How does you religion work or your bible?

Answer 1

What does it mean to be a born again Christian? The classic passage from the Bible that answers this question is John 3:1-21. The Lord Jesus Christ is talking to Nicodemus, a prominent Pharisee and member of the Sanhedrin (a ruler of the Jews). Nicodemus had come to Jesus at night. Nicodemus had questions to ask Jesus.
As Jesus talked with Nicodemus, He said "...Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." Nicodemus said to Him, "How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother's womb and be born?" Jesus answered, "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Do not marvel that I said to you, You must be born again...." (John 3:3-7).
The phrase "born again" literally means "born from above." Nicodemus had a real need. He needed a change of his heart--a spiritual transformation. New birth, being born again, is an act of God whereby eternal life is imparted to the person who believes (2 Corinthians 5:17; Titus 3:5; 1 Peter 1:3; 1 John 2:29; 3:9; 4:7; 5:1-4, 18). John 1:12,13 indicates that "born again" also carries the idea "to become children of God" through trust in the name of Jesus Christ.
The question logically comes, "Why does a person need to be born again?" The Apostle Paul in Ephesians 2:1 says, "And you He made alive, who were dead in trespasses and sins..." To the Romans in Romans 3:23, the Apostle wrote, "For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God." So, a person needs to be born again in order to have their sins forgiven and have a relationship with God.
How does that come to be? Ephesians 2:8,9 states, "For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works lest any man should boast." When one is "saved," he/she has been born again, spiritually renewed, and is now a child of God by right of new birth. Trusting in Jesus Christ, the One who paid the penalty of sin when He died on the cross, is what it means to be "born again" spiritually. "Therefore, if any man be in Christ, he is a new creation..." (2 Corinthians 5:17a).
If you have never trusted in the Lord Jesus Christ as your Savior, will you consider the prompting of the Holy Spirit as He speaks to your heart? You need to be born again. Will you pray the prayer of repentance and become a new creation in Christ, today? "But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe on His name: who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God" (John 1:12-13).
If you want to accept Jesus Christ as your Savior and be born again, here is a sample prayer. Remember, saying this prayer or any other prayer will not save you. It is only trusting in Christ that can save you from sin. This prayer is simply a way to express to God your faith in Him and thank Him for providing for your salvation. "God, I know that I have sinned against you and am deserving of punishment. But Jesus Christ took the punishment that I deserve so that through faith in Him I could be forgiven. I place my trust in You for salvation. Thank You for Your wonderful grace and forgiveness - the gift of eternal life! Amen!

Answer 2

Scripture tells is that it is the Word of YHVH in a special sense. Therefore it contains the truth, and since it is written for our instruction, we can get understanding from it through study and prayer. Things are complicated because Churchianity (which pretends to honor Scripture) is a pagan religion which is misleading people.

Answer 3

Well, this is the irony of Christianity which began with the Jewish religion established so long ago.

The Old Testament scriptures contained some amazing revelation: He was revealed in the flesh, vindicated by the Spirit, seen by angels, proclaimed among Gentiles, believed on in the world, taken up in glory. 1 Timothy 3:16

Jesus Christ was promised to us when man disobeyed in the Garden of Eden. God used the Jewish nation to bless us through Christ and the lessons given to this nation taught us much - in promises as well as consequential punishments.

Now religion in itself may seem wise because they require strong devotion, pious self-denial, and severe bodily discipline. But they provide no help in conquering a person's evil desires. Colossians 2:23

James 1:27 says Pure and genuine RELIGION in the sight of God the Father means caring for orphans and widows in their distress and refusing to let the world corrupt you.

This is how Christians should live according to God... helping those who can not help themselves and not giving into the values of the world (elaborated in His Word) but instead - growing in our understanding of Him and valuing His values. After all, when He created us in our mother's womb... we came with an instruction packet ...
it's called the Bible.

There was a fear of death prior to the hope of Christ...

Hebrews 9:27 - 28 And just as each person is destined to die once and after that comes judgment, so also Christ died once for all time as a sacrifice to take away the sins of many people. He will come again, not to deal with our sins, but to bring salvation to all who are eagerly waiting for him.

In gratitude, folks that trust and follow Christ, speak to Him daily and entrust themselves to the wisdom revealed in the Bible for decisions, values, and hope. Followers of Christ read it to seek truth and be transformed by what it says. Within the pages - it portrays a consistent, powerful, grace-filled God that asks you to trust Him because He created you, loves you and laid down his life for you.

Answer 4

We respect all faiths, we believe in one God (but sometimes call Him by different names and worship different forms of Him), and we have the Vedas, Upanishads, and many other holy texts, perhaps the most well-known being the Bhagavad Gita.
