Jesus Christ is my Lord and Saviour. The bible teaches clearly that Jesus Christ is the Son of God sent into to this world as a sin offering to redeem us from the power of sin. The journey to Heaven begins by us simply accepting the what the bible says about Jesus Christ and believing. We do not go to Heaven because of any good we may do on this planet. God has simply granted believers grace or unmerited favour. Anyone who says good work gets us into heaven has not grasped the nature of God and His plan to deal with sin in this world. I am a believer in Jesus Christ.

Buddhists probably beleive that jesus was a great prophet who walked the earth once upon a time and taught a lot of wonderful , good things. I don't know if they think about the crucification, rise again, son of god part of it.

To those who want to believe in it it has been unfolding for thousands of years.\n\nOther people chose not to pay much attention to these kinds of things and just try to do the best that they can to make the world as nice a place as they can for those that they meet.\n\nOne group sees themselves as superior and about to get their heavenly reward for this superiority.\n\nThe other follows the teachings of Jesus and sees everyone as a brother deserving of love.\n\nYou need to decide which idea makes the most sense to you and live it.\n\nLove and blessings Don

I agree with you. We all have the right to choose what or who we want to believe in and people have to respect that! \nI am a Christian and I believe that Jesus is the only way to God but that does not give me the right to force my belief on others.\nThe way I see it, my life as a Christian should express God's love in such a way, that people are drawn to Him even without me preaching or shoving the Bible down their throats!\nI want God's goodness and mercy to shine through me in such a way, that it will create a desire in people to get to know Him!

Cause everyone has the right to believe whatever they want to believe and call themselves whatever they want to call themselves.\n\nBesides, Christians, that is just a name given to those who believe Jesus is the Christ, and follow his teaching.  I don't think anyone could actually call themselves a Christian seriously if they do not believe, they are just kidding themselves.

Before Jesus came, people were bound by the law and the keeping of the law. In other words, if you believed in God, you kept the law, did your sacrifices to God, did what God said, etc., you went to Heaven. But the lawmakers of the time were so mean, they made it where no one could keep the law. They asked ridlculous things of the people.So Jesus came, to make obeying attainable. Once Jesus came, he was crucified for the sins of the world. On the 3rd day he rose, then ascended into Heaven, where he sits at the right hand of the Father, God. Now, all you have to do is believe that Jesus died, rose again, confess your sins to him and ask for forgiveness, and you will go to Heaven. So, the people before Jesus came that did what they were asked of God to do are in Heaven.

Because they have not accepted Jesus as their saviour.  It has nothing to do God not loving them, God loves everyone and desires everyone to be in His Glory.

I know what you're saying and to try to expain it to a non-believer is like trying to explain blue to a blind man. Without faith is it impossible to please God because first you must believe that he is. The same goes for Jesus you must believe that he is who he says that he is. And yes He did say that he was the son of God and He said it to a man that was blind until he healed him, John 9:35-41 Let everyone read it for them selves. And by receiving worship from the blind man He was also showing that He was God because only God is worhty of worship. Genesis 1:26 Who is our ?  God said, Let us make man in our image.

I am sorry, but those words you just said were descriptions of Jesus.  I am no Jesus.  The Bible says that a Chrstian is a follower and believer of Jesus Christ who STRIVES to be like the almighty.  The Bible makes it clear that you will fail.  No one is perfect.  I am a Christian because I try to have the best relationship with God that I can, I have and will see people delivered and set free from sin, I try to worship God as much as I can, and I strive to be part of my local church.  The one think that makes you and I human, not God, is the fact that we will never always succeed.  God knew this, so he sent us a way to not have to pay for our sins, he sent his son jesus to lift the burden off our backs and to sacrifice himself for every person on earth.  All you need to do is believe and ask for forgiveness.  That is a REAL Christian.

Yes, I believe in the Lord. He is also my Lord and Savior. I am glad to see that there are still some people that aren't afraid to admit that in the end they will be going to Heaven. I'll see you there.

The bible says "There a way that seems right to a man but in the end is death." Most people believe with as much sincerity as you may about God and the Holy Bible as they would about Allah or Buddha. I belief in Jesus Christ as God in the flesh, some say he was an angle, others would say he was just a man, and the ignorant would say he never existed.

they dont want to accept the fact that Jesus was God and dont want to convert or go to mass or do something for God.\nthey just want to be ignorant and live life according to their will. they dont want to acknowledge Jesus as God or else they will have to give up time and worship Him.

I think you make a good point. Many christians talk like being christian is all about being self-rightous and the right beliefs so you can get to heaven. I would invite them to review Matthew 25:31-46. I don't believe in a literal heaven and hell myself--I think those are metaphors--but I believe this passage has an important message about what Jesus really wanted his followers to care about.\n\nMatthew 25:31-46\n\n"When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, he will sit on his throne in heavenly glory. All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate the people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. He will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left.\n\n"Then the King will say to those on his right, 'Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.'\n\n"Then the RIGHTEOUS will answer him, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?'\n\n"The King will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.'\n\n"Then he will say to those on his left, 'Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. 42For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me.'\n\n"They also will answer, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?'\n\n"He will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.'\n\n"Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life."

Jesus was only a human being he is a holy creatures he is a God's messenger .\n\nThis belief is a big mistake for christians.
