Is God my God? Is God Your God? Is God Our God?

By zevi770 · November 3, 2015

I recently heard that Prime Minister Netanyahu spoke about the problem of people taking exclusivity on God.

One of the most phenomenal things about Judaism is that to the best of my knowledge, it doesn’t say you have to be Jewish to get rewarded.

This is a phenomenal approach:

Not to put anyone down, but in Christianity, it’s be saved or go to hell, in Islam they say that when the messiah comes there will be 72 different versions of Islam and 71 will be going to hell, not to mention everyone else! (perhaps they were wrong by one : )

In Judaism there is a fundamental difference which is the reason why the other faiths make this colossal error.

If you look at God through human lenses you think God has an ego – I often laugh when I hear people speak about doing things for God’s glory – who says God needs his ego assuaged? – maybe he like a parent wants your glory?!? – the point is, if God does have a ego, therefore only those who assuage his ego… (hence the different “my way is right, everyone else goes to hell, because my way is God’s will.”)
