Hey all you "TRUE" cristians Please answer?

I'm a Christian, and I totally agree with you. When Christians treat people rudely, they are not being like Christ. Christ said to love others as we love ourselves. I'm sorry that you have been treated poorly by Christians.

You will keep seeing Christian answers saying Jesus is our Savior, and all that you said because that is what we believe. Just as much as you and all other religions believe otherwise. We don't care that the majority of the world is not Christian. Most of us respect your opinion, but we have our own opinion. Sorry if my religion offends you.\nGod bless you. God loves, Jesus died for you.

My friend, I agree with you, yet I also see a more pressing matter at hand. What about those persecutors and all the non-believers? If they die, they will not rejoice with all of us in heaven with the Lord God. I will pray for both the believers and the non-believers. There isn't much I can do from my present state but pray and preach the Word, since i'm not in a position to do anything but that. Email me if you have questions or are a fellow believer in Christ at questinchrist@yahoo.com. God bless

Jesus Christ said Himself that if we LOVE Him, we WILL DO as He commands. If you don't want to go to church and be baptized, then you have to ask yourself, "do I really love Him?" \n He did not only command us to be baptized, but He got baptized Himself. So there: walk in His footsteps. How else can you live for Him than by obeying Him??

Once I was asked “Have you found Jesus?” I replied “Damn? You guys just keeping losing him” (and probably your faith as well). And while I appreciate your thought and intent the answer is “No Thanks”.  I am pleased that you have found a path but with all due respect, do not try to drag others along! (Usually kicking and screaming).  Make you a deal! I’ll attend a service with you if you attend one with me! Neither will probably convert but I’ve seen yours before. You attending mine may uplift you and at least give you a different perspective.

This is one of those standard retorts that drives a stake through the hearts of bleedin' heart christians and their rabid war-mongering associates even.\nIt's a stumper for some, an opportunity for trotting out the prepared church answer for others.\nI am not one of either of these, thank the Dog!

All TRUE Christians worship God.  You can't really call someone a Christian unless that person is REALLY a Christian.  Besides, it's between the person and God.  Only God knows who among us are TRUE Christians.

I must tell you that it saddens me to hear that your experiences with Christianity have left you disenchanted with the whole thing. As a "christian" I would like to take this opportunity to apologize to you for any thing that anyone who calls themselves a christian has done to hurt or anger you.\n  I would like to say that i agree with one of the other posts in the fact that not everyone who calls themselves christian truly knows Jesus Christ.  You see "Christianity" has become just another religion where we humans try to reach God on our own terms.  That's where all the "bible thumping" comes from.  Jesus is Gods attempt to reach us humans through His love, unfortunately most Christians never fully experience His love and therefore can never love themselves.  They think that by being super zealous for the laws that God has set for us, and "taking a stand" for what they believe that they will some how please god more.  The bible teaches that we can do nothing to please God, outside of having a relationship with His son Jesus Christ.\n\nI would be honored to share with you how you can truly experience Gods love if you want.\n\n\np.s.  I didn't get the stamp of approval from my church or minister but that's OK cause I AM one of the ministers!:)\n\ncrazy that one of us guys would read something that challenged Christianity huh?  Hope i am up to the challenge

Even though I admire your efforts, the way you have asked the question, will only make the christians feel insulted and become defensive. Only a very openminded one would read your post and seriously think about what you are saying. Good points, though.

If you'r a Christian and a true believer, then what is it thats confusing you. Don't you read the Bible? Where does it say anywhere in the Bible that anyone except Jesus ever came back from the dead to live a new life? No, I do not believe in past lives.

hi.. First of all, I would like to congratulate you for choosing the way of Christ.\n\nI'll try to answer your question to the best of my ability.\n\nI believe that when God speaks about All flesh\nin Joel 2:28 "And i shall come to pass afterwards that I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh; your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions."\nHe meant the believers or someone who is being prepared for the Lord's works.\n\nIf you check sub chapters before that verse, God talks about A call to repentance and the land refreshed.\nThe Lord obviously speaks about the people who repent and refreshed into the new creation in Christ (believers).\nThus, I conclude that All flesh, in Joel 2:28, means All believers\n\nThat's why it is important to always read at least a chapter or two before and after the verse.\nFor the bible works as a whole; we should avoid reading bible verses by chopping it individually. If we do that, there is a chance for us to take the verse out of the original context. \n\nAnd, yes there are still prophets appointed by God.\nand as it is true that there are true prophets, there are also false prophets/teachers.\n\nand your question is How we can tell the true from the false one, right?\n\nthere are 3 steps for us to know that a prophet is a false one or not:\n1. God says "My People perish from the lack of knowledge." It is very important for us to read the bible and pray everyday to build a sweet and intimate relationship with God. And also sharpen our knowledge about God's characters.\nWe know that Jesus has warned us about the false prophets/ messiahs in Matthew 24:24-28. So, when there are news about  messiahs that come to deliver us from sin, we knew that we have to be careful with those fake messiahs. We know in our heart that Jesus Christ is our only messiah that no one comes to the Father without going trough Him.\n\n2. From reading the bible everyday and become more and more alert and sensitive to God's voice, we knew that the true prophet sent by God will NEVER contradict the bible.\nSo, when a teacher/prophets come to you and said that he is the messiah or something like you should divorce your husband, we know immediately that this prophet is a false teachers and should be avoided.\nRemember! the bible is the ultimate guide that you should use to check whether a prophet is false or not.\n\nwhen they go against the bible, don't waste your time.\nPack your things and go.. Don't bother listening to them.\n\n3. What if the prophet looks and sounds fine for now...but in the future, he will finally shown his true self. how do you know  that he's not going to trap you in his web of lies. For we know that the devil is cunning and deceitful.\n\nWell, go and look in matthew 7: 15-20.\nIt is okay and even recommended to test those people.\nDon't accept them immediately just because they said they are prophets.\nDon't be rude to them, but keep your Spiritual alert system on all the time.\nTest the fruits and the labors. For the things that came from the Lord always bring forth peace and goodness.\n\nTake whatever good and biblical inside. but, disregard the weird teachings. Keep alert and pray all the time for the Holy Spirit to reveal the truth to you about those prophets.\n \n\nHopefully that helps,\nIn jesus name,\n\n\nAmen

Unfortunately all we know about you are the questions you are asking.\n\nI don't pretend to know who you are, or why you are asking these questions.  After 4 pages of your questions, it is obvious from your repeated theme of supposed Christian lies that you are fanatical in your beliefs.  Your questions are very abrasive, and when people react negatively to them you post more abrasive questions.\n\nMy faith will not be wavered because you just told me everything I have believed in, and witnessed in my life is a lie.\n\nWe believe in one God,\nthe Father, the Almighty,\nmaker of heaven and earth,\nof all that is, seen and unseen. \nWe believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ,\nthe only Son of God,\neternally begotten of the Father,\nGod from God, light from light,\ntrue God from true God,\nbegotten, not made,\nof one Being with the Father;\nthrough him all things were made.\nFor us and for our salvation\nhe came down from heaven,\nby the power of the Holy Spirit \nHe was born of the Virgin Mary and became man.\nFor our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate;\nhe suffered, died and was buried.\nOn the third day he rose again\nin accordance with the Scriptures;\nHe ascended into heaven\nand is seated at the right hand of the Father.\nHe will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead,\nand his kingdom will have no end. \n\nWe believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life,\nwho proceeds from the Father [and the Son],\nwho with the Father and the Son is worshiped and glorified,\nwho has spoken through the prophets.\nWe believe in one holy catholic and apostolic Church.\nWe acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins.\nWe look for the resurrection of the dead,\nand the life of the world to come. Amen.

True Christians are not. one of the very foundations of Christianity is that the material, physical world is but fleeting; a true Christians reward is to be found in heaven.\n  Hope that helps!

I was brought up Catholic from birth and was brainwashed into believing what I was taught as teachings from the Bible. I have always believed and honored my spirituality in God, but too many years of it was not based in His Word.  \n\nLuckily, I was led to the Bible & I have been trying to sort out the Truth from the lies. It's a hurtful issue that I am working hard to overcome and find acceptance with. I am very confused, and somewhat bitter as well, but, at the same time, am I VERY thankful for the wonderful people here who share their knowlegde with beginners like me and are helping me along.  That in itself defines truth Faith in God to me and the power of believing he always there for you if you seek him.   Thank You everyone.

Jehovah's Witnesses are the only true Christians. True Christianity as practiced in the first century and by Jehovah's Witnesses rejects all the paganisms mentioned in your question.\n\n1. True Christianity draws its teachings exclusively from the bible, rather than from philosophy. Doctrines such as Trinity, hellfire, and immortality are not found in the bible.\n(Mark 7:7) It is in vain that they keep worshiping me, because they teach as doctrines commands of men.\n\n2. True Christianity works to make known God's personal name. No group has done more to advocate that name than Jehovah's Witnesses .\n(John 17:6) I have made your name manifest to the men you gave me out of the world.\n\n3. True Christianity recognizes the active role of Christ as heavenly King NOW, not just as a storybook character in a manger or dying helplessly. Witnesses look to Jesus as their Head and King who is ruling in heaven already.\n(John 3:36) He that exercises faith in the Son has everlasting life; he that disobeys the Son will not see life\n\n4. True Christianity is not just formalism, but is a way of life for its adherents. Jehovah's Witnesses have a real reputation for honesty, integrity, and faith. Their worship shuns pageantry and sacerdotalisms.\n(Isaiah 1:15-17) Even though YOU make many prayers, I am not listening... Learn to do good; search for justice\n\n5. True Christianity is known by its members love for one another. Witnesses do not go to war, and do not take up arms against anyone much less members of their own religion.\n(John 13:35) By this all will know that YOU are my disciples, if YOU have love among yourselves.\n\n6. True Christianity is separate from the world. Unlike the clergy of Christendom, Jehovah's Witnesses remain neutral to human politics and nationalism, looking instead to God's Kingdom through Christ Jesus as the only solution for all mankind's problems.\n(John 15:19) Now because you are no part of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, on this account the world hates you\n\n7. True Christians follow Jesus' command to preach. No religion has more prominently emphasized preaching by all its adherents around the globe.\n(Matthew 24:14) And this good news of the kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations

You say that you "can't wait for all these christians to be gone." But ... What if we're still here and you're gone?\n==========================================\nTO: jacartamonkey\n\nNo, I know nothing about you. However, based on your statement that you "can't wait for all these christians to be gone." It sounds like that you think you and the Christians will not be in the same place. \n\nYour statement is based on the belief that Christians will be removed and others remain; mine is based on the fact that Christians remain and wicked are removed. NOT saying you are wicked, but just going by what you said.
