Why do ALL organized Christian religions think they are the only true Christians and others are bad?

Sweeping statements such as yours are rarely accurate.  So what's your real question?  You may have a masters in theology, but not be a Christian yourself.  Let's just BE Christians!

My My am I supposed to be afraid. Maybe I should . Obviously you are mentally challenged and I don't want you to overdose on your Meds. First off I doubt if you even have a GED.  I would like to first explain that a M.S. Degree is a Master of Science Degree and Theology although I believe it to be true it is NOT a Science. I have a B.A. Degree that I obtained at The Alter. Oh yeah B.A. stands for Born Again. My "organized Christian religion" happens to believe that you can be in any Denomination or Church and if you Believe in Christ Jesus and have had a Born Again experience that you are saved. And I believe you are demonic by your choice of Names and by your Tag. A learned person in Theology would have a Master of Arts Degree....duhhhh. But you can still be saved because Jesus came to save that which or in your case {witch} is lost. John 3:16 For whosoever believes on Jesus shall be saved. So there is still time for you. So ask God to forgive you for being a LIAR and whatever other sins you have committed, for we all have sinned. Ask Jesus to come into your heart and you can be saved. So as I stated my answer to your question is that all Church Denominations are not saying we are the only ones saved.  Smile Jesus Loves You! Witches  that confront The Holy Spirit and The Name of JESUS .....FLEE FAST!

What Micheal said!

    Why would one with an MS in theology and who claims to be a "historian in Christianity" ask such a question? If this statement is true of you then this is a "loaded" question, for what purpose I can't understand. You aught to already have the answer to your question via Dartmouth College.                                                 All religions do not think, "They are the only true Christians and the others are bad." (with a certain few exceptions.)  I don't believe you for a moment.                      By the way, having a master's degree from any man made institution is not a badge of your Christianity nor an assurance of your salvation. A masters degree only gives you "head knowledge" You can't bypass the need for complete surrender to the Lord Jesus Christ to gain access to the Sovereign God.

My goodness: such blue-bloods, I only love Him & fallow His words, I'm much too stupid to joust at word with the worldly educated. 

In America, especially, many of the mainline denominations have learned to take their "exclusivity" somewhat tongue-in-cheek. That is to say, the Presbyterians think the Methodists may also be on to something; the Methodists think the Baptists believe the same as they do, only with a little more fire; and many Baptists are impressed with the measured faith of the Lutherans, or the liturgies of the Episcopalians.

Apart from that, to use the word "all" in a question is to describe an artificial situation that does more to inflame the emotions than to seek a reasonable answer.

(BTW, if you have all that education — "an MS in theology " and "a Historian of Christianity and 'the Bible,' " then you should know there is no apostrophe in "its many incarnations "?)

Why do ALL organized Christian religions think they are the only true Christians and others are bad

1* ORGANIZED RELIGIONS ;

 what organized religions grew out of was a fight between Greek and Jewish widows , fighting over provisions ACTS 6:1-4 THE DICIPLES CALLED OUT SEVEN TO BABYSIT THE CONGREGATION ; SO THAT THE DICIPLES COULD CONTINUE WITH THE TRUE MISSION OF THE CHURCH, TO TELL THE GOSPLE STORY. this baby set group needed to be keep busy; and activities were formed for them. they were given songs to sing and stories were told to them. ( today they are the sermons like when jesus feed the 5000 he took a boy's lunch "a lunchable" and turned it into the food for the 5000.* lunchable is added for this group ; for neither the teacher nor the congregation knows the deeper meaning of the story) as time moves forwards and the disciples of Jesus died off new people must come forwards to lead the church ; but remember this church is for those who must be keep busy so they wont fight over the provisions and are not what the disciples did at the beginning of their inception.( this church of organized religion) who will lead this group-? at first we have the apostolic father ie; polycarp. but when polycarp dies he is the last one to have known the apostles of jesus personally. now , the door is open and many start to tell their story and proclaim they have the story , the church world responds back with a tradition; to tell the story you must have apostolic succession ; that is you must have been taught by one of the apostolic father and you must have had "hands" laid upon you so that the holy spirit will help you keep the words of what the apostles of jesus said "true" *  --- this is what tradition was; but let us move up in time to martin Luther and the protestant reformation. no matter if you agree or disagree with martin Luther ; he does something that changes everything !!! he translates and prints the bible ( along with others) and puts the "true" words of the apostles into the hands of the common man. THUS; !!! NULLIFING THE NEED FOR APOSTALIC SUCCESSION!!!  BUT THIS TRADITION HAS BEEN MOLDED BY THE BABY SET CHURCH TO BE THINGS ( MYSTERIOUS THINGS "LOL" THAT YOU THE COMMON MAN MAY NOT KNOW) BUT THIS IS NOT WHAT THE ORIGINAL TRADTION WAS OR ITS PURPOSE ; FOR ITS PURPOSE WAS ALWAYS TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU THE COMMON MAN WHOULD HAVE THE "TRUE" WORDS OF THE APOSTLES . AND THESE ARE THE APOSTLES WHO APPOINTED THE SEVEN INORDER THAT THEY WOULD NOT BE HINDERED BY THE QUARLS OF THE BABY SET CHURCH.

2 * TRUE CHRISTIAN RELIGION;

would be of that which the apostles did at the time of the fight over provisions of the greek and jewish widows, and that is move on with the telling of the good news of the gosple story. FOR THEY HAD A MISSION TO GIVE WITNESS TO THE GOOD NEWS OF THE GOSPLE ; THAT IS GOD IS NOT AGAINST YOU ; HE HAS SENT HIS SON ( JESUS) TO BECOME A KINSMAN REDEEMER FOR YOU ; TO BRING YOU WHO ARE IN THE DARKNESS BACK INTO THE (FAMILY) LIGHT.god is no longer against you. he sent his son to be a kinsman redeemer.

THE KINSMAN REDEEMER; 

                                 if a man became so poor that he could not pay his debt ( sin) he was sold into slavery. however he could be redeemed from this slavery if he had a kinsman redeemer. the kinsman redeemer would have to meet 3 conditions.                                                                                     1- he would have to have the price jesus lived the perfect life and is not subject to death that sin brings   2- he would have to pay the price jesus died not deserving death and now is owed life he is willing to give this life to all who meet condition number 3                                                                                                                   3- he must be of kin when eve at the tree of knowledge listened to the stranger " eat, you will not die " she didnt listen to her family (god) " don't eat ; you will die" and in essence she left the family what we must do is accept jesus as family; as a kinsman redeemer

3 * OTHER RELIGIONS; 
 SO WHAT OF THESE OTHER RELIGIONS , FROM OTHER PLACES -? MANY PEOPLE LOOK AT THE STORIES THAT SEEM TO BORROWED FROM PAGAN RELIGIONS AND FAIL TO REALIZE THAT AFTER THE FLOOD IT WAS THE 3 SONS OF NOAH WHO BROUGHT THE STORIES OF THE PREFLOOD WORLD ACROSS TO THIS NEW WORLD. 
1) what of egypt and their gods ; and of babylon, persia, and greece -?  
2) what of the chinese and thier gods, druids, and the history of the first people of ireland -?
3) what of the god(s) of the muslims , and of the jews-?
-  1 *is this not by ham; ie THOTH and the path of his journey to build the city of atlantis                       ( but thats another story)
- 2 * is this not japheth and the journey of his sons ( for ireland read ; history of ireland by keating )
- 3 *are not both of these groups of shem -? with their division being at the very point of abrahams sons-?
so; all mentions of god (s) is brought into the post flood world by these 3 sons of noah.
now which of these god(s) or religions has
* a kinsman redeemer-?                                                                                                                * wants us as family-?                                                                                                                   * pays for sin-?

 

Why do ALL organized Christian religions those of the baby set group think they are the only
true Christians witness (tell) the true gospel story ; that is they have a kinsman redeemer ; his name is JESUS 
and others are bad they have no kinsman redeemer
 

I really don't feel that I am in an organized religion.  Gosh its hard for me to organize anything, let alone my religion.  I belong to a church, but first and foremost I am a child of God.  I am born again, saved, packed and ready to leave this world.  I, like the others am having a problem with your acclaim.  If you truly are all that you say you are, then you would know and understand the Scripture, "suffer the witch to die."  You need to die.  Not physical death but die from your sinful ways, die unto Christ.  Regardless of what you are trying to say about organized religion, my thoughts is, that Christ died for all of us, and there is always room for more to come unto Him.  It matters not if I am in a Baptist Church, Lutheran, Holliness or whatever, as long as I have Jesus in my heart, and I can lead some lost soul into the fold, that is really all that is important to me.  It matters not if I am in an organized religion, Jesus is going to come back one day soon and seperate the wheat from the tares and build His own church, so what difference does it really make?  Just be ready to go when He returns.
