It is amazing to me that each belief system(Christianity, Judaism, or Islam) think is the right faith for humanity. If a person read the history of each belief system has created wars that have destroy humanity in many nations. If each one is serving a G_D who is gentle, loving, merciful, graceful, forgiving and a savior of the whole world. Why such a hostile respond to a person from a different belief system or mob mentality of an attack.
Reminds me of the mob that attacked Stephen because he was following JESUS who was teaching a different belief system from JEWS. Acts 7: Stoning of Stephen
[h=3]The Stoning of Stephen[/h]54 Now when they heard these things they were enraged, and they ground their teeth at him. 55 But he, full of the Holy Spirit, gazed into heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God. 56 And he said, “Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God.” 57 But they cried out with a loud voice and stopped their ears and rushed together[b] at him. 58 Then they cast him out of the city and stoned him. And the witnesses laid down their garments at the feet of a young man named Saul. 59 And as they were stoning Stephen, he called out, “Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.” 60 And falling to his knees he cried out with a loud voice, “Lord, do not hold this sin against them.” And when he had said this, he fell asleep.
It is the Holy Spirit that changes a person heart and belief not man. I heard someone say the following, " I read scriptures to that person for thirty minutes and he or she rejected the scriptures because that person did not believe."
It is the power of the Holy Spirit to transform that person because the seed has been planted by the Sacred Word. The person cannot get the Glory which belongs to JESUS and not to man. It is in Holy Spirit timing which might be ten minutes to years. Most Christians did not accepted Sacred Word over night or the calling of JESUS Christ( the Anoint One). So why do Christians expect others from different beliefs to accept their faith instantly at this moment? Is it in the Power of Holy Spirit or Man's flesh of what he has done!
