It is very simple! Read the life of Jesus and the apostles and find a religion that follows the first-century pattern. When you find it, one will have found God's people today. Read Romans 12:2 which encourages us to prove it ourselves what is the will of God.

When we look at the first-century pattern we can easier see the true religion or the one that God approves. Since God's word promotes unity, then there cannot be two religions that He approves. In the time of Noah there was only one way that people could be saved. They had to get into the ark that Noah and his family were building. This boat had God's blessing and protection. No one else survived.
Go closer to each religion and eventually you have to make a decision. It has to be a personal decision. No one else can make it for you for your eternal salvation hangs in the making of the right decision. I wish you success!

I don't have to prove that my church is the true church, I have to feel it and everybody should feel the same about his church or religion. It is no use to try to prove it, because many of us will do it using violence, and that has nothing to do with religion or what God taught us. You are right that the Bible should be our guide in everyday life, but we are humans and have many temptations.

If someone uses violence to prove their religion is the right one then for sure it is the wrong one. Violence was not something that the early Christians in the first century used to spread their message. The instruction in Matthew chapter 10 were to go in peace and leave in peace. No forced conversions are approved in the early church when the apostles were alive. They were to attract others by showing love and doing good.
Romans 12:17-21 (New International Version) 17 Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everybody. 18 If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. 19 Do not take revenge, my friends, but leave room for God's wrath, for it is written: "It is mine to avenge; I will repay," says the Lord. 20 On the contrary:
"If your enemy is hungry, feed him;
if he is thirsty, give him something to drink.
In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head." 21 Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

This matter is subjective. If you study deeply the origin of each religion , you shall find there the common element, the divine experience of holy men. If God is the Father of all the people, how can He refrain from revealing Himself to His children.But man is mortal and limited. No one can discard the divine element present in all the religions.

well if you want it that badly, id say if you see your church following the Bible all the way and not making their own way or deviating from the God's word, and having Jesus as the center of everything in the church.
