We all have so much in common, we all believe in the same God, we Christians and Muslims and Jews are like three daughter religions of Abraham so to speak. Is it possible to live together and have Peace?
Thank you for your answers

Get Religion outta the U.S.A. and allow FREE-Thinking again. This manifest called The Bible or Quran or whatever religious manuscript you follow is not a semblance of order that WE THE PEOPLE have accepted, rather we rejected Kings and Kingdoms to become The Greatest Nation. So while you worry about the here-after because The Books you read THREATEN you with eternal hellfire and DAMNATION-you also exposr our great country to the wrath that ALL RELIGIONS HAVE CREATED FOR THEIR PEOPLE! OH NO? Name one religion that has ever formed a government that continues to thrive following their God!

Do they have missionaries that travel to 3rd world countries to improve the lives of those people and do they contribute to other charities like that? Like other religions?

i believe all religions are corrupt, Some individual churches and mosques may have a form of righteousness but none of them are true. there is only ONE Faith, and it can only be classified by purity and obedience to the ONLY TRUE God.

The bible tells us that in the end times that many false Christ shall be preached and that other gospels will be preached. The Gosple of Christ is simple. It is good news. Peace between God and man. Many are preaching a new gosple that is not the gosple of Jesus the Christ. So in this hour it behoves us all to make sure we are on the right path and in the right faith. There are common elements that all cults use to blind the eyes of the members in there from of churchs. The main from is exclusion from other churchs and punishment for searching out the truth mostoften. Also it often is forbidden to even research your own church. We as christian have to alway be watchful of false teaching and also be watchful of practices that do nto line up with the bible scripture which God has given us for our common good. God does not want any decieved. He loved all people. So i am going to ask you some question in just a second. About common practices that show a cult and not a church of God.

My vote goes to scientology, since the Christian churches I have been to, do not require money for membership.

I've been in the worship ministry since i was 6. Im on keys. From one church to another because we moved places twice. 6 months ago i voluntarily asked my pastors if i could go off the worship ministry for a while because i was having problems coping with fact that my ex was the drummer and he left for a year and he's back again. i needed to settle myself for a while so that i could perform better as a musician and for the Lord and i got back in the ministry after 3 months. ive been back for only like 3 months in the ministry and i need to go off again because my review classes for my nurses licensure exam are scheduled every sunday's because i have hospital duties on the other days and classes on the remaining days. ill be graduating from college and finishing my degree this march. somebody will be taking over on the piano for a while but he, too, might have to leave the country soon for his work. should i feel guilty? after my review and if God wills i passed i may also leave country

We escaped MONARCHIES to create this country-Kings and Kingdumbs-yet you would follow a king and have him rule here again-only to save YOU-kinda self-serving and hipocritical-isn't it?

For example, Tibetan Buddhist practice includes a host of practices and beliefs which stem from the embracing of Buddhism by an existing Tibetan culture, said Tibetan aspects being additional to the fundamental essence of Buddhism. Is there a tradtion of Buddhism which manifests almost entirely as a simple practice of the fundamental teaching of Shakyamuni Buddha without incorporating a bunch of extraneous incidental cultural overlay?

"Not everyone that saith unto me 'Lord Lord' will enter into the Kingdom of Heaven, but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in Heaven."

Does this mean that words are not as important as action? Does this mean that keeping the commandments is paramount? You cannot impress Jesus with nice words if your life does not measure up?

But wait! My cousin did a special thing at a Baptist church, similar to saying 'Lord Lord' -- and they have told her that she is saved. Totally saved.

Do the Baptists know something Jesus doesn't? Perhaps they do -- would anyone care to illuminate this topic?

The Jw make people who want to be baptized answer 80 questions. Could you show me a apostle of jesus stating that you have to pass a test to recieve baptism? Please give a scripture on it.
Other strange teaching and cult prictices of the JW.
Women must submit to Watchtower elders. Women cannot pray in the presence of men without a hat. Only officially approved sexual practices are allowed in marriage. You must not own wind-chimes (they are for chasing away evil spirits)*. You cannot purchase Christian products (books, music, plaques, pictures etc.)
The Watchtower organization is God's prophet on earth today. God is not omniscient "all knowing". God is not omnipresent
The Holy Spirit is only for select Jehovah's Witnesses.
God only speaks through the "Governing Body" in Brooklyn, New York. Only Jehovah's Witness prayers are heard by God. You must never enter a church building. You must never attend a church service. You can never question what is printed in Watchtower literature.

They come to your door to try and convert you to their way of thinking and expect you to follow their way. the make me sick. I told them last time they came to my door that they are a cult, and they of course denied it. I just had a crazy jehovahs witness tell me that God does not give dreams and visions anymore. What a crock of crap. Did they not know that God said in the last days that he will pour out his spirit of all flesh, your young men shall dream dreams and your old men shall see visions and your sons and daughtes shall prophecy. Where the hell do these so called people of God get their information? What do you do when you get one of these people coming around to your door? Arn't they anoying? they are to me. I cannot stand them to be honest. They have prophecied so many times of Christ's return and have been wrong every time.

So shouldn't we call them "Pakistinians"?

Also, do muslims have "auntie brothers" and "sister brothers"?

Sometimes I tell pray to God what how I feel and what I want to do in my life. Sometimes I do not get an answer from God and I get an answer from God.

Is the genealogy in Mat one on joseph,and the one in Luke of Jesus mother? If so then why does it say in Mat. 1
16And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.
This says Jabcob was Joseph's father.
And here in luke 3 it says,
23And Jesus himself began to be about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, which was the son of Heli,

Here it says Heli was Joseph's father.
Please help me understand this!
Thank you, I never knew about this until a friend pointed it out. Got me off guard,
