What do you believe in?? I hope you believe in God, the almighty.
The weird thing is we have different ways of looking at this God, each one of our faiths gives a reflection of who God is and slight differences also do exist.
The ideas of God and faith creates blocks that has differing views or rather idea of everything that God stands for. Let’s take a look just for a minute on this “Christianity block”, these of us who believe that God sent his only son to die on the cross for our sins. That Emmanuel “Jesus” is a part of holy trinity that includes him, God and Holy ghost.
Even though most of us Christians believe on all that, still we have our very deep differences. Put aside the fact that we have different worshiping days but we also have different prayers, seems whoever translated our prayers from whichever language they originated from was not that competent or he/ she added stuffs according to his or her understanding; I deeply believe it was a man who did this mess though.
Seventh-Day Sabbath (SDA) believes what we’ve been calling Saturday is actually that big day that God decided to put everything aside and just rest; it’s the day we are all supposed to do nothing but thank God for everything he has done for us; bad and good we have been through. There are couple of other not well known religions that rests and prays on Saturday and truth be told, I have never seen any other denomination that is highly vested in doing the right thing (Resting on seventh day) as SDA people.
I am a Catholic, in my opinion one of the very loose denominations in the world. Our day is Sunday, which is supposedly the first day of the week and we do not necessarily rest on this day; we just go to church.
In my eyes, my religion is weird as there are things that I don’t approve of and I totally don’t understand but so is your religion.
It’s unfortunate or fortunate depending on the way you look at it, my friends all belong to different faith and none of them is Catholic like me. What bugs me the most is some of the people who slaps others on the face with their religions thinking theirs is the best religion in the world.
We divide ourselves basing on who prays on which day, who is the symbol of your religion/ denomination etc.
One of strongest words I ever read reflected on God, the writer made a statement on the difference we people have and concluded that God did all that to see how we would treat each other.
I pray to God and my prayers are granted, Muslims pray to Allah who is essentially as Godly as my God is and their prayers are answered, Protestants do the same and receive all the glory.
Every other religion and denomination (To me) is super weird, there are things I hear others do and just grin thinking how different our perception of God is and as far as I know, my denomination chuckles some people. Your faith is perfect in your eyes but not in everyone else’s, but it is as important as going to heaven respecting what other people’s beliefs.
Your truth is not a universal truth, don’t force everyone to see things from your perspective.
