Is Christianity right?

Yes!!!

Christianity, the religion by believed by 2 Billion people world wide, is the Religion of Peace.

There are an estimated 2.2 Billion Christians worldwide. It is also estimated there is a Christian in EVERY country on Earth. Thats 33% of all people on Earth.

Why is Christianity the right way?

Mormonism teaches that there are many gods in existence and that you can become a god.  Christianity teaches that there is only one God and you cannot become a god.  Islam teaches that Jesus is not God in flesh where Christianity does.  Jesus cannot be both God and not God at the same time.  Some religions teach that we reincarnate while others do not.  Some teach there is a hell and others do not. They cannot all be true.  If they cannot all be true, it cannot be true that all religions lead to God.  Furthermore, it means that some religions are, at the very least, false in their claims to reveal the true God (or gods).  Remember, truth does not contradict itself.  If God exists, He will not institute mutually exclusive and contradictory belief systems in an attempt to get people to believe in Him.  God is not the author of confusion (1 Cor. 14:33).  Therefore, it is reasonable to believe that there can be an absolute spiritual truth and that not all systems can be true regardless of whether or not they claim to be true.  There must be more than a mere claim. Christianity  is true because it was predicted that thousands of years ago, a King of the Jews (Jesus) will die for the sins of the world, and will RISE! (Good Friday/Easter) There were thousands of Eye – Witnesses to confrim what had happened.

Jesus NEVER proclaimed himself God!

Did he now? Then why are there over 25 Verses where he specifically says so?

Nope! And, the Bible Proclaims that the Trinity IS there!

The Trinity is merely 3 Persons of 1. To put it into math terms…

1

1/3

The one on top matched with the one on bottom means that any one of the Trinity IS God by themselves.

The one on the top matched with the three on the bottom means the one is a part of the Trinity.

  1. Genesis 1:26
  2. Genesis 19:24
  3. Isaiah 6  
  4. Isaiah 40-55
  5. Isaiah 45:23-24
