Who is right?

Question

If you ask 100 questions you get a 100 different answers! Is there such a thing as right and wrong? Like Is Jesus God? Is there a hell?

Answer 1

Right and wrong are personal perceptions. Its like a child who one day loves pancakes and the next day hates them. Adults are the same way, especially when it comes to religion.

Answer 2

There is such a thing as right and wrong. Out of those 100 different answers, only one can be right. But, mankind have fallen short of understanding the Laws of God and they try to make their own laws because they think they are more powerful than God.

Answer 3

What is god? What is hell? For most religious questions you can pose another deeper question. Some want to stop at some level (there's a god and he wrote this book, now just stop asking questions outside this book) others just keep diving in deeper. In both cases you can ask the one question that (in my mind) really matters which is "what difference does any of that make to me right now?" Whether there's a god OR NOT there's a newspaper at the door with some (hopefully) funny comics and a job that I need to get ready for. God won't make my breakfast and I don't want him/her reading the comics for me (they really work on a much more personal level).

Personally, I think the only real sin is to stop asking without some satisfaction. You don't need to spend your life asking questions but clearly if you don't like an answer that makes the answer false. You really do know what's right or at least you can reason it out. It's not always cut and dried.

Answer 4

There is definately a right and wrong, but it's all in perception. The current philosophy about the Jesus/God question is probably best expressed as a Trinity, so, yeah, they are the same, but different. Hell is described many places and in many ways, personally I believe Hell is total isolation from God/Heaven, with no chance of ever crossing the divide. Guess this makes answer #101?

Answer 5

Yes there is, but you are the only one that knows the answer. We were all raised to believe certain things and we were all indoctrinated in certain philosophies. You are looking for an answer to the eternal question, is there God? Yes, there is, but not the way people think there is. God is not an old white man riding on a cloud, with a laptop, keeping score. God, the one you are looking for, is inside you, you are God. Is there hell? Absolutely, we all live in it every day. there are ten states that all humans live in, and we jump from state to state all the time, every day. As an example, your rent is due, and you do not have the money. You live in hell, your emotional and mental condition is akin, to ling in hell. But, now supposedly I gave you the money for your rent, you are all of a sudden in heaven. these are the only havens and hells that exist, the ones we create for ourselves as human beings. There are many more states that we live in, but that is too long of a diatribe for this thread. I hope this helps.

Answer 6

Well, all you have to do is read the bible if you want to know about Jesus and God. That is who wrote it! Yes, Jesus is God, just His human form. He was sent to the earth to be sacrificed for our sins, so that we may live in heaven one day. It also says in the bible that if you do not know Jesus, you can not know God, therefore, not go to heaven.
Yes, there is a hell. It is a very real, and horrible place. The devil does not even hold dominion over it. He will be as low as everyone else there. If you search '23 minutes in hell'. You will find a GREAT description of hell.
**When people say that 'all paths of religion are true, they are lying. In the bible it says God is the ONLY way. Why would He say that if there happend to be other ways? Then God would be lying...and it also says in the bible that God does NOT lie**

Answer 7

If you ask a question that has an established answer through empirical evidence like:

Q: How much does a gallon of water weight?
A: 8.3 pounds per gallon.

Then you can nail down "Who is right".

But what you are asking is a matter of faith and faith is "In the eye of the beholder" so to speak. What you believe might differ from what I believe.

I find the idea of "Hell" as a "Lake of fire, ever burning, ever consuming" a little much for me, but then I could be taking to too literal.

Food for thought,

Answer 8

If it comes down to questions like if Jesus God? Yes He is. He is God in the flesh. So there is a right and wrong. And is there a Hell? Yes there is. Its a place that was designed for Satan and his demons. And a place of eternal fire.

Answer 9

The only way to find out the truth is to search for yourself. Jesus is the truth..you find and follow him then you'll know exactly who's right. There is a hell for those who don't believe..

Answer 10

I will quote Dr. John Hagelin from "What The Bleep Do We Know"

"All of them are true. There are just different levels of truth."

If you remember in one of Paul's letters in the bible; he said "spiritual babes need milk, and meat was reserved for those of full age and could discern both good and evil."

I think the Creator teaches us spiritual truths according to our level of understanding.

Some religions like to postulate they have all of the answers; I'm not sure if I have all of the questions yet.

Answer 11

Instead of asking us humans who make mistakes and sometimes have a hard time writing what we believe, why don't you ask God yourself? He will give you the answer.

Merry Christmas.
