I believe a big challenge in life is getting along with people you meet, people you work with, and people you live with; because we are all different and one cannot understand why the opposing person is not like them.
Religion May Cause A Conflict
There are many different types of religions out there in the World. The top religion in the World is Christianity. This religion has about 2.1 billion believers world wide. This religion believes in only on God. He is omnipotent, omnipresent, and omniscient. They believe the Universe was created in six days. He created all the animals and even the insects. He created Man and created Woman from the rib of Man. They also believe in angels and one that fell from Heaven. His name is Lucifer, known as Satan. He creates evil and leads people astray. The only way to get Salvation is to believe in God and Jesus Christ, who was born of a virgin, lived, died, and rose again on the third day. He stayed on Earth for forty days and then ascended into Heaven. One day He will return and take those who believe in Him to Heaven.
Christianity
Christianity is the World’s largest religion. It has been going since the birth, Crucifixion, and Resurrection of Jesus Christ. Although the Earth has been here for thousands or millions of years, depending on what you believe, He was only here 2000 years ago. Today His ministry has grown a religion that is now the largest religion in the World.
The Holy Bible: Here Are Some Bible Verse To Read
- There is only one God (Isaiah 43:10; 44:6, 8; John 17:3; 1 Corinthians 8:5-6; Galatians 4:8-9).
- God is omniscient or “knows all things” (Acts 15:18; 1 John 3:20).
-
God is omnipotent or “all powerful” (Psalm 115:3; Revelation 19:6).
-
God is omnipresent or “present everywhere” (Jeremiah 23:23, 24; Psalm 139).
-
God is the creator of everything that exists (Genesis 1:1; Isaiah 44:24)
-
Humans were created by God in the image of God (Genesis 1:26-27).
-
Those who reject Jesus Christ will go to hell forever after they die (Revelation 20:11-15, 21:8).
-
There will be a rapture of the church (Matthew 24:30-36, 40-41; John 14:1-3; 1 Corinthians 15:51-52; 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17; 2 Thessalonians 2:1-12).
I grew up as a Christian and I still believe today. Even through some of my hard times in life God has been there for me.
Islam
Islam is similar to Christianity and Judaism. All believe in One God. Although what one religion may see as a prophet another religion may not. Islam covers about 1.2 billion people world wide and it is growing. It may grow even larger than Christianity.
Why Can’t All Just Get Along
Since the beginning of Earth there has been a religious war going on. All cultures have a religious back, even atheism. We all have our own beliefs and who we believe is God. Maybe just maybe everyone is right or everyone is wrong. What if we knew the truth by being all-knowing. I would not want that because knowing a little is good, too much can be a bad thing. We all just need to get along.
Knowledge May Cause Conflicts
People believe knowledge is power. I believe this to a point. If one wants to learn about advertising then they need to gain knowledge. There are books, websites, college, and more. The more knowledge on gains about advertising the more power one gains to be an expert advertiser, but one may lose knowledge in everyday task like cooking, cleaning, maintaining your car, socializing, and more. Just because one has great knowledge in one area does not give them power. One should not abuse power either. The college graduate with 20 years work experience has great knowledge, a newbie with no experience and only two years work experience has little knowledge; should the college graduate ever tear down the newbie due to lack of knowledge? I do not think so. With great power comes great responsibility
.
One who has more knowledge has greater responsibility to pass that knowledge on to others. Passing knowledge on can be in many different ways like teaching, advice, setting an example, mature actions, and more. If you know you have more knowledge than another person do not be arrogant, be humble and share your knowledge to make this World a better place.
