If religions teach contradictory things they can’s all be right. They can all be wrong, but they can’t all be right. Why?

Truth is that which lines up with objective reality. Not a reality we invent. What really is in line with the world that really is.

Revelation 20:11–12 ESV

11 Then I saw a great white throne and him who was seated on it. From his presence earth and sky fled away, and no place was found for them. 12 And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Then another book was opened, which is the book of life. And the dead were judged by what was written in the books, according to what they had done.

1 Peter 4:17 ESV

John 5:24 ESV
