Too often we come across people who believe that all religion lead to the same god and that all gods are good. Many respect Jesus Christ in addition to their deities. Very few know who really Jesus Christ is. Hence, this ppt seeks to lead them to the fuller knowledge of who is and what Jesus Christ offers and on what terms. Please feel free to download this and use to evangelize among people who belong to different religious faiths. But this is not for sharing among those who belong to the Islamic faith. Be blessed and be a blessing. Nirmal Nathan, Trichy, India
