Honoring Easter: But Why Jesus? Because Only Christ Offers Universal Salvation

INTRODUCTION: Christ as Messiah: Happy Easter! But why do Christians claim that only Jesus Christ offers eternal salvation --when the world overflows with ‘saviors’? The Bible states every other savior is a copy, a hoax, a faux hero, an outright fraud. This is a jarring statement! But the biblical claim is that Jesus appeared as a unique, sacrificial, brilliant, loving and theologically exhaustive savior such that only God on earth as man could achieve.

We note a number of other religions propound pseudo saviors, found in the other biblically oriented religions--Islam & Judaism, etc. So why do these fail? For those alarmed at such exclusive claims, we honor the devotees of these religions while confronting them by pointing out the heresies involved. From the Christian perspective, on this Easter, we assert there is only one means to Salvation--Jesus Christ of Nazareth.
