Tab,
No, I did not know that. What I meant was that all major world religions capitalize in some way on the true spiritual laws that exist. They just explain them in a different way and attribute them to another god or prophet or christ or whatever. The basic behavioural outcomes of various religious faiths are very much the same, they just attribute it to something different. Jesus doesn't take the place of Islam, or Confucianism, Hinduism, Buddhism, or Taoism any more than it does it's own Judaism. The New Testament, the Gospel of Jesus Christ is the final word. He is the Christ. Yes that means that the God of Abraham and of Isreal is the Father, but many of the teachings changed because of Jesus. Sin is not atoned for in the same way since. There was no forgiveness through Christ before the Christ.
