The one that makes you right with God.

[You will forgive me for telling you that you are too late since you are already under the wrath of God and are by nature a child of wrath even as others,(Ephesians 2/2).]

I hope you are able to follow the issues handled and the reasoning of the following answer given :


But now the righteousness of God, without the law, is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets,
Even the righteousness of God which is by the faith of Jesus Christ, unto all and upon all them that believe, for there is no difference,

For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,

Being justified freely by his grace throught the redemption that is in Christ Jesus,
Whom God set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the fprbearance of God.

To declare...at this time, his righteousness, that he might be JUST and the JUSTIFIER of him which believes in Jesus. (Capitals mine) Romans 3/21-26.

This is how a perfect God is able to forgive sin without prejudicing or corrupting His absolute perfection, righteousness and holiness.

This therefore is the only way anyone can be made right with God.

Jesus started one true Christian religion. So, today there must be just one body, or group, of true worshippers of Jehovah God. (John 4:23, 24; Ephesians 4:4, 5) The Bible teaches that only a few people are on the narrow road to life.--Matthew 7:13, 14.The Bible foretold that after the death of the apostles, wrong teachings and unchristian practices would slowly come into the Christian congregation. Men would draw away believers to follow them instead of Christ. (Matthew 7:15, 21-23; Acts 20:29, 30) That is why we see so many different religions that claim to be Christian. The most outstanding mark of true Christians is that they have real love among themselves. (John 13:34, 35) They are not taught to think that they are better than people of other races or skin color. Neither are they taught to hate people from other countries. (Acts 10:34, 35) So they do not share in wars. True Christians treat one another as brothers and sisters.--1John 4:20, 21. Another mark of true religion is that its members have a deep respect for the Bible. They accept it as the Word of God and believes what it says. (John 17:17; 2Timothy 3:16, 17) they treat God's Word as being more important than human ideas and customs. (Matthew 15:1-3, 7-9) They try to live by the Bible in everyday life. So they do not preach one thing and then practice another.--Titus 1:15, 16. The true religion must also honor God's name. (Matthew 6:9) Jesus made God's name, Jehovah, known to others. True Christians must do the same. (John 17:6, 26; Romans 10:13, 14) Who are the people in your community that tell others about God's name? True Christians must preach about God's Kingdom. Jesus did so. He always talked about the Kingdom. (Luke 8: 1) He commanded his disciples to preach this same message in all the earth. (Matthew 24:14; 28:19, 20) True Christians believe that only God's Kingdom would bring true peace and security to this earth.--Psalm 146:3-5. Jesus disciples must be no part of this wicked world. (John 17:16) They do not get involved in the world's political affairs and social controversies. They avoid harmful conduct, practices, and attitudes that are common in the world. (James 1:27; 4:4) Can you identify a religious group in your community that has these marks of true Christianity?

Ha ha ha.

Excellent question for late on a sunday.

Clearly you are almost answering your own question here.Which god to piss off.... tough one. As they are all the work of meglomanics, egomaniacs or fantasists, it is probably okay to go with whichever makes you feel best or has the nicest robes.

If there were a real god with the power to create this incredible universe, I don't think that he/she/it would be too concerned about what colour your devotional robes were, just that you were nice to other creatures and helped look after the place.

If they need more than that then they are a bit too twisted and egocentric to be my god. Fancy, something with that level of power demanding "love me, love me, love me/fear me, fear me, fear me" over and over. Low self-esteem or what!

Religion is only mentioned one time in the bible, which probably reflects what God thinks about religion.

If you ignore the fact that there are hundreds of religions and concentrate on trying to find God, I think that that will solve your problem.

If I were in your shoes I would ask God to reveal himself to you. If you're really serious about it, you'll find him and he you. I'd also read the bible and go to an alpha course. They're advertised everywhere and provide an excellent opportunity to find out about God without pressure.

I would say Christianity, but it isn't a religion it is a relationship.

Why do I say Christianity? Because it is the only 'religion' that doesn't rely on your good works outweighing your bad when you die. I, for one, know that I would never be going to Heaven if it relied on the scales tipping the right way. I wouldn't say that I am a bad person but I sometimes hate people, I sometimes get jealous, I used to disobey my parents...there is no way I would get to Heaven if it relied on my good works.

You might try Eastern Orthodox. The very first christian church established after Christ is Eastern Orthodox. It is catholic(meaning universal) and apostolic (teachings of the apostles). The Roman Catholic church is a branch off from Orthodox. The service at any orthodox church is the same now as it was back in the beginning. Christian, Jew, Muslim all worship the same God. They just all do not get there the same way.

You ain`t going to piss off the wrong god `cos there isn`t one. You might however piss off a lot of believers in fairy tales and folklore who idolise and worship a symbol....... Wonder how many thumbs down this will get me!

Why ask that? No one can answer that question because every single follower of any religion will say that their own religion is the right one.

Hey dont panic, just treat everyone as you would wish to be treated yourself. Appreciate everything and everyone around you. Remember that religeon over the years has travelled, been carried from one culture to another, often by word and mouth more often then not, before we could read and write.

In GODS house, there are many mansions (religeons)

My own theory is : Lots and Lots of candles, make ONE LIGHT!!!
If we could all just respect one another religeons and have in enhance our lives, would it not be a wonderful world?

There is no wrong G-D or wrong religion. It's dependent on what you need to spiritually fulfill you. There is no wrong G-D as G-D is universal. Everyone has their unique way of worshiping a divine source. Before you even choose a religion, find out what spiritually satisfies you, what morals you desire, how you choose to live your life, etc. You don't need to belong to any organized religion for that nor to do you need to affiliate with any faith to connect with G-D.
