Am I right by saying that there are allot (ALLOTTTT!!!) of diffirent beliefs in christianity, but the Bible says that there are only ONE that is the right one. So think of this, if there is only one that is true, there is a good chance you and me are following the wrong one. Whats your oppinion on this?

very good!! you are starting to see the errors of your ways. Fuzzy logic doesn't really hold true, that's why Science has to rule out the Bible as a credible source for anything.
PEACE! and have a GOOD day!

Well Friend yes there is many beliefs in the bible, & when I first got saved in 1970, I too was faced with this, So I myself said, I will see what the Apostles of Old Taught, I did & I am following their teachings, Because they were not wrong, & if we have that same spirit of Revelation, we will also follow that one true teaching of that of the Apostles, Even Apostle Paul said, if we, or an angel from heaven came down & preached any other Gospel that what we have preached, Let him be accursed.

You are right. But if you're talking about Catholic Faith, they have 3 sources of faith that they are using.
1. The holy Scriptures (Bible)
2. The Sacred Traditions
3. The Church's Teachings
THese three is often interconnected every time they make a statement or a teachings.

I think the basis of Christianity is a belief in Christ's sacrifice for us and repenting (turning away from) our sins, and doing our best to live a righteous life because of our love for God. That much can't be misinterpreted in the Bible. I can't imagine God punishing someone with a sincere heart for being wrong about other, less important details.

Here is a good way to know if you are follow the right way
My definition of Christian is a follower of Christ. Jesus Christ, who is God, became the one and only sacrifice for the salvation of mankind. - Jesus is God and there is one, not many paths that lead to God - Jn.3; Jn.14:5-6; Acts 2:21; Acts 4:12; Rom.10:10; Cols.1:20-22; Cols.2:13-15 After we die we go to our eternal reward of heaven or hell. - Salvation is not thru reincarnation or in living a pretty good life. - Whether we put our faith in Jesus while we lived on earth determines our eternal destiny. - No second chance after we die. No purgatory. When we die our destiny is sealed for ever. - Matt.3:12; Matt.25:41; Heb.9:27; Rev.20; Rev.21:27
According to Matthew 7, there will be those who stand before God and call themselves Christian but God will say "depart from me I never knew you". They were not building their lives on a Christian foundation or worldview. They were only Christian in name.
I can not pick and choose which parts of the Bible I will obey if I want to be a follower of Jesus!
A new generation of Christians are buying into the lie that you can be a Christian and pick and choose your values based on your own preferences instead of the absolutes of scripture.
Biblical absolutes, logic and reason are out of style and tolerance, choice and preferences are in.
This shift of worldviews has a great impact on our lives and church.
At one time the word "intolerance" was used for things such as racism but today it is being used against anyone who questions another person's values or belief system.
In the new worldview everything is relative. There is no right and wrong beliefs. There is no objective set of absolutes other then what the individual of community chooses.
The new measure of morality is "If it doesn't hurt anyone it is ok"
Of course this is all based on a lie. All sin hurts not only the individual but those around them and the very fabric of a society.
Anyone who claims to have absolutes is viewed as the new radical fundamentalists of society.
The scriptures, not the preferences of man are the basis for truth and so we have both authority and responsibility to speak and share our faith.
Ezek 3:18 When I say to a wicked man, 'You will surely die,' and you do not warn him or speak out to dissuade him from his evil ways in order to save his life, that wicked man will die for his sin, and I will hold you accountable for his blood.
The universal truth for all cultures and peoples is written in the Bible:
John 14:5-6 Thomas said to him, "Lord, we don't know where you are going, so how can we know the way?" Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
Acts 4:12 Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved."
What have you decided about Jesus?
Have you embraced not only Jesus but his teachings? Are you living a biblical worldview?
Are you walking in obedience to the absolutes of His word as the authority in your life for the decisions you make?
If not, according to the Bible, you really don't love Jesus. Jesus said in John 14:15: "If you love me you will obey what I command". In other words if you love Jesus you will live by a Biblical worldview.

Unfortunately, you don't need to follow the righ one to be saved. What you need in repent, follow Jesus' teaching, and live in a way guided by the Holy Spirit. Keep reading the Holy Bible and keep on learning.

From your previous questions, I would say there's a very good chance you're following the wrong one.

I could say that you are correct in your assumption of the "wrong" church.....
Personally, I do not follow any religion, nor do I attend any church.
Truth be known, the "church" is not the building as much as it is the people who make up the "body", if you will, of the spiritual True Church......
While speaking of the Spirit, we know that God is a spirit.... and it is written to worship Him in spirit and in truth..... I say, if you are doing this... then you are already in within it.....

There are alot of religions that believe in different aspects of the Bible, but nowhere does it say that the outcome will be different if they believe and accept Jesus as their savior.
