A brilliant Theologian once said that truth can be revealed in many different ways.
Only stupid people would believe that truth has a single path alone. I believe Jesus Christ not because he was foretold before his birth, he came and died, performed miracles, healed the sick and raised the dead - those are petty magic tricks which could be done to ancient people - masses. What makes me impressed about him is how he LOVED everyone PERIOD.
I'm sure, Jesus would have kissed the cheeks of Buddha or Krishna or Muhammad once they see each other - not because of accepting their superiority but because a TEACHER of MORALS and ENLIGHTENMENT would love to hang out with people who teaches the same thing.
Know your God beyond the scriptures, for it would give you wisdom bigger than a book.

Through doubt, the people are being destroyed. One who recognizes that all spiritual paths lead to the One shall be emancipated. One who speaks lies shall fall into hell and burn. In the entire world, the most blessed and sanctified are those who remain absorbed in Truth. One who eliminates selfishness and conceit is redeemed in the Court of the Lord. -Sikhism
My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. - John 17:20-21
"By the declining day, Lo! man is in a state of loss, Save those who believe and do good works, and exhort one another to truth and exhort one another to endurance." - Quran 103:1-3
