First-the bible says the Lord hates religion. Meaning, he hates what we do with it-all the rules and all the definitions we attach to his word. The word says if we beleive on him we will be saved. it doesn't say if we wear dresses only-or if we wear no makeup, or if we don't drive cars-etc. There is not one true religion. We will be amazed to see all the different religions represented when we get to heaven. The truth to follow is in the word of God. We can be catholic, jewish, budhist, baptist, etc as long as we beleive on him and carry him in our hearts and strive to opey his commandments we will be saved and what we call ourselves is unimportant.

I wish I knew a way to rate this question. This is best I have come across since being on the web.
The question though is flawed. There is no way to rate religions. That is why there are so many. Everyone wants to find A) the meaning of life B) to know that there is more to existence than this C) That there is a purpose to life that someone out there wants us.
All religions need to be scraped. The actual point of any religion is to come closer to God. And the mere act of making it a ceremony comes between you and God. If you meet with like minded people who share your passion for wanting to have a communion with God is one thing. But, First you must study the word of God, Pray to develop a communication with God, And develop inside a presence of God. Also, You must accept God's gift of salvation through Jesus Christ. That is not negotiable. Remember that The whole purpose of Developing this relationship with God is to draw close to him. IF you love YOUR child do you get rid of him or draw them near. That is what God does. Do you think he wants religion to separate him from you.?

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. How do I know. Well first, common sense lead me here. One God means one gospel. Someone, God through His prophet has to direct and lead the children of God. A person of authority, one ordained by the priesthood of God. The LDS church believes in modern day revelation. Listed below is an excellent article by Gordon B. Hinckley. It comes down to this, either there was a dark ages and the catholics lost the priesthood. Therefore it had to be restored and the Mormons claim a restoration. OR the dark ages never existed and the catholics have kept the priesthood line for 2000 years.
Quote: Amos tells us, “Surely the Lord God will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets” To obtain the answer to this, we must go back to the words of Amos: “Surely the Lord God will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets”
I KNOW without a doubt that this church is true and cantains all the truthfulness of the gospel in these latter-days.
Good luck on your search!

a million.The actual faith has appreciate for God's phrase, now not watering it down, utilising a few components and pushing aside others-two Timothy three:sixteen,17 two. It is "no side of the sector". It does not get concerned in politics,nationalism or magnificence struggles-John 17:sixteen three. It has as it is participants folks who've "love amongst themselves". They don't cross to conflict in opposition to one an additional. They don't seem to be divided by means of quite a lot of devout variations-John thirteen:35;a million Corinthians a million:10 Ask your self: a million. What faith has participants who're identified for his or her powerful ethical values? two. What faith is good identified for expelling unrepentant wrongdoers? three. What faith has now not taken up the perspective that specific sexual practices, as soon as idea of as sinful, at the moment are o.okay.? four. Which faith refuses to visit conflict, get concerned in politics, nationalism or magnificence struggles? five. Which faith has participants who, global, don't feel that we've got an immortal soul, that God and Jesus are side of a trinity, the depraved, after dying, are alive being forever tormented? Look for the one who has all of this and you are going to uncover the actual faith.

simply no such thing. Even in the bible we have Jesus telling the disciples to not go to the Gentiles because they have another covenant and God being pissy about other gods.
oddly at the core love and respect are at the root before man starts making hate of Other the rule.

The One True religion is the one which is full of goodness and truthfulness. Remember that others run away from the truth.
Who stated truthfully, "The truth shall set you free"?
-The one I have found to be flawless is "Born-Again" Christianity.

Do care to define first RELIGION.
In my own opinion the first of those who seek God away from the Church God was the very process that created the birth of the word Religion.
Those who rebelled against Church Authorities seek God away from the dogma of the Church. Thus branded by the so called vicar of Christ as atheist.
They wish and hope to be binded back to the "true God" - and thus they are on track on ONE TRUE RELIGION - literally they are the seeker of TRUTH.
To the best of my opinion there should not be religion. There are ways of life - ways of living - and not religion. It is divisive.But the Vicar of Christ who falsely represent Christ and are Ignorant of Science became religious sect also who assumed to represent Kingdom of God (false at that also) while those who rebelled against them also on religion - they may aptly in history have created and represented the State or Government - Church and the State like oil and water do not mix.
Thus religion of the Church versus religion of the State. I prefer the latter at least they believe in a God but not the God ignorantly taught by the Church.
The greatest historic blunder against humanity and thus against God is when the Church forced their dogmas and humiliated the men of letters and science in distant past - the inquisition and dark ages of Europe was Church crime against humanity and thus against the true God of Nature and Universe.
Men of letter and science who realized there is God after junking the concept of the Church, and seek God and wish to be rebinded back of God is the one on true religion.

Whatever the individual decides. I get so sick and tired of the religious people who think they are so ******* holy and great. NO one has any idea who is right or wrong in their religion, its just what they believe, so leave everyone alone, and believe what you want. Nobody is to tell anyone that they are going to hell, or whatever, because they dont believe in their certain "God" well, they might have a different belief and "God" and so they will, who knows, who cares, I believe what i want to , and no one can tell me im wrong, because they dont know.Thats the whole point of faith, believing in the unknown, trusting your life to something youve never seen and cant comprehend. So if you dont have facts for me, which no one does because its not possible, dont tell me that your religion is the "true" or "real" religion.

They all are true religions. But if you want to know God, then Jesus said:
17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. 18 Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God's one and only Son.
(John 3)
And he said this:
24 "I told you that you would die in your sins; if you do not believe that I am the one I claim to be, you will indeed die in your sins." ( John 8)
So Jesus provided us a way to know God. But Jesus left Earth after the resurrection from the dead. But when he did, He promised the Holy Spirit to come to the Earth.
7But I tell you the truth: It is for your good that I am going away. Unless I go away, the Counselor will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you. ( John 16)
It is through trusting God that we receive the Holy Spirit, and it is from Him that we have a relationship with God.

It is the Religion that each human being decides is right for them. Whoever goes around saying their Religion is the only "True Religion" is LYING.

The One True Religion, as obviously stated in the South Park Movie, is Mormonism. Geez. Try to keep up with pop culture. Most of your deep philisophical answers have already been poised there.
On a serious note, you people need to get a life - spend less time worrying about one true religion, one true god, one true path to happiness and salvation. The only people who claim that there's only one true anything is probably just trying to scare you into believing what they want, which is extremely ignorant and belies all that is moral and ethical on which religions are based.
So why don't you stop wasting everyone's time and do something good for the world, like go pick up trash off the highways or something.
