How do you know the one true Religion? The one that everyone on the Left despises.

Christian Churches all over the world help the poor, the homeless, and you would think they are pure evil to listen to these hateful bigots. Hollywood spends most of it's time ridiculing false Christians to try and paint the entire faith on the actions of a few. How many movies created by Hollywood portray Christianity in a positive light? I thought the Left loved those who help the poor? Wake up! There is a reason for all this hatred. Christianity is the one true faith! 1

A significant portion of Democrats are part of Christian churches https://www.pewforum.org/ Also Democrats support social welfare programs such as food stamps, WIC, shelters, educational programs, free lunch programs, etc. while many Republicans seek to end these programs designed to help children, poor, the disabled, and elders. Maybe if we spent more time worrying about ensuring government assistance to those in need rather than worrying about how Hollywood portrays a specific religion, the world would be a better place. 1

LIAR! The Republican Party has many times tried to cut "the rate of growth" on social programs, so that our nation does not keep adding debt we could never pay back. These programs constantly have rate increases far out pacing inflation! Republicans are the adults in the room and understand that money does not grow on trees. But like all good liars, you spew Left wing rhetoric saying Republicans want to cut welfare programs for the truly needy. WHAT HAPPENS TO THE POOR WHEN THE MONEY RUNS OUT? Democrats live in a world of Politics first, America last! They will gladly watch this nation go bankrupt as long as they can still usher in Socialism. They live and breathe buying votes on the back of America's solvency. 1

You seem more interested in demonizing the left than actually helping people. I am starting to see that in your comments. It's not about helping children or the poor for you. You have zero interest in actually understanding the perspective of others. More concerned with propping yourself up as better. You are close-minded and have no clue how to conduct actual research. Fighting that with my own humbleness and interest in getting other to open their mind and take in as much information as possible before making a decision...I just cannot do this. I will lose my mind working with your level of hypocrisy.... 1

You did not have to worry about losing your mind, because I would have banned your deceptive rhetoric long before your small mind was lost. You sit there spewing the same lies of how the Left supposedly cares for the poor, WHILE SUPPORTING NO RESTRICTION ABORTIONS OF VIABLE BABIES FOR ANY REASON! You call this true compassion and love for our fellow human beings? Try looking at their motives when handing out tax payer money to buy votes from the poor. You are an absolute hypocritical joke! The Left helps those who will vote for them. IT'S ALL POLITICS TO THEM! They take money from tax payers to buy votes from low income people. Every time we look at the charitable donations from rich Democrats, we find that they give very little to the poor! They are big spenders with other people's money! The Christian Church cares for the poor and spends much of their times helping the poor, but guess what? THEY ALSO SUPPORT HELPING LOW INCOME MOTHERS, WITH CRISIS PREGNANCY CENTERS, SO THAT THESE INNOCENT LIVES ARE NOT SENTENCED TO DEATH BY THOSE SO CALLED COMPASSIONATE PEOPLE ON THE LEFT! The Christian church does not force money from people's paychecks to help the poor! The money they give helping the poor is freely given by Christians! But bigots like you will always find fault with Christian churches while saying little against Islam! Your fixation against Christians proves that Christianity is the one true faith. 1

I'm the one trying to save the lives of unborn lives, while inhuman fools like you want to keep the holocaust legal! Deny what you support every time you pull that lever for Democrats! It's inhumanity and hypocrites like you dare preach about helping the poor? GET OFF DEBATE SITES! YOU ARE TOTALLY BRAINWASHED! 1

Yet, there is no evidence that the left despises any religion as a whole. In fact, there is a significant number of Democrats within every religious group. But I guess some people can confuse respecting the separation of church and state, and the consideration of other people's religious beliefs with hating a major religion. 1

That's one way. I have some Scripture for the non-Christians, who will show up. John 14:6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. John 10 “Truly, truly, I say to you, he who does not enter the sheepfold by the door but climbs in by another way, that man is a thief and a robber. 2 But he who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. 3 To him the gatekeeper opens. The sheep hear his voice, and he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. 4 When he has brought out all his own, he goes before them, and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice. 5 A stranger they will not follow, but they will flee from him, for they do not know the voice of strangers.” 6 This figure of speech Jesus used with them, but they did not understand what he was saying to them. 7 So Jesus again said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep. 8 All who came before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them. 9 I am the door. If anyone enters by me, he will be saved and will go in and out and find pasture. 10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly. 11 I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. 12 He who is a hired hand and not a shepherd, who does not own the sheep, sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and flees, and the wolf snatches them and scatters them. 13 He flees because he is a hired hand and cares nothing for the sheep. 14 I am the good shepherd. I know my own and my own know me, 15 just as the Father knows me and I know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep. 16 And I have other sheep that are not of this fold. I must bring them also, and they will listen to my voice. So there will be one flock, one shepherd. 17 For this reason the Father loves me, because I lay down my life that I may take it up again. 18 No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to take it up again. This charge I have received from my Father.” 19 There was again a division among the Jews because of these words. 20 Many of them said, “He has a demon, and is insane; why listen to him?” 21 Others said, “These are not the words of one who is oppressed by a demon. Can a demon open the eyes of the blind?” 22 At that time the Feast of Dedication took place at Jerusalem. It was winter, 23 and Jesus was walking in the temple, in the colonnade of Solomon. 24 So the Jews gathered around him and said to him, “How long will you keep us in suspense? If you are the Christ, tell us plainly.” 25 Jesus answered them, “I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in my Father's name bear witness about me, 26 but you do not believe because you are not among my sheep. 27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. 28 I give them eternal life, and they will never perish, and no one will snatch them out of my hand. 29 My Father, who has given them to me,[a] is greater than all, and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father's hand. 30 I and the Father are one.” 31 The Jews picked up stones again to stone him. 32 Jesus answered them, “I have shown you many good works from the Father; for which of them are you going to stone me?” 33 The Jews answered him, “It is not for a good work that we are going to stone you but for blasphemy, because you, being a man, make yourself God.” 34 Jesus answered them, “Is it not written in your Law, ‘I said, you are gods’? 35 If he called them gods to whom the word of God came—and Scripture cannot be broken— 36 do you say of him whom the Father consecrated and sent into the world, ‘You are blaspheming,’ because I said, ‘I am the Son of God’? 37 If I am not doing the works of my Father, then do not believe me; 38 but if I do them, even though you do not believe me, believe the works, that you may know and understand that the Father is in me and I am in the Father.” 39 Again they sought to arrest him, but he escaped from their hands. 40 He went away again across the Jordan to the place where John had been baptizing at first, and there he remained. 41 And many came to him. And they said, “John did no sign, but everything that John said about this man was true.” 42 And many believed in him there. The Holy Bible, English Standard Version. ESV® Text Edition: 2016.

Thanks for showing God's words to the truth of there being only one way to Heaven. The world wants to believe that by being supposedly good people, they will get to Heaven. The problem with that lie is that nobody is good. These people who think they can work their way to Heaven, support killing unborn babies when voting for Pro abortion politicians. They actually think they are good people! The human race is a fallen bunch of people who deserve judgment were it not for Christ dying for their sins. 1

You're welcome. Jesus is the love of my life. He has saved my physical life, as well, as saving my spiritual life. What Jesus did on the Cross, was so beautiful. Besides that, John 11 shows Jesus feeling the pain of His lambs, when He wept, in verse 35. Here it is: https://www.blueletterbible. John 11 Now a certain man was sick, Lazarus of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha. 2 It was that Mary who anointed the Lord with fragrant oil and wiped His feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick. 3 Therefore the sisters sent to Him, saying, “Lord, behold, he whom You love is sick.” 4 When Jesus heard that, He said, “This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified through it.” 5 Now Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus. 6 So, when He heard that he was sick, He stayed two more days in the place where He was. 7 Then after this He said to the disciples, “Let us go to Judea again.” 8 The disciples said to Him, “Rabbi, lately the Jews sought to stone You, and are You going there again?” 9 Jesus answered, “Are there not twelve hours in the day? If anyone walks in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world. 10 But if one walks in the night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him.” 11 These things He said, and after that He said to them, “Our friend Lazarus sleeps, but I go that I may wake him up.” 12 Then His disciples said, “Lord, if he sleeps he will get well.” 13 However, Jesus spoke of his death, but they thought that He was speaking about taking rest in sleep. 14 Then Jesus said to them plainly, “Lazarus is dead. 15 And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, that you may believe. Nevertheless let us go to him.” 16 Then Thomas, who is called the Twin, said to his fellow disciples, “Let us also go, that we may die with Him.” 17 So when Jesus came, He found that he had already been in the tomb four days. 18 Now Bethany was near Jerusalem, about [a]two miles away. 19 And many of the Jews had joined the women around Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother. 20 Then Martha, as soon as she heard that Jesus was coming, went and met Him, but Mary was sitting in the house. 21 Now Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died. 22 But even now I know that whatever You ask of God, God will give You.” 23 Jesus said to her, “Your brother will rise again.” 24 Martha said to Him, “I know that he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day.” 25 Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live. 26 And whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die. Do you believe this?” 27 She said to Him, “Yes, Lord, I believe that You are the Christ, the Son of God, who is to come into the world.” 28 And when she had said these things, she went her way and secretly called Mary her sister, saying, “The Teacher has come and is calling for you.” 29 As soon as she heard that, she arose quickly and came to Him. 30 Now Jesus had not yet come into the town, but [b]was in the place where Martha met Him. 31 Then the Jews who were with her in the house, and comforting her, when they saw that Mary rose up quickly and went out, followed her, [c]saying, “She is going to the tomb to weep there.” 32 Then, when Mary came where Jesus was, and saw Him, she fell down at His feet, saying to Him, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died.” 33 Therefore, when Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who came with her weeping, He groaned in the spirit and was troubled. 34 And He said, “Where have you laid him?” They said to Him, “Lord, come and see.” 35 Jesus wept. 36 Then the Jews said, “See how He loved him!” 37 And some of them said, “Could not this Man, who opened the eyes of the blind, also have kept this man from dying?” 38 Then Jesus, again groaning in Himself, came to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone lay against it. 39 Jesus said, “Take away the stone.” Martha, the sister of him who was dead, said to Him, “Lord, by this time there is a stench, for he has been dead four days.” 40 Jesus said to her, “Did I not say to you that if you would believe you would see the glory of God?” 41 Then they took away the stone [d]from the place where the dead man was lying. And Jesus lifted up His eyes and said, “Father, I thank You that You have heard Me. 42 And I know that You always hear Me, but because of the people who are standing by I said this, that they may believe that You sent Me.” 43 Now when He had said these things, He cried with a loud voice, “Lazarus, come forth!” 44 And he who had died came out bound hand and foot with graveclothes, and his face was wrapped with a cloth. Jesus said to them, “Loose him, and let him go.” 45 Then many of the Jews who had come to Mary, and had seen the things Jesus did, believed in Him. 46 But some of them went away to the Pharisees and told them the things Jesus did. 47 Then the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered a council and said, “What shall we do? For this Man works many signs. 48 If we let Him alone like this, everyone will believe in Him, and the Romans will come and take away both our place and nation.” 49 And one of them, Caiaphas, being high priest that year, said to them, “You know nothing at all, 50 nor do you consider that it is expedient for [e]us that one man should die for the people, and not that the whole nation should perish.” 51 Now this he did not say on his own authority; but being high priest that year he prophesied that Jesus would die for the nation, 52 and not for that nation only, but also that He would gather together in one the children of God who were scattered abroad. 53 Then, from that day on, they plotted to put Him to death. 54 Therefore Jesus no longer walked openly among the Jews, but went from there into the country near the wilderness, to a city called Ephraim, and there remained with His disciples. 55 And the Passover of the Jews was near, and many went from the country up to Jerusalem before the Passover, to purify themselves. 56 Then they sought Jesus, and spoke among themselves as they stood in the temple, “What do you think—that He will not come to the feast?” 57 Now both the chief priests and the Pharisees had given a command, that if anyone knew where He was, he should report it, that they might seize Him. -1
