Are Jews & Muslims Saved?

While Buddhism is a religion that denies the existence of God, Hinduism is based on pagan polytheism. Jews and Muslims, on the other hand, worship and pray to the same God of Abraham that we do, though interpreted differently.

1 Corinthians 8:2-3
Anyone who claims to know all the answers doesn’t really know very much. But the person who loves God is the one whom God recognizes.

Abraham's faith in God was credited to him as righteousness, despite having no knowledge of doctrines like the Trinity.

Romans 4:9
Is this blessedness only for the circumcised, or also for the uncircumcised? We have been saying that Abraham’s faith was credited to him as righteousness.

While Muslims might be ignorant as to Jesus' divinity and Jews might be ignorant as to Jesus' Messiahship, judgment as to whether they are saved or unsaved doesn't belong to us.

James 4:12
There is only one Lawgiver and Judge, the one who is able to save and destroy. But you—who are you to judge your neighbor?

"Allah" is the Arabic word for God, used both in the Koran and in Arabic translations of the Bible:

While there is indeed violence in the Koran, there's more violence in the Bible:

I am not saying that Jews and Muslims should avoid receiving Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. What I am saying is that judgment as to whether they are saved or unsaved belongs to God alone.

 

.

 

I am not disagreeing as to whether Jews and Muslims should receive Christ as Lord and Savior, but their ultimate fate is simply unknown to us.

 

I am not saying that Jews and Muslims should avoid receiving Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.

What I am saying is that judgment as to whether they are saved or unsaved belongs to God alone.

James 4:12
There is only one Lawgiver and Judge, the one who is able to save and destroy. But you—who are you to judge your neighbor?

If God's Spirit blows wherever He pleases, who are we to judge the salvation of others?

John 3:8
The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.

Romans 1:20
For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse

Romans 1:20 says that the attributes of God are clearly seen, so that those who reject God are without excuse. This is referring to the creation as a natural revelation, open to all people, rather than a specific revelation in the Bible.

Abraham's faith in God was credited to him as righteousness, despite having no knowledge of doctrines like the Trinity.

Romans 4:9
Is this blessedness only for the circumcised, or also for the uncircumcised? We have been saying that Abraham’s faith was credited to him as righteousness.

 

Since I am not God, I plead ignorance as to whether Jews and Muslims will be saved.

Romans 1:20 says that the attributes of God are clearly seen, so that those who reject God are without excuse. This is referring to the creation as a natural revelation, open to all people, rather than a specific revelation in the Bible.



I believe that I have good reasons for not practicing Judaism or Islam, but judgment belongs to God alone.

 

Ben Shapiro is the reason why I started reading the Bible, after hearing Torah lessons on his Friday show. Because of this, I am not going to pass judgment as to whether Jews and Muslims are saved, but instead I will leave it to God alone.

Romans 11:29
For God’s gifts and His call can never be withdrawn.

If you want to know why I am a Christian today, blame Ben Shapiro.

According to the ADL, Ben Shapiro was the most targeted victim of antisemitic hate during the 2016 election, from both the right and the left:

I was raised Christian but I didn't start reading the Bible regularly until six months ago. I read the entire New Testament in high school, but I didn't start reading the Old Testament from start to finish until six months ago. I'm now in my thirties.

 

Are we reading the same Bible?

Abraham's faith in God was credited to him as righteousness, despite having no knowledge of doctrines like the Trinity.

Romans 4:9
Is this blessedness only for the circumcised, or also for the uncircumcised? We have been saying that Abraham’s faith was credited to him as righteousness.

If God's Spirit blows wherever He pleases, who are we to judge the salvation of others?

John 3:8
The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.

The gifts and calling of God are irrevocable, including our fellow children of Abraham.

Romans 11:29
For God’s gifts and His call can never be withdrawn.

Romans 1:20 says that the attributes of God are clearly seen, so that those who reject God are without excuse. This is referring to the creation as a natural revelation, open to all people, rather than a specific revelation in the Bible.

Even Ben Shapiro's family was targeted with death threats.
