Bible Written by MEN ?
One of the most foolish statements quoted by the ignorant, implies that the mere men wrote "whatever they wanted" thereby dismissing the Holy Bible. It is like someone giving a Book Report -having NEVER read that book! This is not only embarrassing -but more seriously -is calling, "GOD a Liar!"
It is very difficult to tamper with history or prophecy once it is recorded, and 1/3 of the Bible is history and prophetic -confirming its TRUTH !
False Religions diminish Jesus & add or subtract Scripture
Atheism -a belief doesn't negate reality!
Atheism believes the unscientific fact that "nothing" produced "something." Every building is proof of a builder, just as every painting is proof of a painter. To think otherwise is to have no reasoning. No amount of time will ever assemble parts of a car -let alone, the complexity of a human being!
Unassisted assembly violates the 2nd law of thermodynamics -as Larry Norman said,
"My room NEVER cleans itself up!"
EVOLUTION -an unproven theory
God destroyed evolution in 1 sentence, "He created them male and female, and blessed them and called them Mankind in the day they were created. (Genesis 5:2)
Funny how evolutionary charts never show both sexes! It would be even more ludicrous to show the dependence for the opposite sex for every species developing at exactly the right stage.
Romanism + Christianity = Roman Catholicism
The most popular "Christian" faith you will meet are Roman Catholics. Despite years of going to Mass, endless prayers and confession -Catholics can't say they are going to heaven with confidence. Jesus said, "You must be born again." (John 3:7)
Christians KNOW this as they have New Life -His Life within. Nothing could be more offensive to GOD than to tell Him His Son's death on the cross wasn't enough!
Mass pretends to pull Jesus off His heavenly throne -to be offered again only in a 'bloodless" sacrifice! "Without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness." (Hebrews 9:22)
Islam -works based
Muslims believe their salvation depends on Allah and do not know how he will judge their works in the end. If a Muslim kills his Muslim neighbour -will Allah be so merciful to be all-forgiving? In man's court -a murderer must be punished. God's standard is even higher whereby the Prophet Jesus said if you hate someone in your heart -you have already committed murder. Jesus also said we are to LOVE those considered enemies.

Mormonism -LDS Latter Day Saints
Similar to Hinduism -Mormonism has millions of gods. The book of Mormon insults the deity of Jesus Christ by saying he is Satan's brother and adds to scripture despite the warning that God will add the plagues described in Revelation to those who do so. The book of Mormon fails:
1. Stating Jesus was born in Jerusalem instead of Bethlehem.
2. No historical evidence for any of their prophets.
3. No temple built in Missouri within the generation of 1832.
Cults keep you from knowing the TRUTH . . .
. . . of Jesus Christ.
If all you can see is what they tell you -cults can convince you “only they” have the truth. Jesus warned of false teachers who are so clever as wolves that they dress up in sheep’s clothing.
How to tell a cult? Any group that teaches Jesus Christ is less than Almighty God -or is merely an angel -is a cult.
Prosperity Gospel -Condemnation rather than commendation.
Jesus sat opposite the treasury observing those who gave.
Jesus never commended the widow -He only commented on what He observed -and if we read what happened before and after this event we see the true meaning.
First Jesus gives a warning against the scribes (the law-makers).
Then we see the result of their deeds -leaving the widow so destitute and conditioned that she gives up all her sustenance.
Finally, we see God’s judgment on a religious system that was so corrupt that “not one stone shall be left upon another” (Luke 21:6)
It is interesting to note that Jesus sits in “Judgment” in this teaching.
The Gospel is DYING to SELF -& living for others!
