Story: The Grace of Christianity

 
An elderly professor of world religions surprised his colleagues
by declaring his commitment to Christ.

He explained: 

"It was as if I had fallen into a deep, abandoned well.

Muhammad came by and told me it was the will of
Allah that I be in this well, then he left.

The Buddha came by and told me if I would cease desire
I would cease to suffer in the well, then he left.

A Hindu teacher came by and told me if I was faithful in the well
I would escape through reincarnation, then he left.

Confucius came by and told me if I'd not tripped
I would not be in the well, then he left.

Jesus came by, saw me, and got into the well with me.  

That is why I am a Christian."
