GOD |   |
Eternal, personal, spiritual Being, as Father (Yahweh), Son (Yah'shua), and Ruach haQodesh (Holy Spirit) (Mt.3:13-17; 28:19; 2 Cor.13:14). |
Brahman is formless, abstract, eternal being without attributes. Takes form in a trinity as well as millions of lesser gods. |
YAH'SHUA THE MESSIAH |   |
Yah'shua is the only begotten Son of Eloah (God the Father) . He is Elohim (God) as well as man; sinless; and he died for our redemption (Jn.1:13-14; 10:30; 8:46; Heb.4:15; Mk.10:45; 1 Pet.2:24). |
Christ is just one of many reincarnations, or sons of Brahman (God). Christ was not the Son of God. He was no more divine than any other man and He did not die for man's sins. |
SIN |   |
Sin is proud, independent rebellion that separates man from Elohim (God). It is falling short of the standards Elohim (God) has established in His Word (the Bible) to men. Sin must be punished, and its consequence is death and eternal separation from Elohim (God) (Rom.3:23; 6:23). |
Good and evil are relative terms. Whatever helps is good; whatever hinders is vice. Man cannot help 'stumbling' over these obstacles as he strives to know himself. If he cannot succeed in this life, he may try again in reincarnated form. |
SALVATION |   |
Man is justified through the sacrificial death and resurrection of Yah'shua the Messiah (Jesus Christ) (Rom.3:24; 1 Cor.15:3). |
Man is justified through devotion, meditation, good works and self-control. |
