Do we get what we deserve? Karma vs the Gospel, Christian Questions, Moments that Matter

While both Karma and the Gospel emphasize consequences for actions—“you reap what you sow”— they do diverge significantly in their foundations. Karma, is a complex, often impersonal law of cause and effect, sometimes spanning multiple lifetimes through reincarnation. In contrast, the Bible teaches a single human life followed by judgment in accordance with divine grace and forgiveness offered through Jesus.

Christianity offers clarity, direction and divine support, while karmic systems often leave individuals to navigate consequences without memory of past lives or a defined path to enlightenment. Ultimately, the gospel is a more compassionate and purposeful framework, culminating in eternal life through Christ, rather than endless cycles of rebirth.
