...assuming that God Almighty had a son named Jesus and he was in fact the messiah. This should narrow the scope of the answers to something reasonable.

Yes. In Revelation, John is told to write to the 7 churches. Each is then reprimanded and encouraged for certain things, except for one. That one is the church at Philadelphia, whom Jesus says is doing well, and he has nothing against them. (Rev 3:7-13)
Some Biblical scholars believe the seven churches refer to seven "ages" of the church, the Philadelphia one being the church age that is raptured. It is not a particular church in Asian/Biblical Philadelphia or the city in Pennsylvania, as far as we know, but a group of "Christians" throughout th world who continue to hold to the Bible's truths and resist temptation, just like the recipiens of the letter Jesus had John write.

The 'real' faith ought to follow Jesus as their get at the same time. Jesus replaced into doing what his Father in heaven needed. So each thing Jesus suggested replaced into as sturdy as coming direct from Almighty God. Jesus always made God's call...practice up. what's God's own call? Exodus 6;3...Psalm 80 3;18...Jehovah Jesus gave us the 'form' prayer...Matthew 6; 9,10 to desire for God's Kingdom. Of which Jesus might want to be the King. yet nevertheless no longer ABOVE Jehovah his Father in heaven. And Jesus isn't God himself, yet his son. they're 2 persons. there is number 0.33 get at the same time to make up any Trinity. The Holy Spirit is God's potential, no longer a nil.33 human being. it may be disbursed or granted to us by ability of God. And the real faith obeys Matthew 24;14 and 28; 19,20 study those fundamentals adverse to all so called Christian religions and in undemanding words one will fulfill the criteria. As for center East and oriental religions, they're an excellent purchase of classic practices that promise no more beneficial useful destiny. All this on the muse that there is nly ONE Almighty God who demands to be worshipped HIS way. IF there have been diverse procedures to God's approval, why may HE have had the Bible written for us? He may basically enable us bypass on our own sweet way and per chance pick basically the sturdy ones. undemanding sturdy ones may yet benefit approval. yet they could fail on the requirement of Matthew 28; 19,20 that decision is God's

In that case, the only true religion is Christianity, which is actually a truth, or a way of life. The Catholic Church, the Eastern Orthodox Church, and the Protestant Church are the three main branches of "Christianity", but so long as one truly loves, serves, and believes in the Father, Son, and Spirit, they have been saved. Salvation itself, however, is a different and slightly more complicated topic.

The only true religion promotes the fact that we are all children of God and that real Judgement can only be determined and served by God and God alone when we are dead. Judgement on Earth is merely that made by rules and law of men. Rules and laws of men do change over time and are not considered genuine God's laws..

Think about your question. The bible was written by men who wanted to use it to control people, not a deity, so you'll never know the answer to that question sinceit's impossible to know for sure. If you really want to get technical, if there is a god, I really doubt he condones any of the religions that exist since they all seem to have their list of instances where it's acceptable to oppress, murder, harm, etc. other people.

Yes, I think that Muslim extremists get down on their knees each and every night and thank GOD that George W. Bush is the president of the United States!
They could not have hoped to pluck a better pigeon for their cause.

you seem to have had your mind narrowed. you ask about a "true" religion and then immediately assume it has something to do with a guy named jesus who allegedly lived a couple of thousand years ago.
