I am a true Christian saved be God's grace, and i don't think that any religion or "belief" out there can save anyone accept Christianity when you by ask for God's grace and mercy to be shed on them as a humble person. \n\nPeople havetried to tell me that there has to be another way like by being so "good" of going to church or sumthin to that effect, but Jesus made it speciffic by saying "I am The Way, The Truth, and The Life. No man can come to the Father except through me." and i totally believe that. \n\nI think that, if you aren's saved by God's grace and mercy, you are bound to Hell's gates no matter how "Good" you live your life, everyone still sins(Romans 3:23 For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God), but we can do something about it... cuz Christ paid the penalty(Romans 5:8,9) and anyone can be saved(Romans 10:13)by faith we are savede(Ephesians 2:8,9).\n\nI totally believe there is no other way to heaven, but in other "religion's" so called "holy books" they don't contain all facts, just enough to make some people think "wow!!! i didn't know that" and then lead them astray from that road of rightousness to a road of destruction. i don't know if there really is a verse in the koran that says Allah is Love?AND that all muslims are garunteed heaven when they die,even if they don't become maurters, but i don't think it matters cuz if you truly are a Christian you will do to heaven no matter what the koran says.

You will know them by their fruit.\nonly experiencing God's salvation makes you a true Christian. of course, we can't see into man's heart, so we just have to take people at their word and the way they live their life. But remember, it's not our place to judge.

No.  Christians believe Christ came for all, therefore you would be welcome, as someone who was saved.  There would be hope that you would come to believe.

Jesus <Christ> came to save sinners not save the spiritually healthy.\n\nChristian is someone who believes that Jesus is God within the Trinity and they believe he came to Save.  We're all sinners.  The redeeming hope is that Jesus has paid the price to save us.  However, it's up to us to find that path to salvation.  \n\nYou need to go to Church more, read the Bible more, and meditate more.  Tiding is very important.  Most people hear "Tiding" and automatically reach to protect their wallet.  However, "Tiding" is so much more than that. You should be giving 10% of your TIME, TALENT, and WEALTH to God.  Most people only give the wealth, and neglect to give God his time and talent.  When you do this, you'll get closer to God and understand his grace and mercy that much more. Give your Tidings to God and you'll become more of that Christian you imagine yourself to be.\n\nPlease remember, being Christian does not automatically make you a Saint ... you have to practice Christianity often to become a Saint.  Thank God, that you have the sense to recognise Jesus Christ and his salvation.  God bless.

True. You have a lot more common sense than most "Christians."  I do acknowledge God and sure enough, there are a lot of preachers who teach that their sanctuary is a holy place.  Rubbish!\n\nI am the church.  God lives in me, not in some building.  The body of Christ is composed of people, not religious institutions or pointy-topped architechture.\n\nCongratulations on your insight.  If I relied upon the information that preachers provided, I'd probably be an atheist too.  For example:\n\nHow is a person saved?  Can you be un-saved?  What would cause you to lose your salvation?  If you were to lose your salvation, could you ever be saved again?  Do you have any choice concerning your salvation (i.e., did God choose to love and save some and choose to hate and damn others?) If you are saved, will you speak in tongues?  \n\nPreachers teach pro and con on every aspect of religion listed above.  This is just the basic concept of Christianity and they cannot figure out numero uno - salvation.\n\nThe worst place for anyone to be is in a "church."  If you have any hope of redemption, it resides within your own willingness to seek out, learn and discover truth, apart from all of the religious false teachers.\n\nAbraham's belief was counted unto him as righteousness.\n\nYours is too.\n\nJohnny

You can still be saved during the 7 years of trials and tribulations.  Also if you haven't been taught of Jesus I don't think its held against you.

these people were probably saved tremendously from their addictions or faults. they don't have room to compromise. our jobs as a Christian is to surround ourselves with other believers. It makes us stronger and harder to break. But there are other Christians who have the ability to communicate the GOod News about Jesus Christ in a way that doesn't shut nonbelievers out. Don't lose hope!

Getting Saved and living for Jesus
515600
Jesus either saves completely or He does not save at all!\n\nThough the Christian who has committed suicide has committed a grave sin, he is still forgiven. But, in order to understand why a Christian who commits suicide is forgiven, we first need to understand what salvation is and what it is based upon.\n     Salvation is the state of being saved from God's judgment upon the sinner. The only way to be saved is to trust Jesus for the forgiveness of one's sins (John 14:6, Acts 4:12). All who do not trust Jesus alone, by faith (Rom. 5:1; Rom. 6:23; Eph. 2:8-9) are not forgiven and go to hell when they die (Matt. 25:46; John 3:18). When Jesus forgives someone, He forgives all their sins and gives them eternal life and they shall never perish (John 10:28). He does not give them temporary eternal life -- otherwise, it would not be eternal. \n     Salvation is not based upon what you do. In other words, you don't have to obey any Law of God in order to become saved. This is because no one is saved by keeping the Law of God (Gal. 2:21; Rom. 3:24-28). But that does not mean that you can go and sin all you want. Rom. 6:1-3 expressly condemns such action. Instead, we are saved for the purpose of purity (1 Thess. 4:7). Our salvation is strictly by God's: "By grace through faith you have been saved…" (Eph. 2:8). Other than acting by faith in trusting and accepting what Jesus did on the cross, you don't do a thing (John 1:12-3) in order to become saved. Since you did not get your salvation by what you did, you can not lose it by what you do.\n     What about the unforgivable sin? Is that suicide? No. Suicide is not the unforgivable sin. Jesus spoke of the unforgivable sin in Matt. 12:22-32. The context is when the Pharisees accused Jesus of casting out demons by the power of the devil. Therefore, suicide is not the unforgivable sin.\n\nIs repentance necessary for salvation? \n\n     This is a good question and the answer is yes -- and no. Now, before you throw stones, hear me out. Repentance is a necessary result of the saving work of God, not the cause of salvation.  If repentance brought salvation, then salvation is by works; or rather, the ceasing of bad works.  That isn't how it works.  God grants repentance to the Christian (2 Tim. 2:25). The Christian then turns from his sin; that is, he stops sinning. He is able to repent because he is saved, not to get saved. \n     In 1 John 1:9 it says, "If we confess our sins He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness." Confession of sin and its natural result of repentance are necessary elements of the Christian's life. But, what about the sins that we do not know we commit? If we do not confess them and do not repent of them, are we still saved? Of course we are! Otherwise, we would be forced to confess and repent of every single sin we ever commit. In effect, we'd be back under the Law, living by a rule of absolute repentance of every detail lest you be damned. This is bondage, not freedom. Jesus said His yoke was light, not hard (Matt. 11:27-30.  \n     So, repentance is not the cause of salvation, but it is a result of salvation.  The believer repents from his sins upon trusting in Christ and thereafter, continues to repent of further sins that the Lord reveals to him.\n\nBack to the suicide issue.\n\n     Suicide is, in effect, self-murder. The unfortunate thing about it is that the one who commits it cannot repent of it. The damage is permanently done. We can see in the Bible that murderers have been redeemed (Moses, David, etc.), but they had opportunities to confess their sins and repent. With suicide, the person does not.  But that does not mean the person is lost.  Jesus bore all that person's sins, including suicide. If Jesus bore that person's sins on the cross 2000 years ago, and if suicide was not covered, then the Christian was never saved in the first place and the one sin

Some say once saved always saved. As long as your keep your faith in Christ this is true. But I think salvation is a process over time, that you kind of grow into it. In the same sense I think you can fall away from it also. \n\nBut God is judge and Christ is able.\nLet's let Him do His work.

I have heard people (nonbelievers) describe many Christians like that, but I have yet to meet a true Christian who actually said something like that about another Christian. I think that what some may be doing is judging you (or whoever) by their actions, and forming their opinion that you are not saved. God does tell us that the saved can be judged by their actions. \n\nPeople who are truly saved do not want to practice sin anymore. But, that does not mean that we do not sin. I was saved 13 years ago, and if anyone would have judged me by my actions, they would have probably said that I was not saved, but I was. That is why ONLY God can judge our hearts. \n\nI do much better now, but it took me a very long time to deal with some of the major sin in my life and to learn to let it go. \n\nYou are absolutely right. Sin is sin. So, don't let other Christians get you down. If they judge you, don't allow it to make you feel bad. Just remember that you belong to Jesus, and that they sin EVERYDAY too. Although I am doing better now, I still sin a lot. The difference now is that I am a little more mature, and I do ask forgiveness immediately after a sin. It helps me to try harder not to do it again. And, I am holding myself accountable for what I do. \n\nSome people who claim to be Christians are NOT. And those who are constantly judging other Christians may be doing it to cover up their own sin. But you must not judge them, just pray for them. \n\nIf you are saved, you can NOT go to hell. Your sins cannot keep you from God, once saved always saved! You won't go to hell for sinning, unless the sin you commit is rebuking the Holy Spirit. Some people get all excited about getting saved, but nothing happens afterward, and then they forget all about God--then they were not truly saved. But those who are saved will continue to grow in Christ, even if it takes 13 years to grow just an inch.

You are being judgemental and harsh about Christains when you say that.  You are judging all Christians because of a few, who you don't even know are real Christians, or who may not fully understand Christianity yet.\n\nNeed a nice Christian answer that's biblical?  Plenty of us can do that without being harsh, but sometimes the truth is harsh.  The Bible says on judement day that all those who are not saved will be cast into a lake of fire along with Satan.

Saved from what? Your question is flawed.

Yes, I am most definitely saved by grace through faith.  I am certainly sad for the non-Christians who have given the negative answers to salvation to this question.  They will be in for a HUGE shock at the end, won't they????Anyway, I will pray for them.
