And yet, with all these gods, none have bothered to show themselves in centuries...perhaps millenia.

Those gods who says human sins are not true gods and those gods who doesnt changes from any truth or not changed from any truth are true gods because if god is changed then he lost from truth of someone and he lives according to the one who shows truth.

There has got to be only one God, because the absolute God is the Creator of all things, and everything and everyone else was created.

Jesus is presented as being the second person in the trinity. He never said that, NEVER, so he cannot be equal with the Creator.

Jesus said that his Father created the first man and woman Matthew 19:4-5

Revelation 4:11 says that the one who created all things must be given all of the honor and glory. He himself said that he will share his glory with no one else. Isaiah 42:8

Islam teaches that our Creator has no son. Islam therefore teaches a different God from the Bible.

Judaism has a written record of the sacred pronouncements of God.

It also has a written history of disobedience to those pronouncements and a later account of the rejection by most adherents of the only man who fulfilled all of the requirements of the Messiah.



Hinduism believes in many gods, and in also in one supreme God. Through are many gods and many lords, there is only one true God 1 Corinthians 8:5-6

Buddhism teaches that Buddha is the enlightened One. Statues are made for him, and he is believed to show the way to the truth. Jesus is the only way to the Father, and it is important to know our Creator, who is also the God of Jesus.



Christianity has a long, clear history that points to it as the only way to our Creator. Taking the Hebrew Scriptures, it demonstrates that Jesus is the only Messiah that has come, and will come.



The true God would have a record of his activities and promises that has become ultimately available to every human on this earth, and this is uniquely true of the Bible. The true God would have a way back to him that has an arrangement that acknowledges and addresses our imperfect nature, providing a way out of this condition that does not depend on traditional rituals, but on a change of heart that changes our lives, and encourages a life course of brotherhood and love. The ransom of Jesus Christ is just such an arrangement.



The true God would know us, and would arrange to leave the door open to us to repent from an evil life course in order to embark on a better life, everlasting life.

Firstly, Buddhists don't believe in a deity, Hinduism is a polytheistic religion, but Christianity, Islam & Judaism are all Abrahamic & Monotheistic religions.



I am a devout Christian & I personally believe that every single bit of evidence points to the Christian God being the only one who actually exists.

There is only 1 true God and He is written about in the original texts of the entire Bible both Old and New Testaments. Hebrews 11:6 says in the original Greek, "It is impossible to please God without strong belief (pistis) for anyone who comes to Him must believe that God exists and that He rewards those who ardently seek Him". Therefore it is not the belief or the mistranslation "Faith" that pleases God but the clear meaning of the sentence is that God wants us to find Him. Throughout the Old Testament we are told to seek God's "face". Again we have a mistranslation of the original language which this time is Hebrew. In the Hebrew we are told to seek God's panim. Panim has 2 definitions, one of which is face and the other is presence. Again, how can we tell which meaning the author means, Well, God is omnipresent and has no form. Therefore God has no face so the author must intend the meaning of panim to be presence that He desires. Now to answer your question. One thing that helps is to pray constantly with devotion into every form we see ( by form I mean the form of a rock, a tree, a mail box, etc. "Blessed be thou O Lord" to God who is present in everything. When you do9 that long enough and experience the awesome Presence of God every minute of the day, you will be able to tell that who you are experiencing is the one true God. He is the God of the original words of the Bible. Not some of the words but all of the words!.

You might consider that that which we call God is both part of the universe and existence and beyond it. If that is the case, then all human religions are an effort to understand that principle. The question for you becomes, which expression of the Divine speaks to me. I would only add that those who have found a satisfying part of that Divine spark can be identified by their behavior towards others: are they kind, compassionate, open to serving others, caring for the less fortunate, etc. since all beings are an expression of God as you are as well. We all just need to awaken to that reality.

Now as for as for almost all of the other religions they worship a multitude of different gods for a multitude of different reasons.................... Now I know that my God Jehovah does answer my prayers and other people that pray to Jehovah............ I also know that my God has many different names but he is and forever will be just one God..........

Jesus said The Kingdom of Heaven is WITHIN YOU, that applies to every Religion, you are the Temple, the Spirit of God is what your Soul is made of, and until humanity can figure that out, they will always look up to the clouds and give thanks to God, when all they need to do is close their eyes and go within ourselves.

We are all the embodiment of God in the flesh, but we sure don't act like it.
2017-04-14 17:21:19 UTC
That was the question I had when I was first first drawn to seek after God.

It made sense to me at the time to ASK HIM. Try it yourself, ask sincerely.



It was logical to me that they can't all be right .. and that all the different

variations of Christianity can't all be "right" ~ there had to be a first way.

All the others came afterwards ~ made up by people, who thought their

own ideas were more important than what Jesus Christ had taught.



His written word warned that people would come later with "doctrines

of devils" composed to satisfy their own whims and lusts ~ but the one

thing none of the fake religions can produce is the Holy Spirit .. That is

the seal of God that no other religion can have or substitute in any way.



When I prayed to God and asked Him how I can find the true church, He

sent people - during the first week - unplanned by any of them, but they

all gave me the same information about the Holy Spirit.



I witnessed the power of the Spirit when I saw people healed by the laying

on of hands, and their illness "bound" in the name of Jesus Christ .. and

there were other situations in which the Spirit of God intervened. I have

seen miraculous things that can't be explained away by any excuses.

I knew without doubt that the living God had heard my prayers and gave

me answers .. He "guided my steps" to hear the right people, and I have

never been in doubt for over 30 years now. Events unfolding in the world

right now are all in line with prophecies written in the scriptures.



For you, I recommend you read the book of Acts - to read how the first

church began, and what those people taught each group of new converts.

And I recommend the gospel of John, who was a very close friend of the

Lord Jesus Christ. He knew who He was .. God incarnate (John 14:6-10)

All those deities are real. You pick, any of them can benefit you.



But I think your problem is that which particular standard or set of knowledge is to be used to review and decide, yes? That one, also you pick. even in the same religion, you can get multiple and yet conflicting version of POV from different schools.



I am not suppose to pick for you, your hearts & mind, not mine. Lots of home work to do for that I am sure.

Consider religions of the world and you will find that only Christianity has a God who came down in human flesh and walked among His creation and who offers Salvation in Heaven as a free gift. You do not have to do anything but have faith in Christ to receive eternal life. The Lord's sacrifice for all on the Cross of Calvary paid mankind's sin and He became our Savior on that Cross. He only asks that we believe, because His word says, "That without faith, it is impossible to please God." God set up all the laws of mankind and all the laws of nature. Nature aligns in order, but mankind is given the ability to choose. When we choose the Lord Jesus, we choose life. Without Christ, there is no life, but eternal darkness hereafter.



Consider the Word of God, the Holy Bible, that the prophets of God have been 100% accurate in all of their predictions. Only God can tell the future and only God could write the Holy Bible. The prophets only wrote what they were told to write by the Holy Spirit within them. It is an unlearned and uneducated man that does not know the Word of God, the Holy Bible. Jesus is called the Bread of Life and the Water of Life and both are essentials for mankind to live. Scripture says, "Man cannot live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God." The Words of God in the Holy Bible feed the spirits of men and God's word renews the mind to right thinking.

God exists beyond all religions. I guess religions are formed by spirits. Spirits want their own group of people, own language and own culture and civilization. God is a mystery even to spirits. Every religion wants to say that their God is true. They were possessed by that spirit. They are living for many generations with the same spirit. A possessed spirit, day by day, gets stronger and dominates completely. At this stage they cannot move away from their beliefs. Even if they do there will be always some sort of uncomfortability in their minds because of their longtime spirit. God is a mystery even to spirits. That's why you are able to see atheists even at this miraculous era of God. I have understood this fact only after I have started to talk with the spirits. Spirits are everything for human beings. Spirits are separate elements. A human being is not a single spirit. A human being during his/her life time is living with many spirits which have joined one by one since birth. They are knowledge, skills, feelings, emotions, interests and everything. Even thoughts are not your own. For example, when you want to take a decision on a subject, one after another the spirits think and you just listen, choose or reject the ideas which they transmit to your mind through your brain in the form of thoughts. A human being is just a robot made of flesh, bones, tissues etc., and a toy of the spirits for their games.



God never bothers who believe Him. God cannot watch each and every human being at the same moment. That's why He had created the spirits to watch, guide and determine the destiny of the human beings from their daily activities, talks and thoughts too. Your past determines your present and your present determines your future. God has given freewill to all creatures including human beings. According to this, all human beings have all right to live a life as they wish. But if it happens to be bad and hurts someone, they have to face the consequences. These consequences are created by spirits. It's a natural system. After death no one lives in any form. Heaven and hell are only for spirits. A soul is nothing but an energy needed for the functionality of a body. It is not a spirit or anything else. A mind is just a computer's mind. After the destruction of a computer completely you will not get it's mind. The same is the case with the human beings.

The thing that is different is: the God of the torah, bible and koran has no idols. All other gods are idols.



+Apparently, Christians were called atheists by the Romans because they believed in an invisible God instead of the Roman pantheon of gods/idols.

+I think all religions believe in the same higher power, just different viewpoints.

+Even atheists believe in "the laws of physics", which in itself is the higher power/God.

Perhaps they are all true in their own way. Perhaps the real Prime Mover is so far beyond our understanding that we have come up with 'lesser deities' to comfort us. Yet these lesser deities also give glimpses of the True Deity.

Those worshiping the one true God calls him by his true name Jehovah. They also are a people who practice love and kindness to all no matter what race or background because God is not partial.

They are not involve in violence or war of any sort and follow Jesus words at Matthew 24:14.

They strongly believe that God's Kingdom is the only hope for mankind to bring about true peace on earth.

Depending on what the person believes will depend on the answer you get on what religion you should go for. As a person who loves to learn about religions because I believe that I can't pick the best religion unless I understand what the religion stands for and in tales. It is a tough decision, but your the only one that can make that choice.



That and if you actually study the religions you will find that actually at least half of the religions believe in the same God, but they have different views on who Jesus is or if we should worship him. That and there is also a religion (Catholic) who believe that Mary should be praised too. God is God and always the same in those religions. There actually is no different God. Good luck with your choice.

People worship many things. But the Bible tells us that there is only one TRUE God. He is the creator off all.

God has many titles but has only one name. That name is JEHOVAH.

In most Bibles, God's name has been removed and has been replaced with the titles LORD and GOD. But when the Bible was written, the name Jehovah appeared in it some 7,000 times (JHWH in Hebrew).Psalm 83:18.

That is the big question.



Hinduism lets you choose from hundreds of Gods, and sort of sees everything as God.



Buddhism doesn't believe in Gods.



Islam has many standout problems, including encouraging violence and murder in some parts of the Quran. History shows it seeks to take over the world and force all into submission or death.



Christianity has the father Yahweh, who is love. He forbids the use of the sword and revenge. He teaches to love even enemies. He sent Jesus in the flesh to teach us, prove who He is, know and understand us, become the sacrifice for our sin and ticket to eternal life, and also to connect us more closely to God.



Many people witnessed and wrote of His teachings and miracles. Many witnessed His resurrection. There is much proof of His existence.



Yahweh is personal. We can sense His spirit within us, always of love and wisdom. He confirms His truth to our spirit, and reveals Himself to us within. We know it's real and true. Many millions of people have found this relationship, and many will talk about it. The proof is in the experience.



The USA was built upon escaping religious corruption and freedom to worship Him freely. No other country has been so blessed, safe, and peaceful.



Many, many prophecies in the Bible have come true. Many about Jesus, long before He came.



It's generally our biases against Him, and endless distractions and illusions, that keep us from looking all His evidence directly in the face... and seeing it is real. The Bible is dependable, verifiable, and alive with His spirit, power, truth, blessing, and peace. That's just the tip of the iceberg.



You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. --Jeremiah 29:13

Worship of the only true God has the power to unite people. When Israel was God’s chosen nation, many sincere Gentiles were attracted to true worship. For example, Ruth abandoned the gods of her native Moab and said to Naomi: “Your people will be my people, and your God my God.” (Ruth 1:16) By the first century C.E., a large number of Gentiles had become worshipers of the true God. (Acts 13:48; 17:4) Later when Jesus’ apostles began traveling to distant places with the good news, other sincere people were united in the worship of the true God. “You turned to God from your idols to slave for a living and true God,” wrote the apostle Paul. (1 Thessalonians 1:9) Does worship of the true God have such uniting power today?



Skeptics insist that it is wrong to speak of “true worshipers” or “the true God.” They may feel that way because they are unaware of any source from which truth can be learned. But seekers of truth from many backgrounds have realized that worship is not a matter of preference. The only one worthy of our worship is the Creator of all things—Jehovah God. (Revelation 4:11) He is the true God, and he has the right to decide how he is to be worshiped.



To help us discern his requirements, Jehovah has communicated with us through his Word, the Bible. Nearly everyone on earth today has access to the entire Bible or portions of it. Moreover, God’s Son said: “If you remain in my word, . . . you will know the truth.” (John 8:31, 32) The truth, therefore, can be known. And millions of honesthearted people from different religious backgrounds are courageously embracing this truth and are being united in true worship.—Matthew 28:19, 20; Revelation 7:9

How can you "tell" or how can you "know"? The same way you "know" anything, by the evidence in fact. You know the Creator by His Word. Which part of Genesis can you refute with your own evidence, for example?



Which part of the evidence from the Bible of the origin of matter and the origin of life can you refute with your own evidence, or show evidence of some other god that has created anything? What part of the eyewitness account of the Bible is NOT evidence supported by scientific method and burden of proof? None. Fact is there is no empirically supported scientific claim that in any way is in conflict with Christianity. The same cannot be said for evolution, abiogenesis, or Big Bang.



Show us another book or writing with more evidence of ancient history, more truth in confirmation from historical records and science than the Bible. Science has been confirming the Bible for hundreds of years, and thus confirms Christianity.



Asserting there is no God based on your alleged lack of evidence is an example of the argument from ignorance fallacy which because it is fallacious is by definition illogical.



All the evolutionists have to do is to come up with one piece of evidence that proves evolution. If evolution is right and creation is nonsense, evolutionists have the media at their disposal to prove to everyone that evolution is true. However, they cannot do this. The evidence overwhelmingly supports exactly what the Bible says. It is a shame that creationists do not have the same media coverage to explain to the world the overwhelming evidence for the truth of Creation.



Even the scripture acknowledges many gods.. The First Commandment 'you shall have no other gods before me; would be nonsensical if there were no other gods. What distinguishes the many pagan gods from the one Creator God is that the pagan gods are created entities or beings, while the creator God is not. Aristotle's discourse on the Prime Mover demonstrates that there can be only one Prime Mover (Creator God) so your likely objection for many creator gods, was answered about 2300 years ago, by a Pagan Greek Philosopher.



The Bible is not a science book, but I'm not aware of ANY instance, where the Bible DOES touch on science, that it has been proven incorrect.



By what measure do you test the evidence, by what authority? Science sinks or swims on evidence.. Truth of science DEPENDS on burden of proof (evidence). If you can find a better way to form a belief, be sure to let us know.



Evolution is more buried in propaganda, fraud and known errors than any empirical evidence. The real sad part of it is known errors and frauds that remain in school text books decades and even centuries after they have been revealed as errors or frauds.. for this reason the notion that evolution is science or scientific is laughable--myths and fables of unfounded, unsupported OPINION for humanist/atheists to pretend to be scientific.

Hey idk if you'll see this among all these other tons of answers, but I hope u do: Some native Americans call God the Great Spirit, Hindus call God Brahma, Jews call God Yahweh, Muslims call God Allah. But they are all just different understandings of the same one true God. That is what we believe in Islam.



Allah literally means "the God" but some anti-Islam and anti-semitism people try to make it seem like Allah and Yahweh are some other evil gods, when Christians really believe in the same God as the Father. Even pagans and polytheists always have one main God, the Creator; we believe that is the same one true God but their sin was to make up other gods as well.



Hope that helps :) Peace

The true God created the nation of Israel. The God of David and Solomon. The God who spoke through the prophets and composed the Bible by the inspired Word of the Holy Spirit.



The God who came into the world, born of the virgin Mary, to save mankind from sin and death; who was crucified by Rome, died, was buried and rose after three days in fulfillment of prophecy.



The God who sent the Holy Spirit to dwell in the hearts and minds of all believers, who answers prayers, and who counsels the faithful.

2017-04-14 12:02:23 UTC
How can a person know which religion is right?

(1) On what are its teachings based? Are they from God, or are they largely from men? (2 Tim. 3:16; Mark 7:7) Ask, for example: Where does the Bible teach that God is a Trinity? Where does it say that the human soul is immortal?

(2) Consider whether it is making known the name of God. Jesus said in prayer to God: “I have made your name manifest to the men you gave me out of the world.” (John 17:6) He declared: “It is Jehovah your God you must worship, and it is to him alone you must render sacred service.” (Matt. 4:10) Has your religion taught you that ‘it is Jehovah you must worship’? Have you come to know the Person identified by that name—his purposes, his activities, his qualities—so that you feel you can confidently draw close to him?

(3) Is true faith in Jesus Christ being demonstrated? This involves appreciation of the value of the sacrifice of Jesus’ human life and of his position today as heavenly King. (John 3:36; Ps. 2:6-8) Such appreciation is shown by obeying Jesus—sharing personally and zealously in the work that he assigned to his followers. True religion has such faith that is accompanied by works.—Jas. 2:26.

(4) Is it largely ritualistic, a formality, or is it a way of life? God strongly disapproves of religion that is merely a formalism. (Isa. 1:15-17) True religion upholds the Bible’s standard of morality and clean speech instead of weakly going along with popular trends. (1 Cor. 5:9-13; Eph. 5:3-5) Its members reflect the fruits of God’s spirit in their lives. (Gal. 5:22, 23) So, those who adhere to true worship can be identified because they sincerely endeavor to apply Bible standards in their lives not only at their places of meeting but in their family life, at their secular work, in school, and in recreation.

(5) Do its members truly love one another? Jesus said: “By this all will know that you are my disciples, if you have love among yourselves.” (John 13:35) Such love reaches across racial, social, and national boundaries, drawing people together in genuine brotherhood. So strong is this love that it sets them apart as being truly different. When the nations go to war, who have enough love for their Christian brothers in other lands that they refuse to take up arms and kill them? That is what early Christians did.

(6) Is it truly separate from the world? Jesus said that his true followers would be “no part of the world.” (John 15:19) To worship God in a manner that he approves requires that we keep ourselves “without spot from the world.” (Jas. 1:27) Can that be said of those whose clergy and other members are involved in politics, or whose lives are largely built around materialistic and fleshly desires?—1 John 2:15-17.

(7) Are its members active witnesses concerning God’s Kingdom? Jesus foretold: “This good news of the kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations; and then the end will come.” (Matt. 24:14) What religion is really proclaiming God’s Kingdom as the hope of mankind instead of encouraging people to look to human rulership to solve their problems? Has your religion equipped you to share in this activity, and to do it from house to house as Jesus taught his apostles to do?—Matt. 10:7, 11-13; Acts 5:42; 20:20.

Vague not enough information.... Depends on your perspective... Do you think there is a God?

Your truth may not be the same truth that other people think it is.

If in the amount of knowledge that you have and understand you can imagine that there is a God then you have a place to build from.

In order to know the true God you need to know that you are a spiritual being.

Your connection to the true God you will know because you have Gods spirit inside you.

That does not make you a god its that spirit that is your connection.

Many cultures and religions lay claim to a God.

Even though they say they worship one god and that god is the same god

They really are not saying the same thing.

When you were baby you had everything you needed that spirit inside you was all you needed.

God the creator who gave you life and his eternal spirit knew you before you were born.

Nothing changed, although after time we became educated in the ways of the world and moved away from God.

We decide to do things our way.

You see its the spirit that gives life.

Get quiet and ask God to show you what it is that you want to know.

When you know God you will have your answer.

God isn't a religion or a tradition His Spirit lives in each of us

Listen, you are going to get a barrage of loud-mouthed preachers here claiming their 'god' is the best. There have been thousands of gods dreamt up by man throughout human history. They merely served as a false security blanket, an imaginary friend. As the human race becomes more educated, they will no longer look to a vengeful deity amidst a natural disaster and instead the weather channel. We don't need imaginary friends to know from right or wrong. We don't need imaginary friends to achieve our goals. We don't need imaginary friends to comfort us. We do it on our own. One day, we will outgrow the very thing that has been holding mankind back from its full potential - religion/theism. Not being allowed to question anything and depend on blind faith will never allow the human race to reach its full potential.

Salam, sure I'll help ya. I am Muslim and will give you 5 of many reasons to believe in Allah (swt) and the message within the Noble Quran.



1. You will not burn in hell for eternity and will be saved, all your past sins will be forgiven and all your good deeds remain, so essentially you would be a better Muslim than me and would be able to go high in heaven as we believe there are 7 heavens in Islam one on top of another and the highest one (jannah firdaus) is the best one and everyone gets what they earn. You will get whatever you desire in heaven and whatever you wish.



2. Those who follow Islam 100% never fall into depression (google it), that is because they believe in the hereafter and understand that Allah (swt) is the one who provides them with hardship to test them and that they will achieve a higher heaven if they pass the test (meaning the faith is never broken and they are patient) they repent for sins and give thanks for what they have. It is said (in scripture) that when a father lost his son, an angel reported it to God (swt), and God (swt) asked: "what did he say?" The angel replied: "To Allah (swt) we belong and to him we shall return." God said: "Build him a house (in heaven)." So you see such people feel Allah's (swt) love in hardship and tough times that they do not feel depressed at all.



3. You will be welcomed by your brothers and sisters with open arms at a mosque or anywhere, you will be treated as one of their own family, they will invite you for meals and help you in your affairs, you will feel at peace in Islam. Many people who felt empty and suicidal stated when they converted that they felt so much happier and not sad anymore and they have us to rely on who will help them.

4. Islam will protect you from living a sinful life and from the bad things of this life such as drugs and fornication and ill-talk. It will make you a better person and it will protect you from bad people and sinful things.



5. Allah (swt) will turn to you in mercy and increase your wealth and prosperity if you ask of him after prayers, if you walk to Allah (swt) he will run to you, if you reach your arm towards him, he will reach his arm twice as long towards you, and he will reward you for your patience and suffering (if you are suffering) and he will make life easier for you and guide you on a straight path to heaven.



If you're interested, feel free to email me from my profile or post in the Ramadan section of yahoo answers: society and culture > holidays > Ramadan.



I hope you convert to the only religion God (swt) will ever accept, if not, then my job was only to recite to you the message. Hope I helped. :)



Let me point out some flaws for you in Christianity.



1. How can a trinity exist? WHY does an all knowing and all power God need to split himself up into 3 anyway to accomplish anything? Consider this; a business breaks up into three business and splits assets because one business run by 3 owners runs more slowly compared to one owner (Allah swt). Do you still consider these 3 businesses as one business? Consider this, what if Jesus (pbuh) had a son? Would there be four Gods in the universe? What if the Gods Christians worshiped kept having sons until there was an entire species of Gods, would Christians worship 1000s of Gods as one God? Jesus (pbuh) was a man and you can understand his story in the Noble Quran and hadith, he did not die, GOD can't DIE. No one died for your sins, everyone is responsible for their own sins, that includes the sin of prophet Adam (pbuh), we did not inherit his sin, he was only allowed into heaven by Allah (swt) to learn a lesson, he was predestined for Earth 40 years before his creation. So when Satan duped them as God (Swt) willed, he kicked them out of heaven but not as punishment, he forgave them (as stated in the bible as well) so how can he punish them and forgive them? (bible contradiction), nay, he was predestined for Earth to learn humility, determination, gratefulness, and to repent for sins and (for us as humanity) prove to ourselves we are worthy of being in heaven or hell.



2. Why do Catholics need a priest and to "confess sins" to this priest? Confessing sins is actually a sin, and an all hearing and all know God can perfectly hear your repentance at your own home by yourself without a medium. Also consider these corruptions in the bible, the prophet Lot (pbuh) in the bible is described as a man who got drunk and had premarital s3x with his two daughters and impregnated them, this is who Christians idolize! this is not the real prophet Lot (pbuh), the real Lot (pbuh) was a righteous messenger of God (swt) and did not drink and have premarital s3x. Other prophets (pbuh) in the bible are described like this because Satan corrupted the bible and the Torah and the psalms which were previous revelations from God. He wants people to think "well since the prophet did it so can I." so he successfully dupes them into sinning.



3. Also Jesus (pbuh) never even claimed to be God directly in the bible at all, the Christians attribute humane things to God (swt) such as having a son or a wife. He is above such things. Also Satan does not Rule Earth as is stated in the Bible, this is a joke, Satan is only an instigator and a trial sent by God (swt) to us so that we seek refuge in God and protection from Satan. Allah (swt) is the ruler of the heavens and the Earth and all in between.



So read the Noble Quran and post here in the Ramadan section so we can help you be guided dear sister/brother.

Those of The Nation of Israel(all Jews) and those of The True Church commissioned by The Creator God(the one True God) both follow a commission from The Creator God... ALL of the other "religions"/ideologies follow man-invented false gods....



ONLY those of The Body of The True Church will enter Heaven... even those of The Nation of Israel must be of The Body of The True Church to enter Heaven.... but.... the Nation of Israel is still bound by The Law of The Creator God as given to them by God... they have a separate covenant with God........ however.... both those of The True Christian Faith... and those of Judaism follow The One True God....... .......... none of the rest will be found in Heaven.......

God exists completely beyond all of the high, mighty, inadequate, and lofty words

and dutiful suppositions that believers and their unintentional contradictions seem to think describe Him.



To suppose that every expressive, illuminating, and important word that humanity owns

can describe `God` and be utilized in an accurate form of worship, is in complete error.



The God that you will never find in a book, is the true `God`.

he True God's name is Jehovah, Isaiah 42:8 says, "I am Jehovah. That is my name;I give my glory to no one else, Nor my praise to graven images." And Isaiah 54:5 says, "For your Grand Maker is as your husband,

Jehovah of armies is his name, And the Holy One of Israel is your Repurchaser. He will be called the God of the whole earth." Though Scripturally designated by such descriptive titles as “God,” “Sovereign Lord,” “Creator,” “Father,” “the Almighty,” and “the Most High,” his personality and attributes—who and what he is—are fully summed up and expressed only in this personal name. Psalm 83:18 says, "May people know that you, whose name is Jehovah, You alone are the Most High over all the earth." The true God is real and the fact of the existence of God is proved by the order, power, and complexity of creation, macroscopic and microscopic, and through his dealings with his people throughout history. In looking into what might be called the Book of Divine Creation, scientists learn much. One can learn from a book only if intelligent thought and preparation have been put into the book by its author.

Nature is a great way to start. When you take a close look at the way humans were created, and take out all of the birth defects, how much do you feel God cares about us? Do you really feel that, in order to lead a healthy life, that we require the ability to see all of the different colors that we can see? Do you really feel that we need to be able to taste as many different tastes as we are able to taste? Would it not be illogical to think that God does not care for us? We were created to enjoy things. Would it make any sense if God were to allow the creation that He cares so much for to be tormented forever for something that they had only done for a few years? Does that also sound just? Now think of this: would it not make sense that someone who cares so much for His creation to place the information that we need into an easily accessible place? That is what the Bible is for. If you truly wish to find the true God, read His word the Bible. Study it closely. It is reliable. If you truly search it through, you will find this to be so.

Jesus Christ is Lord in matthew 24 Jesus Christ spoke of the abomination of desolation from the prophet Daniel. The Abomiation of desolation is mention in Daniel 11 and Daniel 9 also I believe one other place. Well is it a future event or a pass event? 7 and 62 weeks it says the annointed on will be cut off and the city and the sactuary will be destroyed. Well this happen in 70 ad Jerusalem and 2nd temple was destroyed. So we know 69 weeks are fulfilled. There is debate among Jews and Christians about who the annointed one is Christians believe it was Jesus Christ who was cut off. Jews believe it was an evil king. The last part says for one week he will make a covenant for one week and half way through he will set up the abomination of desolation. If it was in the past than the 70 prophecy would be done and you would have an end of sin and everlasting righteouness. If it in the future it means Jesus Christ said the truth in Matthew 24 and it will occur during the third temple.

Let the Goddesses and the Gods, at least the Ones which CARE whether or not YOU believe, prove themselves.



Get a bunch of plastic poker chips, and write the names of as many Gods and Goddesses as you can think of, one per chip.



(Just to make it SUPER interesting, write the names of a few comic book heroes and DEAD movie stars on there, too.)



Drop them all in a large sack, and perform this Ritual:



Chant, as sincerely as possible "O ye Gods and Goddesses, O ye of INFINITE POWER! I beseech Thee to USE Thy Power to cause the marker with YOUR name on it to land, written side UP, and those of LESS powerful deities to land written side DOWN!"



Then dump the sack.

Discard all those face down.

Place the survivors into the sack, and repeat the ritual chant.

Dump the sack.



Repeat until only ONE remains.



That's got to be the only one who CARES enough to get involved, and which has the POWER to win every toss.



Because you want a Goddess or a God which CAN and WILL demonstrate Power, when the chips are down.

You should look into different religions and see what your most comfortable in praying too. My personal opinion would be Christian because my God has given me blessings after blessings for praying to him. Whenever I'm in need, I ask him. But you also have to pray for thanks. It's totally up to you and no one can force you to believe in anything except for YOU. I hope your happy with whatever religion you choose. God bless.

God there is no god but He, the Living, the Everlasting. Slumber seizes Him not, neither sleep; to Him belongs all that is in the heavens and the earth. Who is there that shall intercede with Him save by His leave? He knows what lies before them and what is after them, and they comprehend not anything of His knowledge save such as He wills. His Throne comprises the heavens and earth; the preserving of them oppresses Him not; He is the All-high, the All-glorious. - al-Quran 2:255

Well, the Buddhism that came out of Communism, which is the primary Buddhism now is Atheistic. They don't believe in God, only in becoming ascended to a higher state of existence. In other words, they believe we all become like mini-gods.



Hindu is very similar to Greek Mythology, only it's still a world religion . . . so, yeah.



Judaism, Christianity IS Judaism if Jesus of Nazareth was really their Messiah. If not, then yeah, Judaism is proven only in how their God helps them when they are faithful. Otherwise, all you have is their history recorded in whatever writings they still have left and every Bible and Torah printed.



Muslims are just about exactly the same logic as Mormons. God screwed up when writing His Word to the people and people screwed up when translating it because God can't stop people from doing that for some reason, so He needed to write a new different Word. So God picked some random guy that woke up one day and decided that he was the one true prophet of God sent to give the true Word of God that was without errors.



One said that he was talking to a demon till his wife convinced him it was an angel. The other probably just lied to see if he could convince people to abandon Christianity for a totally made-up religion.



Now, if we look at what becomes of the people who follow their religion, then we can clearly see Mormons aren't so bad in this day and time . . . till we see people who are actually following the faith as it is written. Then we see that black people are evil, that marrying and having sex with preteens and teenagers is okay. Oh, Islam allows for this too, only Muhammad's child bride wasn't even a preteen, she was 6.



So, maybe Mormons, but not really if you follow it as God supposedly gave it to the true prophet.



What about Islam. Well, now we have some real examples. Entire nations are Muslim. So, lets see, how does Islam fair in practical reality? Well, as far as empiricism goes, Islam is likely to rule the world one day, and your children's children, or some generations on will either be Muslims or they will be dead. It's just common sense. They keep fighting, the other keeps tolerating instead of fighting back, and eventually, they'll break through and defeat their enemy, and impose an Islam conversion or death upon everyone.



That's what they've done in all of their nations to date. No reason to think they would be any different after taking another.



Now, Islam in practical reality, women are actually just above property. And apparently they don't wear hijabs as a matter of religion, but rather because if they don't, their husbands can beat them until they do. Women are generally second-class, and children apparently are regularly sold into marriage with old men. In some nations, apparently they've accepted the idea that having sex with boys is okay because they aren't women that you aren't married too, and thus it's not a sin somehow. It's pretty crazy, but no sex till marriage thing is a pretty solidly accepted thing in Islam in most of those nations. It's just that, well, Muhammad married a 6 year old . . . so, yeah. Of course, if a man rapes a woman he's not married too, in many of those nations, she's more than likely going to be punished for the shame of having sex before marriage while the man may or may not get a slap on the wrist.



Then lets look at what kind of life Muslims make for themselves. They are constantly being murdered by each other and oppressed by extremist sects that think their version of Islam is the truth. The fact that they are so ready to blame others for their problems and join these extremists sects indicates a lot of suffering on the part of the family. After all, when people aren't suffering, it's actually pretty hard for extremists to recruit because they don't really have much rhetoric that motivates enough people to participate. That's why in America and Europe, we get these little pockets of violent actors that never really go anywhere, and are primarily left wing and brainwashed. Look at Detroit, left wing policies actually do cause people to suffer. It's why all of the black communities, which are all exclusively controlled by Democrats finds so many who readily support extremist violent ideologies like the Black Panthers and BoweL Movement movements.



So, to be perfectly honest, Islam, practiced as it Muhammad says is to follow Sharia Law. And many of those nations, their people still suffering under totalitarian regimes and violent sects don't even get as strict as Sharia Law, and it's still pretty bad. So, to follow Islam as Muhammad says, it really is untenable, and would lead to world-wide chaos and never-ending war, and inevitably probably extinction of the human race if everyone actually followed it as they're supposed too, as Muhammad said too.



So, that leaves Christianity. Lets look at the worst of the worst first because that's literally the only place we can go in order to cherry-pick so that we can disparage Christianity. First we assume, of course, that Jesus is the Messiah of the Jews as He claimed to be, and thus was rejected because the Jews happened to be in a time of rejecting God's ways, and thus was crucified and rose again. That is a far-fetched story right? Yeah, as far as humans are concerned, but we're talking about the true God here, not the true human. We would scarcely know it 2000 years later if some random individual in some small region just so happened to rise from the dead. They wouldn't even know it then, much less 2000 years later. In fact, we only know about the story because 12 random guys from different walks of life got together and lead a team of believers to go around talking about it to anyone willing to listen.



Now, if we look at the worst of the worst, we're talking, not the Crusades no. The Crusades were a legitimate response to the fear of Islamic aggression. I say legitimate because Muhammad's Islam is Sharia Law Islam is more akin to Al Qaeda's and ISIS versions of Islam. Muhammad slaughtered entire groups of people when they would not convert to Islam. They intended to take over the world if they could. England responded to that to not only protect Israel, the Christian holy sites, and other Christians being slaughtered, but also to preemptively prevent Islam from overtaking Europe and eventually England.



No, I am more so talking about when the Catholic Church implemented harsh punishments for small things and would not tolerate any kind of criticism and did not allow people rights to follow Christ as they saw fit and murdered large groups of people simply for not accepting what the Catholic Church decided was the will of God. I am talking about the Salem Witch trials and other such evils that people claimed to be doing in the name of Christ.



First we look at them. They did some horrendous things. But the truth is, they weren't following the Bible as it was written. No, instead they were following their own desire of what the Bible should say rather than what it actually said. You see, in other religions, if you follow the religion exactly as it is written, you cause innocent people to suffer. However, in Christianity, it is when you DON'T follow the religion as it is written that you are prone to cause people to suffer. When you try and reject portions of what is written for your own greed or selfishness, when you think you are wiser, that is when people are caused to suffer.



To follow Christianity on a fundamental level, as it is written involves a lot of debate, but even amidst that debate, it requires you to pray for your enemy, to love your enemy, to give to those in need, even to the point of giving the shirt off your back. It requires that you treat them as you would have them treat you. It requires you focus on what God wants from you first, and then focus on what you want. When you commit violence against another for any reason other than defending the innocent, you act in a way that God has said is wrong and antithesis to what His Word is.



Suddenly, you act wrongly to another and are not forgiving, you are standing on the outside of Christianity, not the inside. Whatever you do is by your own doing and has nothing to do with God nor Christianity.



Essentially, what I'm saying is you cannot claim to do what is wrong by your own religion and then somehow say you follow that religion.



And probably the most convincing of all, to me at least, is no matter how evil and badly people have acted and claimed to do it in the name of Christianity in these random spurts of evil throughout history, in all of it, in all of the corruption, the interference of the church with the state, and vice-versa, all claiming to be in the name of Christ, even slavery and racist treatment of blacks and Native Americans, in all of it, in all of our propensity towards evil as human beings world-wide, and in all of the evil people have done in the name of Christ . . . only Christians throughout all of history found a workable lasting freedom and founded the most progressed nation and eventually nations.



That, my friend, could have only happened by the power of God faithfully leading His faithful to a better day, so that no matter how evil or corrupt people got, His faithful inevitably won-out, and thus, through them, so did the whole world.



That's why I love to hear Atheists talking about how evil Christianity is, like it's the most evil thing in all of human history, because there's no way such evil an corrupt people would ever have managed to find freedom and what America was. They basically prove Christ is real and IS God by their own rhetoric. Only the power of God could have made it happen for the sake of those who were actually not evil and were actually faithful.

That is like saying, "There are Democrats, Republicans, communists, fascists, socialists...and I don't which one is the true political party. How can I tell?"

Education. You study each one and research its beliefs. Do you believe there are many gods? If so, you won't make a monotheist. Do you believe there is but one God? If so,you won't make a polytheist.

Too many people have a knee jerk reaction and reject a faith they know nothing about. Education comes before faith. Faith has its roots in understanding.

The true God is the One who truly lives.

Anyone who delves into 'existence' becomes aware that 'existence is NOT living'.

Therefore since Jesus of Nazareth had risen from the dead then He surely must be our God.

If God is there he/she is not watching you very second of your life for deeds and wrong doings. He/she has to manage the entire universe without a super/duper computer.

Donot worry do what so ever is liked by you , earn honestly for a living and do charity for human cause.

God concept was developed when Man was another animal and civilisation was in her natal stage. To keep the people under control and to form a society, the UNKNOWN and imaginery character was created by some wise persons in different parts of our planet. call it by any name but some have gone radicals in recent time and killing is their pleasure for a better enjoyment after death and that too taught bymisled religious heads.

That is for you to decide. Everyone has the right look inside themselves and decide what they think the truth is. I'm not saying it's easy, it took me almost 18 years to figure out what my religious views were, but once you kinda get an idea, it's amazing how much you will learn about yourself and others.

To start from the Old Testament, Father GOD also known as the “God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob” claimed the following:



• Isa 43:10 Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: BEFORE ME there was no God formed, neither shall there be AFTER ME.



• Isa 43:11 I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no saviour.



In the New Testament the Apostles and Disciples of Christ attest to the following:



• Mat_1:23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.

• Luk_1:47 And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.

• Luk_2:11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.

However, they concluded:

• 1 John 5:20 And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son JESUS CHRIST. This is the true God, and eternal life.



Paul identified his God when Jesus Christ introduced Himself to him as he was on the way to Damascus:



• Act 9:4 And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?



• Act 9:5 And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I AM JESUS whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks.



And from Paul we read the following:



• Heb 9:16 For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator.



We all read in the Old Testament it was Father GOD who made the

“testament of salvation” in Genesis 17:7 to Abraham and “his seeds”. But now, ALL nationalities are included by virtue of Gal. 3:28-29.



We all know Father GOD is a “spirit” that He cannot fulfill His testament with “His own death”. So, again this is revealed to Paul:



• 1 Timothy 3:16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: G0D was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of

angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.



(Bible translations like the NIV changed “GOD with Jesus Christ”, others with “He”, and in the Catholic Confraternity Duoay version it is omitted.)



Again, by divine revelation, Peter identified JESUS CHRIST in the following:



• Mat 16:15 He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?

• Mat 16:16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the CHRIST, the Son of the living God.

• Mat 16:17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.



From the foregoing, very clear God is identified! It is JESUS CHRIST performing two (2) roles.



Primary role:



• JESUS is the GOD

• JESUS is the creator being the FATHER in the flesh

• JESUS is the Saviour (or CHRIST)

• JESUS is the one performing miracles

• JESUS solely deserves worship



Secondary role – to complete GOD’S plan for salvation now as “Son of God”, a model in “spiritual humility”.



• Jesus is not God

• Jesus is not the savior

• Jesus cannot perform miracles

• Jesus does not deserve worship



Romans 8:29 For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate TO BE CONFORMED TO THE IMAGE OF HIS SON, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.



Is it hard to compare this identity of JESUS CHRIST with a certain person, the HUSBAND of his wife and the FATHER of his children?

Listening to the world news, you have probably noticed that bad things are sometimes done in the name of religion. Not all religion originates with the true God. (Matthew 7:15) Indeed, much of mankind has been misled.—Read 1 John 5:19.



Nevertheless, God takes note of sincere people who love what is good and true. (John 4:23) God is inviting such people to learn the truth from his Word, the Bible.—Read 1 Timothy 2:3-5.



How can you recognize true religion?



Jehovah God is uniting people from many religious backgrounds by teaching them the truth and by teaching them to love one another. (Micah 4:2, 3) Thus, you can recognize practicers of true religion by the way they care for one another.—Read John 13:35.



Jehovah God is uniting all sorts of people by means of true worship.—Psalm 133:1

True worshippers base their faith and their way of life on the Bible. (2 Timothy 3:16) They also honor God’s name. (Psalm 83:18) And they advocate God’s Kingdom as the only hope for mankind. (Daniel 2:44) They imitate Jesus by letting their “light shine,” doing good to their neighbors. (Matthew 5:16) True Christians can, therefore, be recognized by their neighborly visits to people’s homes for the purpose of sharing the good news of God’s Kingdom.—Read Matthew 24:14; Acts 5:42; 20:20.

Easy answer. The one true God cannot lie. Titus 1:2

Many accuse Almighty God of lying but invariably they are proven wrong. Sadly some of these refuse to accept proof and continue their crusade to prove God lies.



The very first one to bluntly call God a liar is the original serpent Satan the Devil (See Gen 3:1-5) Who told the truth? Is Eve still alive somewhere? Have you seen her at a 7-Eleven? Then he added to the lie by causing people o believe they have someing inside, an immortal soul hat cannot be seen or felt but cannot die and you will go to heaven to be with Jesus when the body dies. Yeah right. If you believe that hocum I have some beachfront property in Phoenix, Arizona I will sell cheap.

The Supreme God. All the rest fall under that rule in one way or the other. Christians have The Father, The Son, and the Holy Spirit. Others have any range of relationships with and through the Supreme God which all are a part of, one way or the other. That is why all paths lead to God sooner or later.

Most Christians, Muslims, and Jews have some seriously mistaken ideas about God, and linguistically peculiar hangups about God's name, but we all worship the same God, יהוה, or يهوه, or in English, Yahweh or Jehovah.



For example, just because some Christians hate other Christians so much that they accuse the other Christians making up a spelling of God's name that all Protestants had accepted until the 20th century, excusing themselves to do so because it contains the letter "J", even while they call God "Jesus", doesn't mean they're not worshiping the same God as the other Christians, or as Jews, or as Muslims. It simply means that they also put faith in bigoted hypocrisy.



Meanwhile, many Buddhists don't believe in any god.

2017-04-12 23:41:12 UTC
That is an excellent question because it acknowledges that as the Bible says, "there are many lords and many gods" in this world. In fact, the Bible even acknowledges that Satan the Devil is the god of this system of things (1 John 5:19). But the Bible gives us the answer on who the true God is....At Psalms 83:18, it identifies that one as being Jehovah. He is the Creator and Sovereign of the universe. Even though various forms of false religion have popped up over the centuries, Jehovah has always blessed his people with an understanding of the scriptures and their identity of LOVE. So what religion does NOT kill their neighbors by means of participating in wars and civil conflicts..........does NOT encourage rebellion and disobedience to the government.............does not compromise their Christian beliefs even when it's not popular.....are known throughout the world for bringing knowledge of Jehovah to the human family? Jehovah's Witnesses make God known to others and help them appreciate why He is the only true God. John 17:3.

It's easy to tell a false god by the actions of it's believers.



Look at christianity, it's got people picketing soldier's funerals holding sign's that say, "God Hates Fags!". It's got people shooting up black churches and during civil rights they lynched black men for talking to white women. 78% of hate groups in America only accept christians as members. Would a true god inspire such hate?



Look at islam, they fly planes into buildings and blow up markets and places of worship. Can that leave you thinking that these are the people who have found the one true god?



If, on the other hand, you can ignore the hate and violence, then you have no chance of knowing truth.

2017-04-15 23:00:12 UTC
There can be no one true god. There are over 1000 religions that claim they have the one true god. Assume number 419 has the one true god. Then numbers 1 to 418 AND numbers 420 to 1000 all worship false gods. Now assume number 420 has the one true god. Then all the rest, including #419 must be false. In fact, 999 are also telling you #419 is false.So what are the odds that the one you pick, is true, when 999 are telling you it is false.



Jesus said the kingdom of heaven is within you, and I believe this, yet I am not ANY kind of christian. Find the one true god within yourself. No one else can find it for you.
2017-04-15 16:16:33 UTC
For me it is simple, they are all false, residing in the imagination of people. If you believe in 'God' and you want to find the 'true' one, ignore all of the hype and the stuff others tell you, look inside yourself and ask questions of yourself. Only then will true enlightenment be attained. DO NOT ACCEPT THE GOD OF OTHERS, only accept YOUR God.

There is ONE God over them all. That is the one you should love and serve and realize that all the stuff you have on this planet is not the reality, but a 'place' for you to live, in a body , and challenges given to you while here. Life here is like playing a game and you live the game in a body. When the body dies, game over, unless you must come back again. The only way to free yourself from this world permanently is to let go of everything in it. Be homeless, don't work, forget about school, pray and be in touch with GOD at all times, don't worry about food to eat or what clothes to wear. Don't own jewelry or tons of great things or a lavish home and strappings of wealth. Be humble. Let everything go. Because that is the only way to quit the game, and be free to go home to God. So it doesn't matter how many religions there are out there, the only thing you must do to be free and return to God, forever, is to let go of this world, and be one with God . Love and forgive others who hate you for no reason. ( because you're not rich or dressed great or throw lavish parties, or you don't have Doctorate diploma's dotting your office walls) Find the ONE true God and let everything else go.

"Muhammad is the messenger of Allah; and those who are with him are strong against Unbelievers, (but) compassionate amongst each other. Thou wilt see them bow and prostrate themselves (in prayer), seeking Grace from Allah and (His) Good Pleasure. On their faces are their marks, (being) the traces of their prostration. This is their similitude in the Taurat; and their similitude in the Gospel is: like a seed which sends forth its blade, then makes it strong; it then becomes thick, and it stands on its own stem, (filling) the sowers with wonder and delight. As a result, it fills the Unbelievers with rage at them. Allah has promised those among them who believe and do righteous deeds forgiveness, and a great Reward." (Koran)

1. Allah is the Creator of the Heavens and the earth and whatever in it.

2. Allah has no father, no son and no spouse.

3. Allah is not begotten nor does He beget.

4. Allah is neither a male nor a female or a plural being.

5. Allah is Singular, Allah is One.

6. Allah is not immutable or adoptable or transferable.

7. Allah is Sovereign Lord. He does not share His Sovereignty with any body.

8. Allah cannot be seen in this world or heard directly.

9.Allah's Glory and Power can only be imagined.

10. Allah's Messengers and Servants include all prophets from Adam down to Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus and finally last Prophet Muhammad. Peace be upon all prophets.

11. Allah does not sleep, slumber, eat or reproduce.

12. Allah sees and hears all things at all times.

13. Allah knows the hidden thoughts of men within their hearts.

14. Allah is Infinite , all else is finite. There is nothing like Him.

15. Allah is Omnipotent, Omnipresent and Omniscient.

16. Allah is Independent, all else is dependent. Allah exists, all else sub-exists.

17. Allah is Absolute. He is by Himself.

18. Allah is for all people -white, black, yellow and brown.

19. Allah is for all geographical areas and for all times - past, present and future.

20. Allah is Eternal, He was there before time began and He will be there after it finishes.

21. Allah is not Jesus, Buddha, Ram or Krishna.

Conclusion, Jesus is not God. He was a prophet and a Messenger of Allah, one in line with many other prophets who were sent by ONE TRUE ALLAH at a particular time, at a particular locality and for a particular community.

When there is a bowl of fruit in front of you-

you get to chose. Which one is best? Which one is the better one for you? Be careful because only 1 is fresh. The others are wax or rotten. So how do you know? By observing the truth of each, you can immediately dismiss the rotten ones. The wax ones are harder to identify. They look real enough but there are clues to them as well.



Bottom line is personal investigation. You can not escape doing the work. It matters which one you choose doesn't it?



Would you automatically eat the one someone else told you to? Or would you want to make sure it was the good one before you commit?



Jesus tells us He is the one and only Real Deal. 'Taste and see that I am good'.

Don't take my word for it. Check Him out for yourself. No one can force you to do anything. You decide. Choose well.

The God of the Bible. All the others want you to buy/do something to get to their god.

Only in Christianity did God do for us what we could not do for ourselves.



This is what God has done for you.....



John 3:16-19

16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. 17 For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.

18 “He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.



If you are condemned, or If you do not yet know God, do this just as you are, without pretense and He will help.



Because....

Rom 3:23

23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,



And...

Rom 6:23

23 For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.



Rom 5:8

8 But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.



To receive God's free gift....



Rom 10:9-11

9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.

10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

11 For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame.”



Pray this...



Father, I accept your gift of forgiveness for all my sins because of what Jesus has done for me.

Help me in my time of need and show me the way I should go.

I ask in Jesus' name. Amen



You are no longer a slave to fear, but are a child of God. Colossians 1:13

13 He has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love,



2 Corinthians 5:17

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.

First you have to decide, do you believe there IS a God? Then, next step, is the God you choose to believe in a God of Love? If so, no other God in all of the human mythos displays more love than the God of the Bible, through His Son Jesus Christ. No other God left his throne in heaven, to come down here to be one of us, to suffer all the cruelties of this life as a poor man, and to die for our sins, take our punishment upon Himself, if they will but accept Him as their Lord and Saviour.

Also, no other religious book in the world is like the Bible --- put together by over 40 authors, over the course of more than 1500 years, and none of it contradicts any other part of it. If there seems to be a contradiction, the contradiction is either in your translation, or in your understanding. Also, no other book has the prophesies that the Bible has. Particularly in Daniel and Revelation. Even time prophecies that predicted over 500 years beforehand where the Messiah would be born, and when He would be anointed. Such as Daniel 9:25. If you understand the Biblical prophecy key that one day equals one year in prophecy (Ezekiel 4:6; Numbers 14:34). And the dream of Daniel 7 predicts all of human history from his time right down to the end. And fits perfectly. Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece, and Rome (being divided like two legs, in Eastern and Western Rome), and the toes of the statue being the ten barbarian kingdoms of Rome, all of which have modern names and modern kingdoms, like the Anglo-Saxons (England), the Lombards (Italy) and so on. No other religious books has prophecies like these, that we with hindsight can see have been fulfilled perfectly. With yet more to come.

Jews, Christians, and Muslims worship specifically the same God. Sikhs have the same God as the Muslims, and the Hindus. Do all 5 of these religions worship the same God then? It seems so. Does this extend to other religions? There is no reason to suppose that it isn't the same God for all of us.

Atheism is the least plausible of all theologies. , there are a lot of wild ones out there, but the one that clearly runs so contrary to what is possible, is atheism

That's very easy to do. Take a bunch of stones and write the name of a different god on each one. Then throw them all up in the air at the same time. The true god will keep his stone from falling. If all the stones fall then you know it's time for you to get an education.

God is the universe, eternal energy. We are all metaphorically "sons of God". However, God is not all good, it just has two sides. They aren't completely black and white, it goes in all shades of grey and all colors of the rainbow, but seriously, God isn't good, it's the Jesus invention of a Good God, to make the devil separate, and something to avoid in your head. Because, if you let evil take over, you will become a Terminator.

Christians, Muslims, and Jews all worship the God of Abraham.



The answer though is that you can't know if ANY deity is real because its a matter of faith rather than fact and you just shouldn't worry about it so long as you're living a positive life.

You cannot really say whats the real GOD! being a muslim, i strongly believe that our only GOD is Allah. With due respect to all other religions, we beleive in our god only. So it totally depends on what you want to believe and isuggest u to believe whatever GOD you want!

Honestly I don't know, but as a Christian there's only one God. There was a time where I was having doubts that there was a God above us. Until I prayed one night and he give me answers. I couldn't believe it myself, it was shocking because what I prayed for was not even done within 24 hrs. I got on my knees crying and I thank him and ask for forgiveness for doubting him. This is just a short story why I believe in my God.

People are probably going to disagree with me, but there is truly only 1 God. He is the same God in every religion people just dont realize it. God is not bounded by religion. He doesn't care what your religion is , he cares about whats in your heart... He is A God of unconditional Love. God of the entire Universe. LOOK around you at the trees, animals, and rivers. what do you see? Thats God. He is within us, he is of us, he is in every living thing.

We all have a spiritual nature. When people begin to understand that something important is missing from their life they usually look for God.

Christians place their faith in the God of the Bible. Christianity is all about love. I can't speak for other religions but I can tell You that God loves You.

"they all worship different Gods"

Doesn't that tell you something? All religion is man made BS. Developed for controlling the masses.

The true God is the only God that can prove that He exists. All You have to do is genuinely repent of your sins and accept the love of God the Father, the grace of Christ the Saviour and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit and the true God will make Himself Known to you in a completely first hand unique and personal way. Are you ready to truly repent of your sins my friend?

first,put aside all that you have been taught, then when you sit quietly for a minute and think about what you think is "real" and what you think is "true", you will not have answers told to you by other people. you will have to be able to "clearly reflect" the true nature of your own life, then be able to find a teaching which corresponds to that, or do what many people do, start your own religion or not.



(I always felt that if I had super-power, I wouldn't immediately run out to the store and buy a costume. - Stan Lee)



original life exists in us. by original life, i mean the true self we understand when we are conscious of our "original" self. eternity exists and life and death arise from it, and return to it. we are born and we die, the in-between time is spent trying to achieve the consciousness of our self, the self that is the truth of our existence.

illusions about the truth, are not entirely separated from the truth, as they originate in a relationship with the truth. so while we have an intuitive idea it exists, often we can not penetrate to its reality, this puts our understanding of our self in the lower-levels of consciousness.

buddhism explains that we have ten-worlds of spiritual awakening, the buddha nature at the highest level of consciousness, and the lower nine-worlds.

when one practices meditation it is to realize the highest state of the "original" self, it is not something outside our self, but it is our self.

for example: christianity says the true self is outside the person and removed to an otherworldly existence, but buddhism says that the "true" self is our own "original" life.

original life and the eternity of the universe are expressing the same understanding of the self as it encompasses the meaning existing in birth and death.

in buddhism, there is the physical truth of our daily life in the cycle of life and death, while the eternal truths of eternity and "original" life are considered spiritual; the middle way is the integration of the two ideas in the one entity of our "life" itself.

in reality, there is no separation of our self in daily life and the "original' life we inherently possess, delusion about it or the illusions arise, when we think our true self is separate from us.

the buddhist practice of meditation is upon the original self of life, and the creation of this higher value in our daily life. true buddhism is the chanting-meditation of "nam-myoho-renge-kyo". it is identified as the "original-self", the "dharma-nature", the buddha-nature", and daily life is identified as the saha world.

so, in reality, the saha world is the enlightened land, when we realize our own 'buddha-nature". that is called enlightened.

Good question.

Let me ask you a question before answering yours.

Are you pretty confident in observing the reality in which you live?

Now sure there are many unknowns, I'm not being mystic or esoteric but rather asking you to acknowledge of truth itself aka reality, what's real.

Once you delve into Truth itself without the intention of extraordinarily amounts of knowledge or Wisdom but just take notice of what's true & what is an illusion, a deception, a lie ETC

When one exercises this scientific approach (s)he is using Spiritual discernment.

Biblically this is seeking Christ because he claimed he was the

Truth

The way

The life



That's a pretty bold & seemingly bizzare proclamation.

However, when the individual such as yourself does this they were certainly come to a great realization that will surely change their world for the betterment!

The one true God is in the Bible. Read His word and you will find all the truth you need right there. I know it may be a bit confusing but go to a church near you and ask the pastor any questions you may have. Pray to the one true God and ask Him for help. He will answer your prayers. Most religions are based off the Bible but are twisted and people want you to believe thier gods but know that there is only one true God and He created the whole universe. I know it's a lot to take in at once so just start with the beginning of the Bible and work your way through. Jesus will help you understand Hid word.

There is one God, since the definition of God is Creator. We all see different aspects of Creator though. The answer is All are partly in the right, and all are in the wrong.
