The Source of Salvation

The essential difference between the religion of Jesus Christ and all false religions is the source of salvation. In the religion of Christ the source and power of salvation is wholly in God, received by faith. In false religions it is in self, and must be realized by crucifixion, self-immolation, evolution, or development. This is the test of Christian Science, Spiritualism, Theosophy, Buddhism; they are all religions of self-salvation, and are designed of the enemy to center men's thoughts upon themselves. The Gospel of Christ expects all of God, does all for His glory, and receives all from Him, ever developing unselfishness and being led out from little man to the great infinite God.
