Can Buddhism and Christianity Both Lead to God?

Any church that proclaims Jesus Christ as the way and that also tries to blend Christianity and any other religion is no longer a Christian church at all; take a look.

I don't see the problem here.. everyone can believe in whatever they want. Your way to look at the bible can be different for someone else and its perfectly fine that way. If one wants to mix christianity and buddhism, its his personal choice.

@aznboy1122 Go to my channel and see the video entitled "Jesus and the Buddha, can a person follow both?"

[aznboy1122]

@bzel333 I have watched it but it seems that in your attempt to find the differences between the two religions, you forgot that some people might not have the same interpretation of the bible or of the Buddha's teachings. Your understanding and interpretation of the bible and scriptures, although legitimate, are YOUR interpretation and suit your own faith and belief. Someone can call themselves christian and still adopt key elements of buddhism like the noble eightfold path in their life.

@aznboy1122 Did God intend the Bible intended to be understood? Can it really mean different things to different people? I will agree that many people interpret the Bible wrongly and possibly some of what I believe it says may be incorrect, However, one cannot be devoted to the Buddha who denied there is a God and Jesus who claimed to be the one true God. One can not have it both ways. The 8 fold path has truth in it, but it is man centered and is not intended in any way to glorify God.

@bzel333 a person is given the choice between two religions or saying that both can lead to God. Rather,the church and the ministers presented in your video simply feel that it is appropriate and fitting to them to have some elements of buddhism in their christian faith? Is that such a bad thing? If one wants to mix all kind of elements of other religion to their own christian faith and they are happy, why not? Nobody in this world knows everything about a particular religion, not even the pope

@aznboy1122 The central element you are missing is that Buddhism is focused on the teaching, it really wouldn't matter if it was found out that the Buddha never really existed. But, if Jesus never really existed and never really died at the hands of the Romans in the first century, then Christianity is worthless, it doesn't mean a thing. But, if Jesus really did what the gospels say he did; then bow down and worship him only. Any thing else is idolatry.

I think the word you're looking for is "syncretistic" rather than "synchronistic". But maybe not?

@bzel333 "Did God intend the Bible intended to be understood?"

Your God probably intended human beings to be good people . . . but that didn't work out either.

You have an interpretation of the word "God" that differs from the interpretation of other Christians, such as myself. Buddhism denies the existence of the particular God which you believe in, but there are other conceptions of God which cannot be denied.

Budha is not a God nor Budhism has God. Budha is a teacher, and the philosophy of his teaching is about understanding life, understanding oneself, understanding surrounding. Everyday, we live in a world of hatred, desire, crime...etc..for ex.. when one hates someone how does one feels, or when one wants house so bad how does one feels. The world can't never be changed unless we understand more about the truth of life, so calm one's desire, calm one's hatred... One recieved from what one had done

@bzel333 Well if God didnt intend the Bible to be understood then we have a little problem do we? Second of all, yes, the bible can be interpreted in different way because things are not always as clear as black or white. That is why different christian church would have disagreement on divorce, abortion, homosexuality etc. If the bible was a clear or that there was a worldwide accepted interpretation of it then it would be different. You video, i believe does not present a situation where
