How Do We Know It’s the True Church?
1Jn 2:3 And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments.
1Jn 2:4 He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
1Jn 2:5 But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him.
1Jn 2:6 He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.

1Jn 3:6 Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.
1Jn 3:7 Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
1Jn 3:8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
1Jn 3:9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.
1Jn 3:10 In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.


Mat 7:13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
Mat 7:14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
Mat 7:15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
Mat 7:16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
Mat 7:17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
Mat 7:18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
Mat 7:19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
Mat 7:20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.

It would be unfair in some cases if they weren't saved. If someone was brought up in a environment where all they knew andall they were taught about was The Great Ju Ju up the mountain. Then it would be very unfair of God not to consider him

Jesus is the only way.

Not Mary, the Vatican, or works.

Not our own wills.

Not Allah.

Not enlightenment through the teachings of Bhudda.

Just Jesus' fulfillment of the demands of the law.

Can People of All Religions Be Saved?

Yes - absolutely! :cool:

But - only if they are willing to surrender their "religion" for the one true faith... : ;)

Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. ~ Acts 4:12

Religion in and of itself cannot save. It is not a matter of belonging to a religion by way of tradition or own choice. It is a matter of belonging to God, after His choice. Only the person and work of Christ saves God's people.

I'm not Christian, and I believe God has a plan for everyone, in accordance to their behavior. He will separate the Good from the Evil, and the two won't share the same reality.

A good God would not send to hell good people, simply because they had not heard of his "son," or because they didn't care to accept him. Unless one wants to change the definition of good, or paint God as an indecent God.

You can live in that fairytale VisAVisYou or die and find out the TRUTH with sobs and pain eating you unmercilessly, and then it would be too late.

the goodness of GOD does not cover that HE IS ALSO JUST and FAIR, and in HIM is NO RESPECTER OF PERSONS, and that HE HAS SET A WAY For us, and THAT IS JESUS CHRIST. no OTHER WAY ON EARTH, NO OTHER WAY. FINAL. You can surrender or go on a wild goose chase in the path that you take.

JESUS IS THE ONLY WAY, and that is FINAL.
Believe or not believe that is YOUR CHOICE.

i pray that your eyes become opened to the TRUTH that is JESUS CHRIST before you die.

Salvation comes to those who will ACCEPT and LIVE in JESUS CHRIST and JESUS CHRIST IN THEM.
the absence of JESUS is the PRESENCE OF SATAN
the absence of LIFE that is in CHRIST, is the presence of DEATH that is satan
the absence of TRUTH that is JESUS CHRIST, is the presence of DECEIT and lies that is satan

now people can choose to obey JESUS CHRIST, or obey the devil.
as the bible says in
Isa 53:1 Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the LORD revealed?

Who has believed the report that we give them, that JESUS IS THE CHRIST, that in there is no way out of HIM.

Isa 53:3 He(JESUS CHRIST) is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.

and yet in people rejecting him, abusing and mocking him, calling him a fairytale and all sorts of blasphemies He did not stop
HE did this

Isa 53:4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.
Isa 53:5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
but men until now are like this, having seen JESUS do the above for us they still
Isa 53:6 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.
Isa 53:7 He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth.
Isa 53:8 He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? for he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken.
Isa 53:9 And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.
Isa 53:10 Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in his hand.
Isa 53:11 He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities.


Isa 53:12 Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.

I WOULD GLADLY BELIEVE AND WORSHIP JESUS CHRIST just for what THE ABOVE verses say. HE IS WORTHY TO WORSHIPPED. and HE IS THE ONLY WAY Hallelujah!!..

It has not been given over to the saints to judge to condemnation, that is to say whether a person is saved our going to hell, not yet. Yahweh, God, says He will justify the ungodly, and He does this all the time beginning with me. This is a beautiful teaching from our Father, Himself, never to judge, therefore the question of the post is moot for all who believe Yeshua. Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy, amen.

Any judgment received will be based on your works. This commission was given to our Lord because our works are not perfect as are His. We are now innocent of our sin because of His Works. Nothing a person is able to do will pay for his soul for it is very costly .

They can be saved, but they must repent and follow Jesus

Acts 17:30 And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:

Can I be saved if I kill myself.
Don't do it. Try to get some help. I'm suicidal myself. I am to see a psychiatrist tomorrow. I hope he won't put me in a padded room. I know God has a purpose for my existence. He has sent his angels to save me so many times before, so I know He has a purpose.
I was in an auto accident in HS where I fractured my neck. I survived 600 volt shock that killed another man. I was hit and run while riding a motor cycle; leaving me critically injured. I have fallen from a roof top while working. And for some reason God has saved me each time. If I try suicide I would most likely screw that up, and make myself more miserable.
Don't kill yourself. Fight this demon with all you have. Seek help. I know what it feels like to think of suicide. I think of it all the time.

I can only second that. Any religion or even ideology cannot save us. Only Jesus does.
