Question
42: Do you believe that it is OK to worship other gods (like Buddhists,
Muslims, Jehovah’s Witnesses, Mormons, etc.)?
Answer: NO! The god of the Buddhists, Muslims, JWs, Mormons, etc. is not the same God that we
worship. If you were to ask any of these
religions if Jesus is God, if Jesus has always been God, and if Jesus is the only
way to heaven, every one of them would unequivocally say NO! 1 John 4:1-3 gives us the following
test: “Beloved, believe
not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many
false prophets are gone out into the world. 2Hereby know ye the
Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that
Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: 3And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is
not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that
it should come; and even now already is it in the world.” Jesus Christ is the only way to Heaven (John
14:6). Muhammad is not another
way, Buddha is not another way, JWs and
Mormons also do not profess the eternal Deity of Jesus Christ so they are not
another way either. Jesus is the
only way and Jehovah God is the only God that is worthy of worship – all other
gods and not really gods at all.
