Am I CLOSE-d to God?
Half of our planet believes in God . .
Christians believe in one God!
Muslims believe in the same God!
Belief in God and being CLOSE-d to God is not the same.
Some think they get to GOD through another, like:
Saints x
Priests x
Statues x
A Special Person x
The long way around leads to a DEAD END!
“Surrender, obedience, sincerity to God”
(meaning of 'Islam')

Mark 12:29 — KJV
The Quran records Jesus ﷺ as saying:
وَقَالَ ٱلْمَسِيحُ يَـٰبَنِىٓ إِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ ٱعْبُدُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ رَبِّى وَرَبَّكُمْ

“O Children of Israel, worship Allah,
my Lord, and your Lord.”
The message of all prophets is always the same:
The One and Only God!
The question becomes personal:
Am I really CLOSE or CLOSE-d
to GOD?
Or am I taking the long way around?
That is a long trail, and it only leads to a
A simple saying explains it good:
“Closer to the Source —
