Not only does the Biblical God present Himself as the one true God, but His Son, Jesus claims that the only way to God is through Him (Jesus).

I happen to believe that the Bible is the truth. I believe that it was infallibly delivered to mankind and likewise preserved for future generations. The Bible teaches that there is only one way to salvation - and that is through Jesus Christ.

To be frank with you, this belief is not only the one that makes the most sense - it is the only one that does. All one has to do is apply a reasonable amount of serious thought to see the folly of every other "religious" theology.

True religion is found in the Bible and in the person of Jesus Christ. Every other religion (including atheism) is an exercise in futility. That's not meant to knock all other religions, that's just the simple truth.

I would identify myself as a Protestant Christian.

Dear Journey,

Am I a member of the one "true" religion? Well, that depends on who you ask. My religion is real and true to me - not based on any book or dogma but because of my own personal relationship with my version of God. Any other person of any other religion would have their own answer as to why theirs might be considered the one "true" religion. So, basically, your question is very relative. I'm sure that I've just angered lots of folks with that answer but that doesn't make it any less true.
I have a question for you, are you searching or are you just curious about what others might think? If you are searching then I would suggest that you start with trying to develop a relationship with your own idea of what God is. The brand name doesn't really matter - it's the substance and what it means to you and how that relationship speaks to your soul. If you are just curious then I hope that you get lots of interesting answers.
Remember, it's not the vehicle but the journey that matters.
Many blessings,
Jasmin.

I am a Christian, but I don't claim a specific denomination. Denominational barriers hav been one of the worste problems in Christianity since Paul wrote the letter to the Romans.

I believe every religion is a true religion. It's true enough to that person practicing it, or they would bother, right? Like me, I was raised a Catholic, I don't practice anymore. I've become more sophisticated than the beliefs the Church holds and the stories that are printed in the Bible. So I have no religion to practice any more. Which is fine. But if your beliefs are true, than that's the one true religion for you.

All religions are true to their followers. So I guess I am a member of the religion most true to me for I am a follower of Wicca.

Blessed Be )O(

there are only " True Religions. " none of them are false as the only main differences in any Religion and another are the NAMES they refer to GOD as along with the variations in the Rituals and Ceremonies used to Adore, Honor, Worship, Pray to and Petition, Thank, Etc. Etc. their GOD. GOD is to big to be in only one place and there are many paths and ways to reach ones destination. one can walk, ride a bike, a motorcycle, take a train, a plane, a bus, etc. and still get to where one wants to go. getting there is the important thing -- not how.

No! But will tell you how to find it.

What is false religion?

Why does religion seem to be at the root of so many problems?
The fault lies, not with all religion, but with “false” religion.

False Religion...MEDDLES IN WAR AND POLITICS: How many religions can you think of whose members engage in war?

False Religion...SPREADS FALSE DOCTRINE: Most religions teach that the soul of spirit is some invisible part of a human that survives the death of the physical body. However, the Bible teaches a different doctrine. “The soul that is sinning, it itself will die.” Ezekiel 18:4 Jesus taught that the dead will be resurrected, an unnecessary action if humans had an immortal soul. Does your religion teach that the soul does not die?

False Religion...TOLERATES IMMORAL SEX: Church groups ordain gay and lesbian members of the clergy. What, though, does the Bible teach? It plainly states: “Do YOU not know that unrighteous persons will not inherit God’s kingdom? Do not be misled. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men kept for unnatural purposes, nor men who lie with men.” 1 Cor. 6:9,10 Do you know of religions that condone immoral sex?

How to identify true religion.

True Religion...PRACTICES LOVE: True worshippers are “no part of the world,” are not divided by race or culture, and display “love among themselves.” Rather than killing one another, they are willing to die for one another.

True Religion...TRUSTS GOD'S WORD: Instead of teaching “tradition” and “commands of men as doctrines,” true religion bases its doctrine on God's Word, the Bible

True Religion...STRENGTHENS FAMILIES AND UPHOLDS HIGH MORAL STANDARDS: True religion trains husbands to “love their wives as their own bodies,” helps wives to develop “deep respect for their husbands,” and teaches children to “be obedient to their parents.”

True Religion is available, search for it.

A religion is "true" if the follower does not feel that thier lying while in praise.
And dies not use the faith to abuse thier members or any other things. *cough*Scientology*cough*
A rose by any other name would smell as sweet...
A nice thing to think about when debating "Who is God?"
I'm an eclectic Pagan by the way...

I'm a non denominational christian. I have attended some non denom churches and some methodist, some baptist. Not attending right now for various reasons...
But I do believe that christianity is the only way to God because Jesus said so and I believe it.
