Why do you believe that your Religion is the correct one?

Answer 1

I don't. I believe in personal Truth. There are many paths that lead to God.

God has no religion - Gandhi

Answer 2

for me its not about being correct or incorrect. I am familiar with the religion I choose and I find that for my self the symbolism and ritual involved give me a good starting place for my journey. I accept that others start from a differing place and having looked in to that I respect that is so. I do however take on board some things from other religions as I find them useful to myself and my journey. The many religions highlight the many paths to the one destination and I try and respect and understand were others are comin` from. So to answert your question...........this ones right for me but I am always willing to learn and adapt. Though I don`t believe I`ll change but I will pick up tools as I go.

Answer 3

Well, if you class atheism as a religion, I reckon it's as correct as one can hope for because it opens the widest potentials and options for thought - and for critical observation without the strait-jacket of dogma, or the myopia of tinted glasses. Besides, it seems somewhat weird to propose that any religion based on the local and general ignorance of a few thousand years ago, or the suppositions of primitive humanity, could hold ultimate truths, whatever insights it may contain about human and other relationships from previous human experience (which is universal rather than particular anyway).

Answer 4

According to the bible, my religion is a true religion. I am followsing the law in God which is in the bible.
Act 13:24 When John had first preached before his coming the baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.
Gal 1:13 For ye have heard of my conversation in time past in the Jews' religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the church of God, and wasted it:
Gal 1:14 And profited in the Jews' religion above many my equals in mine own nation, being more exceedingly zealous of the traditions of my fathers.
Jas 1:26 If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain.
Jas 1:27 Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.

Answer 5

I don't.

But, it's correct for me.

People live their lives in their own way, and everyone believes something different. One cannot claim that their religion is "right," because everyone does this; hence, to claim yourself correct, is to insinuate that you are "better" than others.

It's similar to the positions of an argument. When you argue with someone, you feel that you are right. After all, if you didn't, you'd be on the other person's "side," correct? Mhm. But, I guarantee that the person with whom you're arguing also feels that they're right. After all, if they felt wrong, they'd agree with you, hence no argument, correct? Mhm.

Therefore, I simply believe that something is right for every person, but nothing is right for everyone.

Answer 6

Any Religion that believes in God the Father Almighty is correct. The reason I stay with my Religion is because , all of my Ancestors became Christian and I have followed in their paths. We believe there is only one true God. For that reason , I stay with the Religion, that I was born into.

Answer 7

This question is quite simple. If you look through the bible, you can find points of the true church as Jesus Christ himself established them. The church I belong to has the same organization as the church Jesus Christ himself established and was restored to the earth by Jesus Christ himself.

1- Christ organized the church. (Ephesians 4:11-14)
2- The church must bear his name. (Ephesians 5:23)
3- The church must have a foundation of prophets and apostles. (Ephesians 2:19-20)
4- It has the same organization as Christ established. (Ephesians 4:11-14)
5 - It claims divine authority. (Hebrews 5:4-10)
6- It has no paid ministry. (Isaiah 45:13 and 1 Peter 5:2)
7- Performs baptism by immersion. (Matthew 3:13-16)
8- The church must bestow the gift of the Holy Ghost by the laying on of Hands. (Acts 8:14-17)
9- It practices divine healing. (Mark 3:14-15)
10- It must teach that Jesus Christ and God are separate and distinct individuals. (John 17:11 and John 20:17)
11- It must teach that God and Jesus Christ have bodies of flesh and bone. (Luke 24:36-39 & Acts 1:9-11)
12- The officers of the church must be called by God. (Hebrews 5:4, Exodus 28:1, Exodus 40:13-16)
13- It must claim direct revelation from God. (Amos 3:7)
14- It must be a missionary church. (Matthew 28:19-20)
15- It must be a restored church. (Acts 3:19-20)
16- It must practice baptism for the dead. (1 Corinthians 15, 16 and 29)_
17- By their fruits ye shall know them. (Matthew 7:20)

Why are these things important? Because Jesus Christ didn't change his church. He didn't do away with revelation or prophets. He is the same yesterday, today, and forever. (Hebrews 13:8)

This is the Church of Jesus Christ of Later-day Saints. The only true and living church upon the face of the earth. It has twelve apostles and a living prophet. We hold the priesthood of God as described in the old and new testament. This is the divine authority from God himself to act in His name. The only authority given under heaven to baptize in His name.

This is why I believe my religion is the correct one. It is the restored church, the same one Jesus Christ himself established while he was on the earth.

Answer 8

My religion is the correct one for me. It may not be the religion for everyone. That's okay. I have no desire to shove my dogma down the throats of those we do not believe as I do.

Answer 9

I believe my religion is the correct one for "me"

Answer 10

I know that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the correct one because God is the one that revealed to me that I needed to join it.
