Even in largely false religious systems, there exists some redemptive quality. Notice I didn’t say, “redeeming,” which would imply that people can be redeemed through a defective dogma, apart from Jesus.
Is Jesus the only way to God? A definite yes! But there’s a difference between different ways to God and different ways God uses to get people to the way.
God is willing to travel any road to find people who haven’t yet found the way. He stubbornly hunts for the hearts of people and even plants his invitations in less than perfect religious soils.
