Hello, my name is Deborah.

I do not like to use the word religion, as I believe man has contaminated it.
I prefer the term Spirituality, because I believe that is from god.
My faith is basically the Christian faith. But I believe that all faiths are based on the laws of Moses. (Meaning these basic laws are very similar for all) Just called differently. Therefore I believe we all came from the same place and we are the same people. One race to me matters, that is humanity.

1 Corinthians 10:31-32 (New International Version)
31So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God. 32Do not cause anyone to stumble, whether Jews, Greeks or the church of God—
This means, avoid offending followers of other faiths.

The greatest of the commandments from god are

Code: Select all

Mark 12:30-31 (New International Version)
30Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.'[a] 31The second is this: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'[b]There is no commandment greater than these."
Therefore I believe the most God wants from us, is to learn to Love god and humanity with all our heart and soul.

Hello, bienvenidos, willkommen, bonveno, welcome to the forums.

I don't mean to start a debate here, but I just had one question about your post. Can you reasonably claim that all faiths are based on the laws of Moses?

All the faiths I have looked into seem to want to achieve a love and respect for humanity. and there "rules" if you like, to achieve this are all similar to the laws of moses. perhaps "based on" wasn't the right phrase to use.
