its in the job description.... sorry you dont like it...\n\ni find its better to lead by example.. i know a lot of christians who can rattle off bible verses all day long... then you catch them doing all sorts of bad things when nobody is looking... \n\nthere is a difference between knowing the bible and living it....\n\ncheck into buddhism.. there is no fire and brimstone.. lol.. thats cute.. kudos to the person who wrote that.. its sort of like hiding your head in the sand.. pick the religion that doesnt hold you accountable for your actions.. very nice...\n\n\n\nnow to the biologist.. you dont try to force your beliefs down other people's throats?.. hats off to you.. unfortuanately .. my biology professors in college told me how stupid it is to believe in god.. and you had better not disagree with them.... really nice people...

born again christians believe in rapture.that they will be taken up during the great tribulation. Rapture is not a bible teachings.

Not any more so than anything else in this life. My point is that you have good and bad people in everything. Some interpret the scriptures to fit their needs and have adjusted it to there satisfaction. On the other hand you have people who truly believe their religion and try their hardest to live it and practice it, not just preach it. I think that is when you have the biggest problems is when people preach their religion instead of just living it.\nChristians need to realize that they would reach more people by their examples and in the way they live their lives then anything they say. There needs to be more practicing what they're preaching than anything, and it should start within themselves.

Hello,\n\nEvery thing takes time. you have to accept Jesus Christ as your Saviour and that he came down from above to pay for our sins.\n\nBeing born again is similar to accepting and repenting but, its like if you steal you can't go around staeling again. When you have the spiriti within yo , bad things would not even come to your mind\n\nTake care and God bless

Christ died to cover all sin past, present and future. That doesn't give you a license to sin though. If you love God and have truly been "born again" then you will find all sin as offensive once you see it as sin. Once a person who is "born again" realizes that they have sinned they have a conviction burning inside of themselves to ask for forgiveness, and to permanently separate themselves from the sin forever. I would say that all of us struggle with sin but some of us have chosen not to fight it and instead just simply give in to it. I think that is the difference also in someone who loves God (the one that struggles and hates the sin) and someone who just wants to get to heaven (the one that seeks forgiveness knowing that they will in the future seek out to do the same sin again and again). I don't want to go to heaven just for the sake of going to heaven. I want to go to heaven to be with the One that my heart desires. I want to know God as I am known and see His face. The only way that I can see His face is to hate sin in the way that He hates sin.

God wants you to read and learn the Bible, then go teach it to others.

I follow the Bible.  I try my hardest to be what Christ would consider a Christian, but I will eternally fall short as long as I try to be Christian.  I have to rely on my faith to save by the grace of God that is granted to me through the belief that Christ is the sacrificial lamb that died upon the cross to rise on the third day and claim victory over death for not only my sins, but the sins of humanity.  I pray that Christ counts that as Christian enough to be granted eternal salvation.

I don't feel that you have to.  But i think some people need some type of structure and assurance that they aren't alone in their journey.  I think it is definitely up to you as a person as to whether or not you need to belong to a church.  But going to church does not make you a christian.  That happens by asking Jesus Christ to be your saviour.  Just my opinion!

A born-again Christian is someone who has committed his life to God in more than just a nominal fashion: he/she has believes that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, has asked and trusted in Him for forgiveness of his sins (with the blood He shed as absolution/substitution for that deserved as payment for our sins), and now lives a life as a new person. Only Christ lives in the new, 'born-again' person-- not the old person, now 'dead' to sin and a sinful life.\nI have heard another good definition of this term, put succinctly: Rather than just a 'religion,' a born-again person has a RELATIONSHIP with Jesus.\n\n'Baptist' is the name of a denomination of the Christian church that emphasizes baptism and evangelism. They believe in the above Biblical requirements for salvation or being born again, but the term 'Baptist' refers to a denomination, not a belief principle, or even a religion.\n\nThe Bible, which Christians have practical and historical reasons to believe is the inspired word of God, teaches us that God is a Spirit, and must be worshipped in spirit and in truth. The Son part of God received an identifiable, but 'glorified' and perfected body after His ascension; how spirit-like it is remains to be seen.\n\nOne note of interest to me: One of the Scriptural names of God is El Shaddai, which means the Many-breasted One. This describes His all-sufficient attributes, but also suggests (as do some descriptions of the Holy Spirit) maternal, nurturing qualities.

That is wrong of them.  My parents do not "approve" of what I do (I actually sell pure romance items aka sex toys among other things) but they still support me no matter what.  Throwing the bible at you does not get the bills paid and will not force your way into heaven.  I am a born again christian myself but I still feel that there is a time to pray and religion will help you and there is a time when you just need to do what you feel is best for your survival.  \n\nHonestly, it is not very "christian like" of them to throw you out of their lives and threaten you with promises of spending eternity in hell.  Maybe they should re-read that bible of theirs.

surely it is fear that they themselves are not on the right path and will go to hell;by condeming others for wrongdoing they reinforce the idea that they are right\nthe christian message is basically a message of love and an obsession with rules is condemned by the church as legalism

for the same reason they feel strongly about ANY of their beliefs, people usually want to share what they feel strongly about because their trying to make the world a better place. \nask yourself if thats why you feel so passionatley about this?\n\nalso, when people truly do not understand something from your perspective, have not been able to see it from your perspective, or share your hearts passion, they will tell you you are wrong.\n There are Christians that do believe that scripture has been interpreted unfairly for those who truly and deeply love someone of the same gender, focusing only on the act of gay sex, and not the love. After all if God is love, how can my love for another woman be wrong? And WHY wont Jesus come back and say, Not what i meant people!\nIf you believe in Jesus or are a Christian, just pray about it, to him personally, you arent going to change the world, but you may find a myriad of answers in your heart this way.\nThere is something ide like you to read however with an open mind, see if it makes any sense at all, you may learn a bit more about yourself, or why others believe what they believe.\n\nAttatched is the link, just click on the blue below,

there is a difference between Christians and born again Christians, maybe it has something to do with being born again. LOL

It is confusing. That is why I read my Bible everyday. I believe it is the Word of God. That is all He has given me to go on. I do feel sorry for people who do not realize this. They are easily swayed. It also keeps me on track by belonging to a church. Jesus loves the church, He is coming back for the church.

yah....It pisses me off because alot of "christistians" are full of sh*t. They talk about god and preach this and that, then they live and act the complete opposite. It makes it feel like any kind of christianity is really bull sh*t, like everything else in this world. Maybe it is.

Cause the Christians love to Preach one thing and do the opposite.
