How are you sure?

Question

Christians seem to be relatively convinced that they have chosen the right path, but how are you sure?

For example, the Zoroastrian religion has a book that's supposed to be inspired by god as well. They have a prophet very similar to Jesus and they are older than judaism or christianity.

So, basically my question is this, Why do you christians think that you are right and zoroastrians are wrong?

Answer 1

I am neither and could care less..........More things to be concerned about in this short time we have on earth, my friend...........

Answer 2

I must say that I know nothing of the "Zoroastrian" religion but can the founder of that religion say:
1. My coming and details of my life was foretold by the prophets.
2. I rose from the dead.
3. I appeared to all my followers and 500 other witnesses after I arose.
4. During my life I preformed many miracles that proved who I said I was.
5. During my life no one to accuse me with proof that I ever sinned.
6. My Apostles and followers have and still can perform miracles in My name.

Answer 3

All I know is that God filled my heart with a love so strong for something I can not see nor touch that is Jesus Christ and its not because Ive been brain washed or anything of the sort I prayed and God simply answered and since we as humans are so weak its also proof to me that the things people say to me have no effect on my faith I know that Jesus loves me whether Im smart or not whether Im rich or poor ugly or beautiful he knows my heart and he loves me absolutly unconditionaly I can only pray that those who are truly searching will find the answer there heart desires God Bless :) :) :)

Answer 4

It doesnt matter what religion they are. Every religion thinks they have it right, and there is no way to persuade them to even think otherwise. You might as well try to convince a dog that he really is a cat, it will never happen. Won't they all be bummed one day and realize they were all wrong.

Answer 5

until the Holy Spirit convicts your heart that you need salvation, you will never understand. Similaritie (in some areas) doesnt make it same. God wants us to believe by Faith, not proof or works. Its impossible to get saved but through faith Ephesians 2:8-9. The Holy Spirit has to convict you, you cant just choose to when u feel like it.

Answer 6

I'm not sure. I don't think Zoroastrianism is wrong; it's probably more of a cultural thing. If I was Persian, I'm pretty sure I'd be worshipping Mazda Ahura.

Answer 7

Dude, I don't think anyone is wrong... I just believe there is a power or energy that created us. I call it God. People call it other things. Live and let live I say and I don't question anyone's beliefs or say they are wrong. Right on for asking this question though... I can't wait to hear some of the answers you get.

Answer 8

There are many reasons for this;
Main reason is if you live most of your life believing in something then you are conditioned to that.
I choose not to say someone else is wrong, but mearly that this is my belief, and I feel sure of my God and his word, and the way it effects me.

Answer 9

Its just like Muslims think Christianity and Judaism which were long before Islam, are wrong.

Answer 10

OK, consider this:

Christianity is the ONLY religion where God has come down and lead by example how men are to lead their lifes.

In every other religion, people are expected to reach up to God- think on that

Answer 11

Let man be a lie and God's Word be true.

I am not swayed with every wind of doctrine.

I have seen too many things too ever doubt.
