Is there one right religion?

by Jennifer Foote

Created on: January 12, 2007   Last Updated: May 08, 2007

From my own personal experience my answer to this question is a resounding YES! According to the Christian BIBLE Christianity is the only religion that is "right" in the meaning of Christians are the ones connected with God. All other religions are idea-based. Christianity is fact-based.

I know this personally because I am a Christian and I have also been there-done that trying to test my beliefs. I found out that paganism is not for me. When I was in college I was having an identity problem, was the typical teen trying out new things and new friends, as well as beliefs. I met some people who weren't Christian and who had quite a convincing story about their beliefs so I tried to see things from their way.

Yes Wicca is cool to some people but it is very misunderstood. Wicca is an earth based religion not some reason to only dress in dark clothes with bleached white faces. I found this out too as this was another road I attempted to travel on. I have met some very nice Wiccans but not all people who claim to be Wiccans are. There are some people who claim to be Wiccan but rather than practicing good actually do the opposite. And unlike what most people believe Paganism and Wiccanism are not the same thing.

I have learned for me that Christianity and having Jesus in my life as my one true personal Savior is the only way. I am not saying its the way for everyone but in my heart as I said before my answer is a resounding YES! Being a Christian is my belief system and my life and I know God is real because when I am dealing with all the stress of life He is how I keep sane and centered and am able to concentrate on the things I hold near and dear to me, my friends and family. He is who shows that even with the world at war, there is hope. He is literally the Alpha and the Omega and that's all there is to it.
