Straight Path is rooted in Islamic, not in Christian teaching

Try this experiment and research yourself. Search ‘Straight Path” on the Internet and land to your surprise in Islamic territory.

I mean no disrespect to Islam; the truth is I was relieved rather than shocked by the discovery that the concept can be found in other religious traditions. Searching the term led me to Islamic literature, particularly a book entitled “Islam: the Straight Path” by John Esposito. More significant, the search directs you to passages in the Koran that explicitly talk about the straight path leading the believer to eternal life. To locate the Christian references to the straight path, I had to take a circuitous course.
