Which is the correct religion?

Question

There are many religions, which religion is true, which religion is the word of god?

To answer this, two sets of questions need to be asked. The first set of questions sets the stage for the second.

ORIGIN - Who established the religion, when, where, how, and why?

OBJECT - What do adherents hope to obtain? Why must they obtain it and how? ? What aids to the faithful have in their pursuit of the object? What do they fear losing (this is a valid and an important question)? What is the relationship between the origin and the object?

The next set of questions revolves around the former.

HISTORY - Has it flourished and if so, how? What has it suffered and overcome - from both without and within - and again, how? Also important: WHY? What influence does it have on the world and its history? What role does the object play? What was the cultural setting and what were the languages and customs from that time?

LEADERSHIP - What is the role of the leadership in respect to the object? Where do they get their authority and how is it to be exercised? Is there a consistent line of leadership and how is it maintained?

CLARITY - What does it teach about the object, how are the doctrines preserved, and how are they clarified and taught? What demands does it make of adherents? How is the object different from that of other religions and beliefs? What texts and traditions support and surround the doctrines?

UNITY AND OUTREACH - Is the religion restricted to one people, tribe, or culture or is it meant to transcend political, cultural, and geographic boundaries? And again, how does it relate to the object?

These questions find the most satisfactory responses in the traditional Catholic faith. The true religion ought to be one whose aim is to not only redeem, but glorify our fallen human nature in the life to come, rather than affirm and encourage. It should be to make man more relatable to God, rather than the other way around (Christ already did so by becoming one of us).

1, a question like this will draw ten people each saying "mine" atheism true islam true etc.

2, the first step is look at people, which religion PROVED to most people. then exclude those most populous, that spread by fear, sword conquest and inquisition because not by proof.

3, one remains. if you find a contradiction in bible start by assuming only one of the 2 versions is true... next pray which...

of them is the true one. sometimes after prayer, you will reread and see a new angle not contradict or which one is the true source. other times no guidance so, just pick one of the versions, temporarily, while waiting for the time god will teach you.

There is no one correct religion. Everyone has the right to believe in whatever they want and find their own path.

Religion is a very personal thing and everyone interprets their own spiritual beliefs differently. Some people follow a specific religion, while others don't have a particular affiliation. All that matters is that you believe in what feels right for you and that you treat others with respect and understanding.

Atheism. Not living in fear of someone/thing, and this being that prevents you from doing nasty, selfish, etc. things to others. You can have a moral code that doesn't come from and isn't dictated by others. And you can not rely on wishthinking to make things happen in your life.

You're not the brightest, hence asking the wrong questions.

Which is the correct language? There are so many languages, and even more dialects?

There main purpose of language is communication. Just as there is only One God and all religions are expressions and rituals to speak to him, from that language or culture.

You wouldn't do well well trying to speak Russian to an American, English only, dullard. Hence why there is more complexity in the world than it needs.

It's not language or religions that are the problem, it's people and their personal cultures and dipshit "feelings".

No one can give you this answer without coming across as pushing their own religion. I personally choose to not be religions and seek relationship with God. You must seek God for yourself to find this answer. Personally I landed on Christianity, but not the religions elements. For me that was after some deep study on other religions and finding the "proof" I needed to believe.

Seek and you will find, the key is to not give up until you do.

In 1688 Emanuel Swedenborg was born. At 50 or in his 50s he used psychic powers 2 talk 2 spirit guides. Among one thing that's the same of people who've had current near death experiences is that Christians n non-Christians go 2 heaven.

In the book "Life After Life" someone had a near death n described it was heavenly. I read that Evangelical Christians don't accept near deaths because it shows a certain religion only doesn't go 2 heavn. Finally a guy did research on near deaths n said God doesn't care what religion u r.

I'm going to go with Homer Simpson on this one and say "Not the Unitarians". I mean, tolerance is great and all, but have you HEARD their hymns? If God  did  favor them, He'd at least send them a Baptist or two.

Biblical Christianity. How would you know? The Holy Spirit testifies of the truth of the gospel and word of God and the Son of God Jesus Christ.

BarryLiverstone · Answer

It’s less about picking the correct religion and more about trying them and deciding which to apply your faith to. Like do you understand the trinity? If not you can learn or ask others to share.
