What religion is right?? How do you know??

Question

just got out of being pentecostal (upc).. just wondering, who thinks they're right and y.

Answer 1

lol None of us are right. Read the Word of God. Do not translate to your own understanding. Just take it as a whole. According to my Bible.. most of all the people on earth are wrong right now. This is the end times and it is almost done. Look around at your local churches. Most of them you cannot tell who is so called Christian and who is not on normal days of the week. What about you upc people? You use tongues and call it a needed sign of the HolyGhost. The thing is.. you cannot prove it with the Word. Speaking intongues in this day is totally against the Word of God. I was said to be a Pentecostal preacher called of God. I grew up in a very strict household. Those things did'nt come close to real truth. Read what the Bible says about tongues and see if the apoastolic faith adds up. Read about the baptist thought of once saved always saved and see where they are wrong. My Bible says that a liar goes to hell. What about one that is so called saved and yet he lies or sins continual? Hell. Cathoics? No need in going there.. we all know what a contradiction to the Word that they are. Point is this... we live in the time that the scripture warned of. Not many are right and they are at fault considering they have the Word to see for themselves. God bless and goodluck. Pray for eye-salve as He commanded.

P.S. Religion is something you choose. lol Not at all. There is one truth. One God. Do you think Jesus was joking when He said narrow was the road? There is no room for error. Let me say it again... there is one turth that is beyond our interpretation. Take the Word as a whole.

Answer 2

I'm Pagan and it is right for me but that does not mean it is right for everyone. You might want to check out beliefnet.com. You can take a quiz there where you outline your beliefs and they tell you which religions follow most closely to what you believe. If you want to learn more about Paganism then you might want to pick up a copy of margret addler's drawing down the moon. It gives descriptions of many of the religions that fall under Paganism and some of their history. The most important thing though is to choose the religion that feels right TO YOU. Others may claim that theirs is the truth and everyone else is wrong but this is not the case. Everyone has the right to choose their own path and the paths to choose from are as varied as the beings on this world. Go with what you believe not with what others claim to be "the truth"

Answer 3

Not to many is right these days. Paul warned on the antichrist and also the spirit that would hound the world in the last days. Baptist, catholic, metholist.. apostolic? Who is right? I grew up in a tongue talking, God fearing church and even then we were all ignorant to the Word. Do not follow mans doctrine for salvation. You will not find a church that teaches Gods Word as a whole. Not today. If you do, please tell me about it. Sinners goto hell, the commandments are needed for salvation, spiritual gifts are not the same as before.. read 1st Corinthians 14. Read the rules about tongues. Who should speak in the unknown tongue and how should we do it in church service? Should we have someone to enterprit? Answer these questions. No one is right that I know of. These are the last days and the devil has trully transformed himeself into an angel of light. Read the Word and pray for eyesalve.

Answer 4

It's an individual thing. The only way you can know what is right FOR YOU is to look around, check them out, read, ask questions, and decide for yourself.

I am a witch, and I can't claim that would be right for everyone. It takes a lot of time to learn, to develop a personal style, read what you can, sort through the large percentage of BS written about and by modern witches, and look deep inside yourself for what fits you and what does not.

But whatever you end up believing, including if you turn to materialism and atheism, has to be from your mind and your soul, your heart and your head. It is not just reciting a creed that starts with "I believe" over and over until you stop feeling like you are lying to yourself. That's called self-brainwashing.

Answer 5

The only religion or belief that is right, is the one that is right for you.

There are some here who will tell you that their choice in religion is right and others are wrong.

There are some here who do not believe in religion who will tell that their choice is right and that others are wrong.

Then there are some of us here from both sides of the fence who will tell you that it is your choice to make, for you are the only one who knows what is right or wrong for you.

Good Luck in your search.
Peace & Love,
Sam (A Christian)

Answer 6

I don't know about religion but Jesus said..."I am the way, the truth and the life. No man comes to the Father except by me."

Everybody knows or should know that NO other name has been given by which we must be saved except the name Jesus.

No other prophet was raised from the dead, except Jesus.

No one else has been called Messiah, except Jesus.

Religion may not be right but I know the Holy Bible is.

Answer 7

religion is not about being right or wrong. you choose a specific denomination bc you agree with their beliefs and feel comfortable with them overall. you just need to discover where it is that you feel at home the most and what truly calls out to you. but remember, no one can tell you how to choose

Answer 8

It's not a matter of me being right, but the Bible being right. Here's something I wrote for MySpace that explains it pretty well...


The reason I came to believe that the Bible is the infallible and inspired Word of God is pretty simple.. I tested it, and it passed:


Is it scientifically accurate? In a time when science knew nothing, the Bible somehow knew about ocean currents, mountains at the bottom of the sea, the jet stream, the expansion of the universe, and the roundness of the earth. Science thought there were 6,000 stars in the universe, but the Bible called them "innumerable". Other "holy books" thought the earth was held on the backs of turtles, elephants, or Atlas. The Bible said that the earth hangs on nothing. It is suspended in space.

Is it historically accurate? The Dead Sea Scrolls show us that our modern day translation is extremely well preserved, just as Jesus promised. It hasn't changed. Plenty of sources outside of the Bible verify such things as Jesus' crucifixion and the empty tomb, the brutal killing of early Christians (because they had seen the resurrected Christ and dared to believe), the worldwide flood, and basically everything that ever happened to Israel. Speaking of the flood, the Bible says it happened about 4,400 years ago and wiped out all life. It's interesting to note that the oldest living trees are about 4,400 years old. The oldest reef is about 4,400 years old. 4,400 years ago all of the ocean waters would have been fresh, not salty. And applying the average growth rate to the 4 couples that came off Noah's ark, 6 billion is the number we would expect after 4,400 years.

Is it prophetically accurate? If even one Bible prophecy can be proven wrong, then the whole faith is false. But every prophecy has now been fulfilled except for those that are reserved specifically for the future, the "last days". Jesus was born, lived, and was crucified exactly when and how the Old Testament foretold. The temple was destroyed as Jesus prophesied. Then Jerusalem was taken over as Jesus prophesied. Because of disobedience the Jews were scattered among the nations as prophesied in Deuteronomy. Then Israel was restored as prophesied in Jeremiah, and the Jews began to return to Israel and it blossomed as prophesied in Zechariah. It became a nation in just one day (in 1948) as prophesied in Isaiah. Knowledge and travel have increased as prophesied in Daniel. Mankind is capable of destroying all life as prophesied in Zechariah (the neutron bomb melts its victims, as foretold in Zechariah). The possession of Jerusalem is at the center of international turmoil, also prophesied in Zechariah. The fact that God once flooded the earth is being denied, as prophesied in 2 Peter.


Check it out for yourself. This barely scratches the surface. And if all of this is true and was known before man could have known it, then what other conclusion is there? God inspired these fallible men to write his infallible Word, because he wants to be known. This is how he has made himself known. Today you have a choice. Will you take him seriously, or will you reject him again?

Answer 9

Christianity. Because Christ is the only prophet that actually rose from the dead and carried out every prophesy.
The Bible was written over 1,500 year span
Written over 40 generations
Written by over 40 authors from every walk of life including kings, peasants, philosophers, fishermen, poets, statesmen, scholars, etc.
Written on three different continents and three languages
Yet it doesn't contradict one another.
And it states historical facts about people, places, and events.

Answer 10

there IS 1 ...I can't tell you which one it is..because THAT will be the religion YOU will avoid for that very reason...

you want the answer...ASK GOD HIMSELF!! Prayer is important...who would know better than GOD himself???

2nd of all ask him with this question in mind

God what Church has the proper priesthood authority? What church has the correct doctrine as taught by thy Son Jesus Christ? Will you send me someone who will teach me what is right?

if you get the answer to that...then you will be on the right way!!
