The main problem with what you said is that you have no real proof of what is the real religion and what is false religion. Many people around the world consider Christianity a false religion, and your only proof that Christianity is the one true religion is the Bible. There's not enough evidence to back up what you say. And people would take Christianity more seriously if the Bible god stop this little hibernation period it's in and just show itself. Until then, people just aren't gonna take the words of the Bible on its own seriously. Too much talk, not enough action. People on Earth wanna see proof and action and in the age of the internet, there is no excuse.
And even if the Bible god is letting humans do what they want to prove a point that they "need" god, then it's even more reason to not take seriously the Bible because the Bible god repeatedly said it would protect his followers and all that of course isn't true. The Bible god claims to see and know everything ahead of time, so for the Bible god to be mad at Adam and Eve for rebelling doesn't make any sense. It should have known how flawed its own design was. Words are nice, but action is better. This is the reason why there are so many atheists and non religious people out there. If the Bible god REALLY wants there to be only one "true" religion, it would stop being lazy, get off its ass and show itself. Until then, it's all hearsay.
You honestly do not have to study and compare the teachings of all the many religions. You need only learn what the Bible really teaches about true worship. To illustrate: In many lands, there is a problem with counterfeit money. If you were given the job of picking out such false money, how would you go about it? By memorizing every kind of counterfeit? No. Your time would be better spent if you studied real money. After you knew what real money looked like, you could recognize a counterfeit. Similarly, when we learn how to identify the true religion, we can recognize those religions that are false.
Similarly Jesus warned that false prophets would corrupt Christianity. Outwardly, they seem like true worshipers. Their churches claim to be Christian. But you can recognize such people for what they really are. How? Only true worship produces genuine Christians with recognizable qualities and ways
Notice what Jesus explains to his disciples regarding this matter in
(Matthew 7:13-23) 13 “Go in through the narrow gate, because broad is the gate and spacious is the road leading off into destruction, and many are going in through it; 14 whereas narrow is the gate and cramped the road leading off into life, and few are finding it.
15 “Be on the watch for the false prophets who come to you in sheep’s covering, but inside they are ravenous wolves. 16 By their fruits you will recognize them. Never do people gather grapes from thorns or figs from thistles, do they? 17 Likewise, every good tree produces fine fruit, but every rotten tree produces worthless fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bear worthless fruit, nor can a rotten tree produce fine fruit. 19 Every tree not producing fine fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 Really, then, by their fruits you will recognize those men. 21 “Not everyone saying to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter into the Kingdom of the heavens, but only the one doing the will of my Father who is in the heavens will. 22 Many will say to me in that day: ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and expel demons in your name, and perform many powerful works in your name?’ 23 And then I will declare to them: ‘I never knew you! Get away from me, you workers of lawlessness!’
In other words, those who practice the true religion would be recognized by their beliefs and their conduct.
rue worshippers respect the Bible as God’s Word. They strive to live by its principles. So true religion differs from religion that is based on men’s ideas. (Matthew 15:7-9)7 You hypocrites, Isaiah aptly prophesied about you when he said: 8 ‘This people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far removed from me. 9 It is in vain that they keep worshipping me, for they teach commands of men as doctrines.’” So true worshippers do not preach one thing and practice another.
