Everywhere you look, people are fighting for religion. Muslims want the whole world to convert to islam. Christians say only they will be allowed to go to Heaven. Jews say they are the chosen people. How do we know who's right?
How can we all get along?
I have many Jews, Christians, Hindus, and Muslim friends and we get along great.

God didn't create any religion, God created the man, and gave him the ability to think different than other men, so if each one has a different conception of the divinity, then each will create a different religion.
If you see each religion in the main base, the main principles, they are all the same, is just the way to drive each one what makes them different, so we all believe in the same with different names, and different schemes.

God didn't create all the religion, man did.God created His way, man confused it. God said this is how you shall live, man said I like this part but not this one. God told the Jews that they would get a savior, but would reject Him, I think it is funny that most Jews are still waiting for the savior .... to reject Him. Christians call that Savior Jesus. Muslims say they serve the same God, that Jesus is a prophet and Mohammad is His last prophet and that He orders they to kill all there enemies, to kill all who threading there way of life. After Mohammad died the first thing the Muslims did was fight amongst there selves. So you have Muslim attacking Jews and the Christians trying to stop it, because God said it is wrong to kill anyone. Man has to much pride to get along.

God didn't create so many different religions, man made it many, because they don't want to listen and abide by God's rules. They ALTER it to fit their own personal satisfaction. If you, yourself read and study the word of God and believe his word is truth, the answers will come. It is in there. I think every religion has some truth to it, but there you go again, man has altered it to fit their own needs.
There will never be world peace until Jesus comes again. That is when ALL people will know what is truth and will be able to love one another without any I'm right or your wrong. I'm going to heaven your going to hell. I'm chosen your not.
Wont it be wonderful when it is put to a end and everyone has the same belief?

Religion is man made. Jews are the chosen, but when they turned their backs on God, that gave people that have a personnel relationship with Jesus Christ the chance to go to heaven. In Revelations 6 or 7 tells that 144,000 Jews will go be saved during the Tribulation. That means that 12,000 from each tribe will be saved. Also any one who has Jesus as their personnel Savior will go to heaven. It is open to all people who believe.

God did not create religion...man created religion. Most people either simply adopt the one they were raised in, or seek out other choices that fit how they wish, and feel they can, live their lives.
Organized religion has NOTHING to do with God...it is commerce.
People of different faiths who get along such as you and your friends are doing so because you are open, caring people who do not judge each other for your faiths, you are getting along on a human level. That's wonderful.

God did not create so many religions. Man did. God just said that we are to accept His son Jesus as our savior in order to have eternal life in His kingdom. God said that we are to obey Him and only Him. Not all those man made religions.
Deuteronomy 13:4 Ye shall walk after the LORD your God, and fear him, and keep his commandments, and obey his voice, and ye shall serve him, and cleave unto him.
John 3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
John 3:36 He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.
Deuteronomy 11:28 And a curse, if ye will not obey the commandments of the LORD your God, but turn aside out of the way which I command you this day, to go after other gods, which ye have not known.

All religions are the versions of God. and God send different prophets from time to time to tell humans about God. the last version, God send is Islam and now all have to follow that version. but no religion ask thier followers to fight and and spread haterd. now question is how to find right religion? the answer is read all the religion and adopt that which u think is near to nature. Like read Bible, Torah and Quran and then think of urself which is near to nature.
its ur mind which decide which is right!!!!!!!

Men created different religions.Just the same as they created wars to go along with them.I agree with you I have blood relatives of many different faiths.I have friends of many different faiths and many with no faith.Never had any trouble getting along with anyone.Seems like that is reserved for this board. No one knows who is right or who is wrong.We may all be wrong and things are something totally different from what we believe.

I decided a long time ago,after long,hard thinkin',that 'god' did NOT create any religion! I now sincerely believe that ALL religions were created by mankind,himself,to control people & extract their wealth!

God created people to have a friendship with him he created the laws of the jews to bring them to him and to point to jesus. jesus died so we could come to God but men have fiddled with Gods truth to make it profitable to them. religion is the result. anyone who trusts in jesus and is filled with Holy Spirit is saved and true christianity is a friend ship with God and not a religion unfortunatly over time men have added bits or changed bits for their own profit. to know who's right ask God he will tell you and he longs for you to come to him. it is up to the individuals to Get along it is by no means impossible.
