First i want to know why there are so many religions? also I want to know is because religions has anyone ever though that this would be the way to create ultimate chaos with so many different kinds of religions? it makes it so everyone is never united under one cause.

The word "religion" implies a structured approach to accepting and worshipping God through Jesus Christ. In fact, there is no "structure" involved. God's salvation for each of us is by His amazing Grace, a precious Gift, received when we acknowledge Jesus as Savior.

Please check out the "Christian Advice" forum!!

Be blessed as you do!!

OOPS ... looks like you are offline..... Read Romans 10:8-13, Romans 8:1, Ephesians 2:8-9, John 5:24. They endorse salvation by Grace through Faith!!

There is an old story about blind men and an elephant. One blind man felt the tail and said, "Oh this is a rope." One felt the ear and said, "Oh this is a fan." One felt the trunk and said, "Oh this is a snake." One felt the leg and said, "Oh this is a pillar." Yet they were all sensing the same elephant. It was definitely a real elephant.

Have you ever thought that the reason there are so many religions and the reason atheists prey is that there is a God shapped hole inside everyone.
Can you explain why atheists say, God, Jesus etc as an exclamation?
Why do they use words with a very definite meaning?

Have you ever examine the facts of Jesus's life, death, burial and resurrection?
Are you able to give an explanation that uses historical facts?

Christianity is often describe of as a religion but in it truest sense it is a relationship. The Bible tells us how Jesus as God's Only Begotten Son, died for the world's sins that by His death and resurrection anyone who believe in Him could become the adopted children of God. God didn't just want followers He want family members to fellowship with.

Every other religion of this world try from fallen men's side to get right with God. But in Christianity it is God working thru His Son's power to make us right in His sight. All other religion also have a grave with the founders dead body still in it. Christianity's Founder grave is empty by the Power of Jesus Christ who overcome death. Pretty much all of Jesus Apostles died horrible deaths to spread this truth.
