im 18 yrs old and ive been raised as a Jehovah Witness my whole life, and i truly believe in my heart it is the true religion. not because its all ive known but because, the evidence is there. there was a poin when i was 14, 15 i was doing things that werent correct to God's eyes, and boy, did i have a bad time. it was consequence after consequence. Jehovah's Witnesses teach wat the bible really says. nothing is made up, nobody is telling us wat to do besides Jehovah. its all in his word. the bible says, "they will know you are my people, if you have love within each other" i could go to some random country, and go to a kingdom hall or to another Jehovah Witness and i know that immediately i will have somewhere to stay. we have that love and trust. how many other religions or groups can honestly say that? im not trying to talk bad about anyother religion, i have respect for everyone and their beliefs, im simply stating mine.

I practice a mixed religion ..
I once had a miracle happen (overnight removal of a lumpy bodily growth- it disappeared the day after I performed a ritual) and so I learnt the power of spirituality very young. I also worked for the church many years and learnt the scriptures but grew up loosing total faith, as common snese and my logic skills developed.. not to mention the epxeriences gained. i think most of us have at least somequestions about religion..
See.. I beleive the soul/spirit is never dieing it is truly eternal and lives in this space as we know it.. the human body is purely a vehicle for the spirit to exist here.. when it dies the spirit usually takes off into space or remorphs on earth as a new being..
I also believe humans are a minor and very RARE form of life on earth beleive it or not, because i consider microbes living beings too.
Budhism hinduism are among my favourite.. but I also practice christianity as I like the connection they have with the spirit in prayer.

Jehovah's Witnesses for the following reasons:
1)God's word the Bible is the basis and ultimate authority(2Timothy 3:16-17)
2)Continuously search the scriptures for enlightenment(Psalm 119:105, Proverbs 4:18)
3)Keep God's "day" close in mind (2Peter 3:11-12)
4) Have outstanding love among themselves (John 13:35)
5) Most prominent in obedience to Christ Jesus' command to preach to and teach others (Matthew 28:19-20)

If a Religion allows every thing goes and has no rules then it is not a religion but may be a commune like in sixties hippies used to live in communes where every man and woman was free to have intercourse with any member of commune.
A good religion is one that successfully promotes and maintains union of husband and wife and children for life and living a happy life not for short few years but for ever and taking care of children to the extent of personal scrifices to raise them with education and high moral and ethical character.
Do you know only Muslims worship one God and maintain this kind of union of their families?
Hindus are also very much like Muslims in taking care of their families. I can not agree with the idea of worshipping idols made of rocks, wood and any thing else, worshipping a cow, a river, a tree etc.etc.
Christians love the easy way. Do nothing but believe in Jesus and heaven is guaranteed. How can a God be so unjust that he will send all good and bad Christians in heaven? No people can become good unless there are consequences for bad behaviour.

Nowadays, religion often carries a negative connotation as a set of rules that require people who believe to blindly follow. However, religion can simply mean a set of spiritual belief. I prefer this latter meaning. And I believe in Christianity. There is no one in this world who can be so wise as Jesus Christ who said, "I am the way, the truth and the life. No man comes to the Father(God) but through me!" - John 14:6
I hope all of you will earnestly seek the truth and I pray that you will find Jesus Christ as your Saviour and Lord!

The Christian Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses.
All the identifying marks of true Christianity r clearly seen, from anybody searching for truth.
So long as you r not blinded by bias,
prejudices, or Satan the Devil.
edit: majeed 3245,
Muslims are not the only 1's that worship 1 God.
The Christian Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses~~
One God. We do Not believe in the trinity lie.
Unitarians~~ 1 God.
Mormons aka LDS~~ 1 God.
I say it all the time on here;
"these 4 groups worship 1 God*.
Not the disgusting 3 headed god, 'the godhead.' "
The Christians u r speaking of is what is called
'false Christians' or 'members of Christendom'.
Claim Jesus & God as theirs, but "do nothing."
Some ppl call them 'Sunday Christians.'
*I have yet, to find another group that worships 1 God.
I ask all the time, "if any1 knows of another, plz share."
1 God; the one true God.

I don't believe that there's such a thing as THE true religion. We all eventually find something that works for us, and we go for it. So we find "personal" truths, but there is no universal and absolutely correct religion. That's like having a mattress that everyone in the world will sleep soundly on.

do you like the athiest answer or the non secular answer? Religiously speaking: All monothiestic religions are genuine, and that they are each and each of an identical, god, allah etc. It replaced into even pronounced that the prophet Muhammed went to heaven in a dream and spoke with jesus and moses. He had no way of understanding this of direction, meaning that that is genuine. Athiestically speaking: Religions are basically a backup plan human beings lie so heavily on. faith upholds and gives you a logical reason to reliable morals. persons are afraid to be athiest as a results of fact this implies you do no longer prefer reliable morals, habit, emotions etc. it easily relies upon upon mankind's organic intuition to describe what they sense. Why theres a thump of their chest? the middle. Why sense those compassionate emotions? i dont understand, there would desire to be some thing greater! you could take those any way. basically asserting that a number of those statements are not what i've got faith. i've got faith that despite larger potential there is (despite if theres a 6th length, the extensive planes in string theory, or God), that's thoroughly unknowable, and previous our theory. I even have reliable morals and persist with alot of the stuff as a results of fact i'm egocentric. i think greater perfect approximately myself by using feeding the hungry or giving that sandwich to a hungry beggar. i'm no longer attempting to conceal it up, and anybody who says they are no longer egocentric is mendacity. and paddy, Karl, Matt, Wally, that's all propaganda, christianity easily isn't the main celebrated faith. in case you're saying that theres basically concrete info in christianity, why are there countless different important religions? 33 p.c. of people international are christian, and thats an umbrella term for catholic, protestant, eastern orthodox, pentecostal, anglican, monophysite, AIc's, Latter-day saints, evangelical, SDA's. jehovah's witnesses, quakers, AOG, nominal and greater. particularly you wally. you utilize propaganda by using introducing christianity, and then shifting directly to a unfavorable be conscious for different religions: Cults. And damnit, if all you're christians, and have faith in each thing jesus taught, why are not you jewish like him!

Christianity. It is the only religion that doesn't have a works-based theology. All other religions have you 'doing' something to earn your way into heaven. Man has to pull himself up by his own bootstraps. In Christianity, all we have to do is believe. Jesus did all the work. But there's a catch- since He did the work, and the price was His own life, that means we are bound to Him for life. A lot of cultures believe that way- a man saves your life, and you become his servant forever. The difference is, we serve the living God who loves us and wants the best for us. It can't get any better than that.
