The Only Source of Truth?

[seven_segment]

---

JAS 1:17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom can be no variation, nor turning shadow.
JAS 1:18 Of his own will he brought us forth by the word of truth, that we should be a kind of first fruits of his creatures.
JAS 1:19 So, then, my beloved brothers, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, and slow to anger;
JAS 1:20 for the anger of man doesn't produce the righteousness of God.
JAS 1:21 Therefore, putting away all filthiness and overflowing of wickedness, receive with humility the implanted word, which is able to save your souls{or, preserve your life.}.
JAS 1:22 But be doers of the word, and not only hearers, deluding your own selves.
JAS 1:23 For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man looking at his natural face in a mirror;
JAS 1:24 for he sees himself, and goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was.
JAS 1:25 But he who looks into the perfect law of freedom, and continues, not being a hearer who forgets, but a doer of the work, this man will be blessed in what he does.
JAS 1:26 If anyone among you thinks himself to be religious while he doesn't bridle his tongue, but deceives his heart, this man's religion is worthless.
JAS 1:27 Pure religion and undefiled before our God and Father is this: to visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained by the world.
JAS 2:1 My brothers, don't hold the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ of glory with partiality.
JAS 2:2 For if a man with a gold ring, in fine clothing, comes into your synagogue{or, meeting}, and a poor man in filthy clothing also comes in;
JAS 2:3 and you pay special attention to him who wears the fine clothing, and say, "Sit here in a good place;" and you tell the poor man, "Stand there," or "Sit by my footstool;"
JAS 2:4 haven't you shown partiality among yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts?
JAS 2:5 Listen, my beloved brothers. Didn't God choose those who are poor in this world to be rich in faith, and heirs of the Kingdom which he promised to those who love him?
JAS 2:6 But you have dishonored the poor man. Don't the rich oppress you, and personally drag you before the courts?
JAS 2:7 Don't they blaspheme the honorable name by which you are called?

[Tobi]

Can there be only one true religion? Can that religion alone possesses the truth? And IS THERE A RELIGION HIGHER THAN TRUTH? Answer these questions objectively kuno. Let's see if you are not biased!

ang religion lagi bro, part na siya sa Truth.
