My goodness, there he goes again...

Here we go again... Michael Manning (Catholic television personality)on Larry King Live denies that Christ is the only way to God. I wonder if Mr. Manning has paid any attention to the Apostle Paul's explanation of man's position before God in the book of Romans. It is clear in Scripture that nobody goes to hell because they "never heard of Jesus" (Romans 1), and equally clear that there is none righteous, not even one (Romans 3). God speaks so clearly to mankind's condition before Christ... All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. That's me, you and everyone. We are all in the same position. And the incredible thing about God, is that God is Love. He doesn't simply leave creation spinning off into darkness. But, God Himself becomes a man, lives the life that we couldn't live and dies in our place on the cross. The Father treats Jesus as if He lived our life and credits to our account the life and righteousness of the Lord Jesus. And this is a free gift by faith alone (Romans 3:28)! The fact that Manning says that a Jew or Muslim can have a relationship with the Father some other way other than Jesus... completely denies the work and provision of the Lord Jesus. It is the absolute antithesis of Biblical Theology. Check this out...
