Why Good Deeds Can't Erase Sin
Does the Islamic scale of good deeds actually deal with sin? In this Christianity vs Islam comparison, we look at the concept of the Mizan (scales) and why weighing deeds isn't the same as true justice.
The Logic:
Islam offers a scale: Good deeds vs. bad. But weighing sin doesn’t remove it. If you rob a bank but then give to charity, the judge doesn’t let you go. The crime still happened. Real justice means the crime must be paid for.
The Gospel Difference:
Jesus doesn’t weigh your sin against your good works. He takes responsibility for the debt entirely. He doesn’t offer a scale; He offers a cleansing.
Next Up: If you are banking on the scales, wait until you hear what Muhammad said about his own salvation.
