    The one that assures us of eternity in Heaven if we admit our sinfulness. Make a conscious decision to turn from it (Repent) and through Faith, Trust or Commit our lives to Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. It's the only one given by the God who created all things. It's Christianity.

    The one that meets these simple standards:

    (1) On what are its teachings based? Are they from God, or are they largely from men? (2 Tim. 3:16; Mark 7:7) Ask, for example: Where does the Bible teach that God is a Trinity? Where does it say that the human soul is immortal?

    (2) Consider whether it is making known the name of God. Jesus said in prayer to God: “I have made your name manifest to the men you gave me out of the world.” (John 17:6) He declared: “It is Jehovah your God you must worship, and it is to him alone you must render sacred service.” (Matt. 4:10) Has your religion taught you that ‘it is Jehovah you must worship’? Have you come to know the Person identified by that name—his purposes, his activities, his qualities—so that you feel you can confidently draw close to him?

    (3) Is true faith in Jesus Christ being demonstrated? This involves appreciation of the value of the sacrifice of Jesus’ human life and of his position today as heavenly King. (John 3:36; Ps. 2:6-8) Such appreciation is shown by obeying Jesus—sharing personally and zealously in the work that he assigned to his followers. True religion has such faith that is accompanied by works.—Jas. 2:26.

    (4) Is it largely ritualistic, a formality, or is it a way of life? God strongly disapproves of religion that is merely a formalism. (Isa. 1:15-17) True religion upholds the Bible’s standard of morality and clean speech instead of weakly going along with popular trends. (1 Cor. 5:9-13; Eph. 5:3-5) Its members reflect the fruits of God’s spirit in their lives. (Gal. 5:22, 23) So, those who adhere to true worship can be identified because they sincerely endeavor to apply Bible standards in their lives not only at their places of meeting but in their family life, at their secular work, in school, and in recreation.

    (5) Do its members truly love one another? Jesus said: “By this all will know that you are my disciples, if you have love among yourselves.” (John 13:35) Such love reaches across racial, social, and national boundaries, drawing people together in genuine brotherhood. So strong is this love that it sets them apart as being truly different. When the nations go to war, who have enough love for their Christian brothers in other lands that they refuse to take up arms and kill them? That is what early Christians did.

    (6) Is it truly separate from the world? Jesus said that his true followers would be “no part of the world.” (John 15:19) To worship God in a manner that he approves requires that we keep ourselves “without spot from the world.” (Jas. 1:27) Can that be said of those whose clergy and other members are involved in politics, or whose lives are largely built around materialistic and fleshly desires?—1 John 2:15-17.

    (7) Are its members active witnesses concerning God’s Kingdom? Jesus foretold: “This good news of the kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations; and then the end will come.” (Matt. 24:14) What religion is really proclaiming God’s Kingdom as the hope of mankind instead of encouraging people to look to human rulership to solve their problems? Has your religion equipped you to share in this activity, and to do it from house to house as Jesus taught his apostles to do?—Matt. 10:7, 11-13; Acts 5:42; 20:20.

    None.

    Only God's righteousness (The New Covenant established by Jesus Christ) is correct, because God himself never had or asked us to form a religion.

    Not sure any religion has it right. As 1 John 1:8-10 points out three types of people. The religious, the repentant, and the non-nonreligious. The one who agrees with God's view about them is the only right place to be.

    "If we say that we have no sin, we are deceiving ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar and His word is not in us."

    True religion is not found in any religion.  True religion is in people who conform to James 1:27.  "This is pure and undefiled religion in the sight of our God and Father, to visit orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself unstained by the world."

    You gotta have love for the hurting, and you have to avoid being polluted by the sinful ways of the world.

    That would be the one whose founder clearly demonstrated that He was God, by constantly doing things only God could do. All other religions are just manmade traditions.

    The God of Abraham religions are the closest to having it right by worshipping the right God.

    Source(s): The God of Abraham our Intelligent Designer and the missing link in the chain of evolution and is the single common ancestor of all life on earth.

    NOBODY COME AT ME THIS IS MY OPINION

    i think no religion is the right one, because nobody will ever know what controls the universe, what happens when we die, the meaning of life etc. The human mind is just not capable of knowing that

    TRUE CHRISTIANITY, the oldest religion, obeys: Will of God = Name of God = Word of God = Mind of God = Son of God = Thought of God = Image of God = Desire of God = CHRIST = GOSPEL = FIRE, etc....

    "Christ" was not Jesus' last name.
