“More than 60% of born again Christians in America between the ages of 18 and 39 believe that Buddha, Muhammad and Jesus are all valid paths to salvation and over 30% say they either believe that Jesus sinned just like other people when He lived on Earth or aren’t sure, according to a new study.” - C.Today

Pretty much this means 60% of professing Christians are not Christians. Zero Christians believe Jesus is just one of many routes to salvation.

Edit to add: how many people participated in this survey? What was done to try to achieve a good sample? I’m not seeing a methodology section in the study: https://files.constantcontact.com/dbebe121701/f4881dec-45ca-4cdb-a997-5…

Views expressed are always my own and not my employer's, my church's, my family's, my neighbors', or my pets'. The house plants have authorized me to speak for them, however, and they always agree with me.

that our churches are full of people who are deceived into thinking they are Christians. The doctrine taught is woefully inadequate in most churches. Grace and love are the key doctrines most people live by, and so that leads to Jesus giving people a “pass” with other religions. They do not know the character of God in His holiness. That His righteousness prevents Him from giving a “pass”.
