Do not dilute Sanatana Dharma by attributing the Abrahamic faith to it. The Christianization of Hinduism is the greatest threat in trying to destroy it. We never said if you don't follow Sanatana Dharma, you will burn in hell forever. Christ said that. That statement is in direct conflict with Krishna, who said you will have ultimate chances in samsara, and eventually everything will come to me. Christ said only his word are the word of God. So you cannot believe these two statements at once. Christ was a rambling madman, who declared people who don't listen to him will be tortured for eternity. That is neither compassionate nor divine.

My knowledge of Bible is limited to the creation and flood story. Certainly statements like that are not acceptable. I don’t think those statements are being repeated in today’s churches. Old baggage is everywhere, possibly to protect itself in the ancient times. We need to discard that one which is not true and merge the one that is close to reality. Religion as a whole falling in the hands of uninformed people. If we continue to let it be that way that might lead to conflicts in the future. My idea is to bring the ones with open mind to the sanatana fold to make it stronger. Santana dharma is the truth there is no possibility of it ever changing.

@@kmarasakatlaExactly, such statements are not acceptable, but they are an integral part of Christian scripture. They are not "old baggage", it is written in every single bible that is in print in the world today. You cannot disobey them. The only way to heaven is by believing in Christ, the one and only son of the one true God. And the punishment for not doing so is hell. Atleast you know that much. If you try to integrate mythical stories of other faiths into our faith, you are only diluting our faith, not strengthening it. And they will only use your confusion to try and convert Hindus to their faith, saying see, even he agrees with us.
