What religion do I belong to?

I know it is a personal choice, but for some reason I don’t know if I should be baptized because I don’t think I could uphold gods laws. My parents are JW’s but I’m more of an agnostic. Jw’s are nice people what they believe in is true.(at least from what I’ve heard, read, and done) But I still feel empty and lost. So many questions but no answer. Yet again I haven’’t asked the questions. Even Islam sounds interesting. What religion do I belong to? Can you guys also describe your religion briefly? ( give a name ex. catholic,protestant, atheist)

you should try being Catholic… that way if you do sin you may be forgiven… but ya know… it is your choice… no one can TELL you what to believe in… you must find that out on your own

Answer #2

Why not study the religions which interest you and the one that really touches u,u choose to follow its path?

Answer #3

Too many people can’t decide to decide.

If you believe in Christ and hold to Christian values then be baptized. Some people struggle to reach the point where they can rely on their own testimony so they rely on others until they do. If you believe in Christ but you lack confidence, put your trust in Him and step forward. If you make a mistake, repent. All “Christian” religions believe in repentance. If you feel sorry for it you confess it to God and ask forgiveness from the one you wronged, then never do it again - change your life so you don’t do it again. It’s all about becoming a better person and reaching the goal.

I’m LDS and I think it’s important to believe in God and serve Him. I don’t believe “saying so makes it so”, you need actions behind the words or the words are just empty gestures. You do that by living what you believe, serving those around you, helping the needy and feeding the hungry. You go to church and you repent and vow to not do it again.

So get baptized. Read your scriptures. Pray to God and above all, listen for that still small voice down deep in your soul. That voice, the Holy Ghost, will guide you in the right direction, if you listen and trust (- have faith).
