I do not believe that it is possible to be a Christian and anything else at the same time.  However I do believe it's possible to take from every faith that which will help draw you closer to God and better follow Christ.\n\nBlessed Be

"Are you saying you can choose what you like from the bible and disregard what you don't like."\n\nThat is the basis of Christianity.

First allow me to say that I am a Christian Pastor.\nAlso that I agree that we, as Christians have a lot of work to do when it comes to living up to the expectations of our own religion.\nOne of the first things that I learned was sometimes the best thing to do is agree to disagree.\nMay God Bless.

No I don't, I am Christian and I consider it a moral guide with some truths and a good book, but it isn't the end all to end all. I consider myself Christian because I follow many of Christ teachings and lets face it I was raised to be so. Nature vs. nurture, what can I say? Oh and you don't have to follow the Bible to follow what Christ taught, even he was against being ruled by laws.  I love God, not the Bible, if I did I would be a follower of books not of Christ. Ever wonder why Jesus never wrote about himself? Think on that for awhile. Like the bible says we are all Gods. Follow your heart not a book.

No of course not. What kind of a question is that? It's 100% false and Jesus was perfect and did not sin at all. Martin Luther started the Protestant Reformation and wanted to put into practice what the Bible(God's Word) says. If Martin Luther were alive today, he would be apalled by what you said.

same as any other group of ppl. some are good, some arent so good. christianity started out with the best of intentions, but theres always going to be flaws with stuff like that.

I certainly do! I've only been involved with Yahoo Answers about a week, but I've already received some very positive responses to answers I've proposed. I'm very happy and excited to know that we have a forum here that allows Christianity to be expressed as much as other forms of religion. The Christians, by and large, seem to be very sincere and helpful-most other participants do too, for that matter.\nAs others have said, God can use this forum as a way to communicate His thoughts, and especially His love to people.\nMay we as Christians be not only sincere, but well-versed in our beliefs and God's Word.\n\n"So shall my word be (like the rain that makes things grow) that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it." Isaiah 55:10-11

I like you're question.  I'm a Christian, but I just wanted to tell you I like you're question.  It really may get some to think.  I'm sure God likes it too.  Really.  God Bless!!!

Hello, my friend. This book--"Mere Christianity"--and especially this bit about Christ's being either a lunatic or else the Son of God, was instrumental in my opening up to Jesus, simply on account of the fact that I had, for years, "respected" Jesus of Nazareth as a great teacher, ever ignoring the (what I then thought to be) creepier things he was quoted as saying in the Gospels (such as "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Light")...and Lewis, with this very simple and basic observation, blew my cozy little respect for Jesus of Nazareth out of the water.\n\nWhich did something to a door. Meaning, I then had to face the very choice that Lewis proposed in this book. In other words, I was either going to have to open the door all the way (and believe Christ was who he said he is) or else close it (and believe Jesus of Nazareth to be deranged and blasphemous).\n\nUltimately, I would say that I chose to believe that Christ is God's Son, but truly God gave me the knowledge that Christ is his Son (John 6:44)...and perhaps he gave me the gift of faith for the sole reason that I was seeking it.

Christianity is correct.

Without sitting down and looking at all the specifics, I think I'm already doing what he commanded.  The beatitudes and golden rule are fairly good descriptions of how I live my life.  \n\nI'm highly skeptical of the supernatural claims of Christianity, but I agree wholeheartedly that Jesus was a wise man with very good ideas.\n\nEDIT:\nJeff, the text of the KJV is styled in medieval verse (no I don't believe that the translators were divinely inspired).  The beatitudes in particular are poetic in form, and not subject to strict interpretation.  By saying that the poor are blessed, Jesus identified with their suffering and said that it would be recognized.  The beatitudes as a whole are an exhortation to live well and love one another, with specific examples.  They are an example of how the world could be if we lived in peace: a beautiful concept and one I attempt to live.  (Occasionally I succeed, though not often).\n\nAs far as dying in order to live (I assume that you're referring to John 12:24), I've already stated that I'm skeptical about the supernatural aspects of Christianity.  I'm sure that Jesus and I differ on many matters of religion and theology.  That doesn't change how I feel about his philosophical and social ideas.  He's not my savior, but he's a very good example to the world.  I don't worship him, but I'd definitely buy him a beer and listen to what he had to say.\n\nHonestly, I'd probably do the same for you, if we ever met.

Everything that is , has been or will be , is in his perfect will. We can not understand God's perfect will as long as our knwoledge is veiled. For God works even that which is evil for good to those that diligently seek him and abide by his precepts. If your search is to find flaw and imperfection you will arrive soon, if your search is for is glory, both you and I have a long way to get there and we will certainly not accomplish it until that which is perfect returns.
