can religion - any kind - leads us to the truth?

Answer 1

As much as I'd love to say yes, I believe there is an absolute truth and not everyone can be "right"

Answer 2

Only the kind that promotes love for God, compassion to all living entities and promotes global peace, then the religion can be considered bona-fide and leads to truth, the absolute truth is that from which all things emanate, so the process of Bhakti Yoga revives the eternal spiritual identity that is temporarily covered by a material form and reconnects us to the all pervading source of the spiritual and material manifestations, the Supreme Personality of Godhead.

There is no exclusive path to liberation from the material world other then the process of Bhakti, if any tradition or process can provide the knowledge and leadership to promote devotional service (Bhakti Yoga) to the Supreme, then self realisation, God realisation and liberation is assured.

Answer 3

Religion and denominations are different things altogether.

I do not believe any denomination has the total truth. All have some good points, but are lacking in some areas.
Our personal study is the only thing that can lead us to the truth.

Religion --- Biblical definition
James 1:
26. If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain.
27.PURE RELIGION and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.

Answer 4

Of course they can, all of the different religions pray to the same God.

Unless you are silly enough to think that yours is an exclusive club that is somehow better than all of the rest.

This is a silly dream that a few of the religions have. You can be sure that someone is not a true christian if they think that their religion is the one true and only way to God. Jesus never taught this, but they misinterpret what he said to support this idea.

This is the exact opposite of what Jesus taught.

Answer 5

Religions are businesses -- they can teach you the truth about budgets, accounting, etc. Spirituality is a personal journey in search of Truth.

Answer 6

you may actually bypass to the fanciest college and get the proper grades and the utmost honors to be a criminal specialist, yet that would not make him the proper criminal specialist. Why? because he has no adventure contained in the own end of the sector. coping with people. basically because some one reads a mag and study 5 pages a e book per week with the readings of really few scriptures in contact , would not make on a biblical student or someone who has a own relationship with G_d both. So basically because one may belong to an prepared faith would not make it the surely or one faith that teaches actuality.

Answer 7

I believe that understanding that God IS, is the starting point for understanding what is true. Religion that focuses on the one true living God will necessarily lead to truth for all who search for it.

Peace and blessings to you.

Answer 8

The TRUTH is there for all to read... In the Bible.
It is religious tradition that should be ignored.
Matthew 15; (Matthew 15:3) In reply he said to them: “Why is it YOU also overstep the commandment of God because of YOUR tradition?
(Matthew 15:6) he must not honor his father at all.’ And so YOU have made the word of God invalid because of YOUR tradition.
The condition of the dead??? Ecclesiastes 9;5,6
Trinity?? The word is not in the Bible.
Jesus' beginning??? Proverbs 8; 22-31
The future of people??? Psalms 37; 9-11...
And so it goes.
