This world is so miss-guided and uninformed. Yes, there are many religions in this world but religion never saved anyone, a righteous, holy Son does. (John 14:6 KJV) Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. Religion(s) can be established by anyone that chooses to establish them, but the originator of a religion does not automatically take the place of Almighty God. Religions never save anyone it only misguides them. A relationship with the Creator does: a relationship with that One who came to redeem this world provides the WAY unto salvation. Jesus is the WAY, the TRUTH and the LIFE. The WAY, the Way unto Heaven. The WAY unto the Father, because He (God) is so magnificent and commanding, where the Father is will always be Heaven. God wants only the best for His children and He is able to give it to them. (Matthew 14:7 KJV) Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
This world is not looking for the truth. Jesus is that TRUTH. (John 8:32 KJV) And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. The TRUTH (Jesus) sets us free from the bondage of this world, the bondage of sin. Without that truth we are wandering, hopelessly lost in our sins that will take us to that place known as Hell. The opinions of man hold no true relevance and without the truth of His Word, they are only lies and foolishness.
He is LIFE, without LIFE in the form of Jesus the only Son of God, we are dead in our trespasses and sins. When we are dead, we do not desire or cherish the things of God. (Romans 8:5-6 KJV) For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace
The knowledge or wisdom of God is revealed to us by His Holy Spirit, or you could say the Holy Interpreter. When Jesus arose from the dead, He conquered death, He died so that we could live. Until we arrive at a point in our life where we, by faith, can believe and trust upon His holy promises, we will remain ignorant and without hope. It’s just that simple!
