Yeah, that's sort of a problem, isn't it? How do we know that Jesus wasn't an invention of Satan; a diabolical scheme to get people to march straight into hell by believing in a false messiah. A devilishly evil plan, right?
Best of all, Christians willingly recruit others to follow them into hell--just as Satan planned, while simultaneously believing they are "saved". It's absolutely brilliant if you think about it.
Of course, there's also nothing to suggest that any of it--Jesus or Satan--is true. But, that's what you get when you try to use faith as an epistemology: failure.
EDIT: How sad that someone moved this to "Mythology & Folklore". My guess is a dishonest and frightened theist moved it out of the Religion & Spirituality section.

That's a logical contradiction, because BY DEFINITION (not by some arbitrary opinion), a Christian is someone who is following and obeying Jesus.
But what about YOU? Are YOU a follower of Jesus? Or do you just criticize those who DO follow Him? Is this a double-standard I see here? Did you know that the word that is defined by "double-standard" is "hypocrite". The answer is "A double-standard." The question is: "What is a hypocrite?"

Many, but most of the ones pointing fingers and saying the other ones will be destroyed, are actually the ones who will be destroyed.

I don't have enough information about others to judge them. That's God's job (and he wants his throne back).
