“Does God accept the worship of all religions?”

CHAIRMAN: TIFFANY CHAN
SPEAKER: PASTOR IAIN DAVIS
SCRIPTURES : DEUTERONOMY 6:13-15

Sermon Notes:

• Why should God accept other Religions?
• If all roads lead to heaven, then there is no justice.
• Jesus is clear, nobody can come to God the Father except through the intervention of Jesus Christ.

Discussion Questions:

1. Is this a tolerant view of religion?
   
2. Living in Canada where there is a diversity of Religions, how do we live this out?
   
3. What are we worshiping other than God?
4. How can we return to Jesus?
