It’s Witness Wednesday!



Todd Friel is at Georgia Tech where he talks with students about their religious beliefs. These discussions highlight the key differences and similarities between Islam, Judaism, Catholicism, and Christianity, emphasizing concepts such as righteousness, forgiveness, and the afterlife.



Segment 1:



• Muslim student believes Islam is a fair and righteous path but admits she’s not currently fit for heaven.



• Student says righteousness comes by trying your best—not perfection—and hopes God will judge mercifully.



• Student learns Christianity offers assurance of heaven not by works but through Jesus’ righteousness.



Segment 2:



• Student explains Islamic modesty as empowering but admits she can’t know if she’ll go to heaven.



• Students husband, Amil, describes a works-based salvation—good deeds must outweigh bad, but no one is certain.



• Both contrast with Christianity, which offers forgiveness based on Jesus paying the penalty in full.



Segment 3:



• Jewish student says he’s “not bad enough” for hell but admits to breaking several commandments.



• Student learns how the Old Testament sacrificial system points to Jesus as the ultimate Lamb of God.



• Student is encouraged to repent and trust Christ alone for complete forgiveness—not by works.



Segment 4:



• Catholic student admits he’s broken God’s laws but trusts confession and penance to make up for sins.



• Student struggles with the idea that Jesus paid the full penalty, insisting on earning forgiveness.



• Student learns true salvation comes not by effort or priests, but by grace through faith in Christ alone.
