who are living or who have passed away don't know Christ as their Savior either because they lived before Christ time of they haven't heard. If Christ is the only way to heaven how will God save those people? I do have my own answer on this matter. Jona B

Answer

Yes, Christ himself said that he is the only way. He also said that he will return to judge the earth - those still alive and those who have died. Jesus came to save everyone - all humaity - those who died before Jesus as well as those who came after. The Bible, including Paul's letters and Revelation of John, tells us that those who were not around during the time of Jesus will be judged accordingly to their lives; those who accept jesus as their saviour will be saved. The problem lies in those who have heard of Jesus and have chosen to reject him. At the day of Judgement, the Bible tells us that everyone will know that jesus is Lord - his return will be blatantly obvious to everyone. No doubt there will still be those who reject him. They will face then eternity separated from God - it's their choice after all.

Answer:

No of course not. There are other religions that speak of heaven too, like Islam, and they don't believe Jesus is the son of God, just a prophet.

Christ Jesus is the ONLY WAY! For those who were alive before Jesus was born, they had to rely on God to go to heaven. Back then they were saved through faith in God since Jesus wasn't a human yet. (even though he was still in heaven with god. aka his father) any way, now we are saved through faith in Jesus Christ , hense we are called CHRISTians!

Answer:

For anyone to say that God will judge all people who died and never heard of Christ according to how they lived or according to their faith in God is actually implying that there are other ways in which a person who never heard of Christ can enter heaven and that is a direct contradiction with the belief that Christ is the only way to heaven. In another word it is a contradiction to believe that Christ is the only way to God and also believes that God will judge every person (who never heard of Christ during their lifetime on earth) according to their deeds or their faith in God (through general revelation). All Christian have no problem believing that Abraham, Moses, King David went to heaven but few if any ever ponder the fact that these men of faith did not know Jesus and what He did on the cross for their sins. If Jesus is the only way to heave then how did God save Abraham and Moses and king David.... Could it be that these men along with the rest of humanity came to know Jesus after this life. If Christian believe that Christ is the only way to God then the most logical conclusion would be to believe that all the men of faith and the rest of humanity who never heard of Christ have the opportunity to know Christ after they died.

Answer 2

In an interview with the evangelical periodical Christianity Today, Obama stated: "I am a Christian, and I am a devout Christian. I believe in the redemptive death and resurrection of Jesus Christ."

Another answer

People are confused about President Obama's faith for 2 major reasons:

1.Obama was born Muslim. His father is Muslim and Obama attended a madrasa (Islamic school) when he was younger. But, he grew up in Hawaii where his mother practiced Christianity and he went to church from his youth until now.

2.His preacher, Reverend wright is an outspoken anti- American, anti- white, anti Semitic Christian priest- Yet Obama dedicated his book to this man, attended His sermons every Sunday and had his own wedding and children's baptisms done by a man who many view as hateful and extremist.

During Obama's campaign - he distanced himself from Reverend Wright- which many believe was for political gain and not personal belief. This is why many believe his Christian faith is questionable. But for all intensive purposes Obama states he is a true and full Christian.

Other answers

• Some may say he does, but more than 35% of people surveyed say he believes that Muslims should rule the world.

• According to Islam- if you are born of a Muslim father you are always a Muslim. Period. So at least to Muslims and Islamic countries around the world

• Faith is your belief. If you say you are Christian and belief in Christ then that makes you a believing christian.
• Yes, he believes Jesus existed, but then many bad people believe in Jesus also. He claims to be some sort of Christian, but his beliefs do not follow what Jesus taught. Obama is for abortion in all forms, clearly against true Christianity. As Jesus said, "Those not for us, are against us".
• The verse actually reads : "For whoever is not against us is for us" Mark 9-40It takes on a different meaning... in context.
• Thank you for the scripture correction. It does take on a different meaning in scripture. In the case of Obama, both fit him well. He may claim to be a Christian, but he fails to do what Jesus taught.

Answer 3

The president is a Christian, but he is not an evangelical Baptist nor is he a fundamentalist Christian; these are two of the conservative Protestant denominations that believe only religious Christians who accept a specific interpretation of scripture will go to heaven, and that other religions and all other interpretations are in error. Mr. Obama is not America's pastor, however; he is the president, which is a secular position in our democracy. Thus, he believes that Americans should respect people of all religions and he supports the First Amendment idea that we have separation of church and state.

Answer 4

You will read that he believes Jesus is The Son of God but you will be hard pressed to find a direct quote that he believes Jesus is God The Son.

Another answer

There is ample evidence that President Obama was raised by Protestant Christians (his grandparents) who believed that Jesus is the son of God, but is not the same as God. By definition, a Christian believes that he or she should follow Jesus Christ; and Barack Obama does in fact believe that Jesus is the Christ (the promised messiah). So, given the many different views that Christians have on this subject, it is accurate to say he believes in God the Father and also believes that Jesus is the son of God, a view held by many Protestant Christians.

Answer 5

This is what he has said: In an interview with the evangelical periodical Christianity Today, Obama stated: "I am a Christian, and I am a devout Christian. I believe in the redemptive death and resurrection of Jesus Christ."

Answer 6

Christians believe in spiritual places known as heaven and hell. They believe that in order to go to heaven after you die, you have to believe that Jesus Christ died for our sins. This is a matter of Christian faith and is not supported by other religions.
