Christians DON'T BELIEVE IN KARMA


Galatians 6:7-8 NIV
7 Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. 8 The one who sows to please his sinful nature, from that nature will reap destruction; the one who sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life.

Gálatas 6: 7-8 (Dios Habla Hoy)
7 No se engañen ustedes: nadie puede burlarse de Dios. Lo que se siembra, se cosecha. 8 El que siembra en los malos deseos, de sus malos deseos recogerá una cosecha de muerte. El que siembra en el Espíritu, del Espíritu recogerá una cosecha de vida eterna.

Law of Karma: The results of actions, which produce effects that may be either good or bad. It is derived from the Law of Causal Condition (Law of Cause and Effect).

As one sows, so shall one reap. According to one’s action, so shall be the fruit. Similarly, in the Law of Karma, if we do a wholesome action, eventually we will get a wholesome fruit, and if we do an unwholesome action eventually we will get an unwholesome, painful result. This is what we mean when we say that causes bring about effects that are similar to the causes.

The "Law of Karma" leaves God out of the picture. It also presupposes reincarnation which is completely anti-Christian. Having said this, it is inconceivable how many Christians routinely quote the word "karma" in their everyday speech as well as in the media. Sometimes, the word itself is not used, but implied, by such phrases as: "what goes around comes around."
