If you live your life as a Christian, what have you got to lose?

There's absolutely NOTHING wrong with being a christian.....It's the ticket to heaven...Just truly believe in jesus. But we as humans have to believe in a higher power. To believe that there is a deity that never sleeps, is all knowing, loves you and cares for you no matter what, that watches over you and is the keeper of our loved ones when they die. I got saved Oct of 04, Iam not self-rightous but christians live a totally different type of life. They are quicker to lend a hand, or an ear or a shoulder to cry on. Just an example.....My father committed suicide last july. My family and I spent EVERYTHING we had saved on the funeral and the tombstone. My church  gathered a memorial fund in my fathers name to cushion the financal blow and had a HUGE catered dinner for us after the funeral. Would a regular person do this? Maybe....But the point is is that they loved us, were caring in our time of need and had God at heart when they did all this.They listened to us when we needed understanding, gave us some understanding on why things like that happen. They prayed for us...never underestimate the power of prayer...PRAYER DOES WORK. And praying for another human being is the most loving thing some one can do. I was working for my church as a secretary when my father died...I missed an entire week of work, when i showed up that Tuesday morning my minister handed me a full weeks pay and i didn't work one day the week before. Unselfish acts, as they say, doing as God has instucted me.... And when you have God in your thoughts and Jesus in your heart you can't go wrong...   Theres nothing wrong with being a christian, They are a loving, giving people.....were all family and its a family that iam proud to be a part of. (Sorry this was so long)

That's a good question .If you didn't have it in the first place you didn't loose it.\nMLM can you explain what "whatever you bind on earth shall be considered bound in Heaven and the sins of those you forgive they shall be forgiven"?

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.

Free will. \n\nWhen anything negative happens to you.. It's a actually a way to become a better Christian, Jew or Muslim.. It should drive you closer to God.. Praying for guidance, strength and patience..

Everyone sins. Just because you become a Christian doesn't mean you never sin again.

yes and yes\n\nyou cannot hold on to your sin and and Christ. You cannot serve God and mammon (other gods). which is anything that takes priority over God. All need to turn from sin that's repent = 180 degree turn.\n1Cor 6:9-11Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor *homosexuals, nor sodomites, 10 nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God. 11 And such were some of you. But you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God.\n\nMessenger

You choose to accep or reject the gospel.  You cast yourself into hell.  He has provided a way so you don't have to go there.

A lot of people have replied to this question by saying that you must accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior, welcoming Jesus into your heart and life, and admitting you are a sinner and asking for forgiveness.\n\nThese are good starts, but these are ONLY a start.  To be a Christian means to be Christ to others.  Read the Gospels and see what Jesus did.  He forgave people, he fed the people, he cured them of ailments that kept them from being part of society.  These are the things we must do if we are to be Christian.  Read the 25th Chapter of Matthew and you will see what you must do.\n\nBeing a Christian is more than just believing, it is DOING.

Be honest.  Say, "I don't know."\n\nIts an answer I wish Christianity wouldn't be afraid of.

Going to church won’t save you. Reading the Bible won’t save you. Giving money to church won’t save you. Knocking the doors and evangelize won’t save you. Doing good deeds won’t save you. The only real thing that save is faith in Jesus-Christ, accepting Him as your Savior and Lord and part of that process is repentance. Repentance means to recognize that you sin, being saddened by the fact that you messed up so much that you wanna make a u-turn. And part of that process, you grow hungry to get to know more about God and among the great ways of doing so is through the reading of the Scriptures and the sermon and hanging out with believers, to learn but also to be encouraged… where church comes in. Eventually, God works in your heart to lead you to be more Christ-like and there comes all the fruits of the Spirit (Gal. 5 :22). And then, you realize just what an amazing God you have and how amazing the gift of eternal life is and you simply would like the whole world to know about Him… Strive to get to know God, whichever way that you’re OK with right now. Seek His kingdom first (Matt 6 :33) and all the rest will be given to you (and it’s sooooooo true). And ask Him to reveal Himself to you. No matter where you are. God bless!

Find Jesus.\n\nBelieve me, you will find that bitterness leave you one bit at a time.

God is the most important person in my life. I also know that you can go to heaven if you get saved and the way that you get saved is if you believe that Jesus died on the cross from your sins, rose on the third day, and then you have to confess to God in prayer that you are a sinner and that you believe He died on the cross for your sins and ask for His forgiveness on your sins and it is THAT simple, salvation is a free gift, we can't earn it. I am a baptist who believes (let me rephrase that, I KNOW) that this stuff I said is true. My name is Matthew James Needham and don't be shy to contact me on this. my email address is im_proud2b_a_christian@yahoo.com

As a Christian, I would advise you to not find a faith that workds for you, but find the faith that contains the fullness of truth, and strive toward that truth.\n\nGod bless,\nShane
