There are countless religions and cults around the world, with beliefs more often than not, of man's creation. Even in what are considered 'Christian' nations that have dispatched missionaries around the world, the diversity of beliefs is astonishing. Of course, all claim to be based on the 'Word of God.' And all believe they have the truth, and go about preaching a 'gospel' according to any number of Bible 'versions.'
How many are there in 'Christianity' today who profess to be followers of Jesus? And then they vigorously pursue the task of making disciples to whom they teach their fleshly perception of 'Jesus.'
Sadly, the 'Jesus' followed by millions of people is a far cry from the Son of the Living God. Their 'Jesus' in no way resembles the Man who "emptied Himself, taking the form of a servant, being made in the likeness of men; and being found in fashion as a man, He humbled himself, becoming obedient even unto death, yea, the death of the cross." (Philippians 2:7-8) Instead, they 'see' Him only through eyes blinded by error. As a res ult, they have made a mockery of the One who gave His life that we might live.
