Glen Beck’s Incoherent Inclusivism

Glenn Beck: “For as long as man has known God, he has come here to Jerusalem to touch the mantle of the Divine. Three faiths, three paths to God…

Islam: “O followers of the Book! do not exceed the limits in your religion, and do not speak (lies) against Allah, but (speak) the truth; the Messiah, Isa son of Marium is only an apostle of Allah and His Word which He communicated to Marium and a spirit from Him; believe therefore in Allah and His apostles, and say not, Three. Desist, it is better for you; Allah is only one God; far be It from His glory that He should have a son, whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth is His, and Allah is sufficient for a Protector.” (Surah 4:171)

Judaism:  Then the high priest tore his robes and said, “He has uttered blasphemy. What further witnesses do we need? You have now heard his blasphemy. What is your judgment?” They answered, “He deserves death.” Then they spit in his face and struck him. And some slapped him, saying, “Prophesy to us, you Christ! Who is it that struck you?”(Mt 26:65–68)

Peter: “And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.”(Ac 4:12)

Paul: “How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching?”(Ro 10:14)

Jesus: “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”(Jn 14:6)

“Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few.(Mt 7:13–14)

    Hi!

    I do believe that Jesus is the only way to heaven…
    I think Glen Beck is just appeasing blatant (and violent) anti-Christs like Judaizers and Muzzies.

    Thanks and GBY!

      Unfortunately, GB has been deceived by the Mormon cult into thinking he is a Christian. The problem is the Mormon god is not the God of the Bible.
