Religious texts are source of inspiration and spiritual guidance, it does not fulfill any path to God. There is no one text that is end all be all. And for me by reading all religious texts, you get to see a lot similarities among the faiths and you get to see the differences as well. There is the sensible and nonsensical. But that is not the litmus to prove everything is wrong in every religion. There is no magic bullet. And the tough part and hard truth is that you are alone when it comes to unwavering belief/faith in God or whatever term you would like to use to a path to God. Sorry no one and no religion can give you a short cut.
What does this God do ? From my experience, it is responsible for creation, it sustains it and destroys it. God allows us the opportunity to move away from our desires and reach a level of tranquility. Does this happen overnight? No, it will probably a lifetime and for some it would continue beyond. The soul is considered immortal and the physical body is temporal. Your responsible for your own fate, i.e. every action will have a consequence. Here there is no fear you just have to accept the consequences of your action, hence be accountable for it.
Do you believe that the sins of man are redeemed through belief in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ?
