What do the wheel, the lightbulb, and Islam have in common? All three are human inventions! At first glance, this sounds like a very provocative thesis. But in this book, author Werner Gitt describes in detail how humankind, through ingenuity, builds its own bridges—away from the true faith in Jesus Christ and toward "other religions."
Humans have always been inclined to invent things that make life easier: tools, cars, smartphones. In doing so, they are (almost) without limits. Even when it comes to answering the soul's inner longing for eternity and quenching the thirst for something higher, humans devise a thousand other paths, religions, worldviews, and systems that take the place of the Creator God, from whom this very eternity was placed in our hearts. When a path is sought around God, the consequences are far-reaching. Conscience is not soothed, but numbed!
This book explains where the many religions come from and shows that not all paths lead to heaven, but that Christ, through the cross, built the only bridge from God to mankind!
