What is the true religion?

Answer 1

Individualism
To each his own.

Answer 2

Some of the answers already typed in above, hit the nail on the head! There is a TRUE religion...and that's following Jesus Christ, no matter what the title of the man made church. True religion lies within ourselves, because we try to live as Jesus did. True religion is actually not the name of a church building; it's SPIRITUALITY which is a gift to us, from God, for obeying Him the best we can, with what we've learned.
Everyone, ( sadly) thinks that their church is the true religion...but God won't save churches, just because they have the right name! When Jesus returns, what church will He come to? Is He confused? Should He be Catholic? Maybe Episcopalian? Or maybe He'll be Jewish because Christ was born a Jew? Jesus won't be any of those; Jesus is coming to pluck out His followers, no matter what congregation or building or Temple they might worship in! He knows our hearts, and that's what matters.
Worship anywhere you find truth being taught, if you want to go to church, and it's also possible to NOT follow a man made religion, and to read and study His word, live a good life, follow the 10 Commandments, and that is TRUE RELIGION...aka..SPIRITUALITY!
Hope this helps

Answer 3

Realize the Catholic Church is the largest religion in the world for a reason; divine providence has made it so because it is the source of truth.

The apostle Paul writes, “And every day the Lord added to their group those who were being saved.” (Acts 2:47) When the Sanhedrin were contemplating what to do with the apostles Gamaliel gave sound advice: If what they have planned and done is of human origin, it will disappear, but if it comes from God, you cannot possibly defeat them. You could find yourselves fighting against God! (Acts 5:38-39) Roman Catholicism not only is the dominant religion of the world; scripture also assures that Christ’s Church will not become (dogmatically) corrupt (Ephesians 5:27 & Mt 16:17-19).

I think having good Catholic references is essential. I recommend the following: Pocket Catholic Dictionary by Fr. Hardin; The Baltimore Catechism; The Catechism of the Catholic Church on cd by Harmony Publications; An Imitation of Christ by Thomas A Kempis; and a Catholic Bible.

There are also many good movies based upon actual historical events. These movies will provide historical background, inspiration, and quick realization of how divine providence has made the Roman CatholicChurch the largest religion in the world. I recommend the following movies:

SONG OF BERNADETTE;
THE AGONY AND THE ECSTASY;
THE SCARLET AND THE BLACK;
FATIMA.

If you took a Bible course and discovered what SCRIPTURAL TYPOLOGY is you would be amazed. If you knew what SALVATION HISTORY was in the Bible you would understand. If you recognized DIVINE AUTHORITY you would know that there has to be someone in authority to reveal the "secret" truths God has given. If you research all those phrases you will begin a journey of discovery that will last a life time.

We have a saying in Catholicism: the New Testament is hidden in the Old and the Old is revealed in the New. There are many mysteries contained in the Bible that I have been amazed at discovering for the past 20 years and there is a whole lot more. St. Jerome said: Ignorance of Scripture is ignorance of Christ. The whole Bible is about our SALVATION: Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ fulfilled over 300 prophesies in the Old Testament about the Messiah you can discover 50 of them in cd's IT IS WRITTEN.

WHEN YOU HAVE BEGUN TO DISCOVER THESE THINGS YOU WILL KNOW IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO HAVE BEEN WRITTEN BY MAN. Jesus (a historical figure along with others in the Bible that are not fictitional characters) by fulfilling just 50 prophesies makes the odds of doing that 10X135 power! An astronomical figure that could not have been achieved by human means.

The thing that might shock you and others is that SATAN used scripture to tempt Jesus. So, too Satan will use scripture to trip us up from following the true faith. This is why there has to be DIVINE AUTHORITY that passes from the Old Testament to APOSTOLIC SUCCESSION in the New Testament. This is why someone cannot Authoritatively pick up a Bible and correctly interpret it nor can there be millions of interpretors to HOLY SCRIPTURE. There can only be one!

Answer 7

Islam is the true final religion, as a continuity of Christianity and Judaism; as both in their original teaches were true at their time and being completed and replaced by Islam.

[Holy Quran 3/85] And whoever seeks a religion other than Islâm, it will never be accepted of him, and in the Hereafter he will be one of the losers.

[Holy Quran 3/19] Truly, the religion with Allâh is Islâm. Those who were given the Scripture (Jews and Christians) did not differ except, out of mutual jealousy, after knowledge had come to them. And whoever disbelieves in the Ayât (proofs, evidences, verses, signs, revelations, etc.) of Allâh, then surely, Allâh is Swift in calling to account.

[Holy Quran 3/3] “It is He Who has sent down the Book (the Qur'ân) to you (Muhammad (peace be upon him)) with truth, confirming what came before it. And he sent down the Taurât (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel).”
[Holy Quran 3/4] “Aforetime, as a guidance to mankind. And He sent down the criterion (of judgement between right and wrong (this Qur'ân)) Truly, those who disbelieve in the Ayât (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) of Allâh, for them there is a severe torment; and Allâh is All-Mighty, All-Able of Retribution.”

[3/84] Say (O Muhammad (peace be upon him)) "We believe in Allâh and in what has been sent down to us, and what was sent down to Ibrâhim (Abraham), Ismâ'il (Ishmael), Ishâque (Isaac), Ya'qûb (Jacob) and Al-Asbât (the offspring of the twelve sons of Ya'qûb (Jacob)) and what was given to Mûsâ (Moses), 'Isâ (Jesus) and the Prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction between one another among them and to Him (Allâh) we have submitted (in Islâm)."
