As I believe that those who believe in the one God there should be only one religion, we should all have a better clarity of the truth, all religions should come together in a greater understanding, to lead the people out of the path towards perdition, which I believe that many are now headed for.

Today the term " Christian" or " Christians " is so varied
Yeah, gotcha.


In your post on the previous page you mentioned people demonstrating or showing what they hold to be truth to actually be truth. I suspect you don't mean that in a sense of reproducible evidence. Or maybe you do? In your view, how does one demonstrate something to be truth?

Oh peter LOL.... you are heading back to our discussion on So Called Reality..

There is what some would call

Absolute Truth

There is what some would call

Relative Truth


What a person feels is true does not make it true for others unless they can clearly demonstrate that its True for others

For example

Person A says.. I believe that we need air/oxygen to live

Person B says... I dont believe that

Person A says.. Let me demonstrate.. places Tape over nose and mouth on Person C ( someone willing to die)

Person C drops dead.

Truth is now good for all.... Its absolute

Now.. Relative Truth

Person A says I believe in God

Person B says I dont believe that.

As of yet Person A has not done a very good job of proving or demonstrating what he is saying is Absolute Truth

Person B has not dont a good Job of Proving there isnt..

So the Truth is Relative in this case

Or some might say even.. Absolute.. just Absolute though in the minds of each individual

Jesus the Son of God came to show us the way, yet many see His teachings the way they want to accept them, not the way t....hink is bread.
.oes not fall in with what they already believe, their false opinions.

Peace and Light
. to consciousness also return but as unconscious spirits, this is perdition.
I hope this clarifies some points for some!

The correlation of the scriptures of various religions was done in a detailed way by several prophets who aimed at the world peace. Even I have done this correlation in major topics like human rebirth, concept of human incarnation etc. The effect of such correlation is not much because the devotees of various religions are neither influenced by the unity of the scriptures nor by the unity of human beings having the same bodies of matter and energy externally and the internal souls made of the same pure awareness.

Scriptures are the concepts given by various forms of God. Devotees feel that these forms of God are totally different from each other. Unless you bring the correlation of the various forms of God belonging to different religions, the problem is not solved in the root. You have to come from top to bottom in the solution for difference. The correlation of unity in the scriptures and in the human beings is an attempt of solving the problem from bottom to top. If you can prove the unity of the forms of God and establish the concept of single God in various religions, the scriptures have to be correlated forcibly because one God cannot speak contradicting concepts in various religions.

Like this if you come from the top for the solution, there is always a tremendous binding force acting on the heads of devotees to correlate the scriptures. Even if some little variations exist in the scriptures, they have to be unified by force in the light of unity of God, who is the single speaker of various scriptures.
