All religions DO NOT lead to God The Bible contains many examples of religions that displease God. Religions fall into two basic categories. |
Category 1: Worshipping false gods
Please take some time to look up the scriptures in your own Bible
The Bible describes the worship of false gods with such terms as “delusion,”
“futility,” and “useless.” (Jeremiah 10:3-5; 16:19, 20) Jehovah
God commanded the ancient nation of Israel: “You must not have any other gods besides me.”
(Exodus 20:3, 23; 23:24) When the Israelites worshipped other gods,
“Jehovah God became enraged.” Numbers 25:3; Leviticus 20:2; Judges 2:13, 14.
God still has the same attitude toward the worship of such “so-called gods.” (1 Corinthians 8:5, 6; Galatians 4:8) He commands those who want to worship him to stop associating with those who practice false religion, saying: “Get out from among them, and separate yourselves.”
If all religions lead people to God, why would God command people to "Get out from among them, and separate yourselves"? (2 Corinthians 6:14-17) |

Category 2:
Worshipping the true God in a way he does not approve
At times, the Israelites worshipped God using beliefs and practices borrowed from the worship
of false gods, but Jehovah God rejected this attempt to mix true religion with false.
(Exodus 32:8; Deuteronomy 12:2-4)
Jesus condemned the religious leaders of his day
because of the way they worshipped God; they made an outward show of being religious,
yet they hypocritically “disregarded the weightier matters of the Law, namely,
justice and mercy and faithfulness.” Matthew 23:23.
God detests religious hypocrisy. (Titus 1:16) Likewise today, only religion that is based on truth leads people to God. This truth is found in the Bible. (John 4:24; 17:17; 2 Timothy 3:16,17) Religions whose teachings conflict with the Bible actually steer people away from the true God. Many teachings that people think come from the Bible have pagan roots. Teachings dating back thousands of years to ancient Babylon, such teachings including the cross, the Trinity, the immortal soul, and eternal torment were borrowed from those who worshipped false gods.
Worship that promotes false teachings is “in vain,” or useless, because it replaces God’s requirements with religious traditions. (Mark 7:7,8). |
All the Religions of this world teach.... When you die, you don't die, you become a spirit Remember.. Satan told Eve "you will not die" |

Of all the religious books The bible is the only source of truth: How can we say this? Because the bible is: 1. The only book that contains godly wisdom and foretells the future. 2. The only book that gives accurate knowledge of satan and his designs. How he corrupts the minds of people steering them away from the truth. 3. The only book that gives accurate knowledge of the true god Jehovah. His purpose for mankind and his beautiful qualities of love and justice. 4. The only book that provides the way to eternal life on earth.(John 17:3) The bible wisdom. The bible records the 12 steps in creation in the correct order.(Gen 1:1-31) Moses had less than one chance in 479 million of just correctly guessing. So obviously he got the information from Jehovah God the creator The bible foretells the future. Foretelling that religious leaders would leave Jesus teachings to teach false stories (2 Tim 4:3,4) Fulfillment: Chrisendom began to teach satan's lies, imortal soul, the trinity, the cross and hell, also foretold that ones who claim to follow the bible would teach satan's lies. (2 Cor 11:13-15) Foretelling more than 2,000 years in advance the year 1914 the beginning of time of the end. Fulfillment: 1914: Major war and the changing attitudes of people. (Matt 24:3-14, 2 Tim:1-5) |
Who is Really behind False Religion?
Your Bible clearly identifies this person, your Bible calls him Satan, which means “Resister.”
Job 1:6.
and Devil, which means “Slanderer.” Revelation 12:9 He is also called Serpent,
which is used in the Bible to mean “Deceiver.” 2 Corinthians 11:3.
Satan has concealed himself so well that many doubt that he is a real person.
We should not be surprised that many people don’t believe that the Devil is real.
Your Bible says that Satan uses deception to accomplish his aims.
2 Thessalonians 2:9, 10; 2 Corinthians 4:4.
Some view Satan the Devil as just a principle or quality of evil that exists inside us.
However, the Bible records a conversation between God and Satan. Job 2:1-6
God is perfect, so he could not have been talking to an evil part of himself.
Also, Satan tempted Jesus, who is free of sin. Matthew 4:8-10; 1 John 3:5

What are Satan's goals
|
1 Peter 5:8
Tells us to "Keep your senses, be watchful! Your adversary, the Devil, walks about like a roaring lion, seeking to devour someone". Clearly, Satan wants us to join him in his rebellion against God. He deceived the first humans into following him. This led to their death. which they passed on to us Romans 5:12 Tells us "That is why, just as through one man sin entered into the world and death through sin, and so death spread to all men because they had all sinned". When Adam and Eve were created, God told them that they would die if they disobeyed Him, Satan told Eve that she would not die. Ask yourself: who lied God or Satan? Remember, Jesus called Satan "the Father of the lie" John 8:44 What was satan's first lie? satan told Eve she would not die, Genesis 3:1-5 she would be like God. The religions teach the same lie. They teach that when someone dies, their soul goes to heaven. They promote the same lie that satan told Eve. "You will not die" Where would Adam and Eve be today if they had not been misled by Satan? If the only mention of them dying was for disobeying God, The truth is, they would be alive today. They would not have died. It is clear, God's purpose was to have obediant man live on earth forever. Why do the religions of the world not teach this basic bible truth?

Bible Truth or false stories. It's your choice
Jesus words at:
Mark 7:7,8 Tell us "It is in vain that they keep worshipping me, for they teach commands of men as doctrines.’ 8 You let go of the commandment of God and cling to the tradition of men.” 2 Timothy 4:3,4 Tell us "For there will be a period of time when they will not put up with the wholesome teaching, but according to their own desires, they will surround themselves with teachers to have their ears tickled. 4 They will turn away from listening to the truth and give attention to false stories." 2 Corinthians 11:13-15 Tell us 13 "For such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. 14 And no wonder, for Satan himself keeps disguising himself as an angel of light. 15 It is therefore nothing extraordinary if his ministers also keep disguising themselves as ministers of righteousness. But their end will be according to their works." Remember: Teachings including the cross, the Trinity, the immortal soul, and eternal torment were borrowed from those who worshipped false gods. Worship that promotes such teachings is “in vain,” or useless, because it replaces God’s requirements with religious traditions.
