Here's the deal...Christians believe in God, the son, and the holy spirit.  If they believe all their lives in something that's not true, no harm done.  But if others choose not to believe, and the whole time the Bible was true, then I feel sorry for them.  We SHOULD use the Bible and Christianity as a crutch...that's what God gave it to us for; to use when we are tired, beat, fed up and ready to give up.  When we are at our weakest, that's when he knows we'll call out to him and allow him to be a part of our lives.  If there is no God and the Bible isn't true, then what was it all for, anyway?  If you can answer that, you've done more in your life than everyone else has done since the beginning.

Hello, my friend. This book--"Mere Christianity"--and especially this bit about Christ's being either a lunatic or else the Son of God, was instrumental in my opening up to Jesus, simply on account of the fact that I had, for years, "respected" Jesus of Nazareth as a great teacher, ever ignoring the (what I then thought to be) creepier things he was quoted as saying in the Gospels (such as "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Light")...and Lewis, with this very simple and basic observation, blew my cozy little respect for Jesus of Nazareth out of the water.\n\nWhich did something to a door. Meaning, I then had to face the very choice that Lewis proposed in this book. In other words, I was either going to have to open the door all the way (and believe Christ was who he said he is) or else close it (and believe Jesus of Nazareth to be deranged and blasphemous).\n\nUltimately, I would say that I chose to believe that Christ is God's Son, but truly God gave me the knowledge that Christ is his Son (John 6:44)...and perhaps he gave me the gift of faith for the sole reason that I was seeking it.

Very well said.  I am already a Christian, but I just had to see what the Atheists would say (and disprove them).  Keep up the good work.

Wow a Christian using scripture in their thoughts on dogma- novel idea that I hope continues. I totally agree- Ephesians 2 8For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— 9not by works, so that no one can boast. Kinda hard to argue with that scripture too huh? But we must see-as James points out- that good works are a result of our faith. Not that  we need to do them to get into Heaven-but if we follow Christ- and He was a servant to all- then we will do the same. Great point!

Pray about it. Think about it. pray about it. take care of yourself and your spirit because if you chose to be a messenger of God. You must be prepared for the possible suffering that comes with it. It isn't just telling people about the Gospel..it is about leading by example and living Christ-like. Read again Philippians on how Paul who was imprisoned instructs us how to live and endure like Christians. May God Bless you on your endeavors. Keep me up to date.

Usually I prefer not to make generalities, but this question sort of requires one.  I prefer to consider *people* on a case by case basis.\n\nI think Christianity, in and of itself, is a nice way of living a life, no better nor worse than most other paths.\n\nI admit I wish that more Christians were actually "Christ-like" in that they could be more peaceful and less judgmental.\n\nAnd I have problems with bigotry against homosexuals being mandated by a faith.\n\nI also wish some Christians could admit that they believe what they do based on *faith* and not insist it is *fact*.  \n\nHowever, by and large, it's okay with me.  Not that my approval matters!  : )\n\nThanks for asking -- think that's the first time I ever saw it asked.

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)

rapture is a big hope for every christian, but there are people who think it won't be there. I had issues with people who thought otherwise. But when I come to think more of it. They are ready to go through more suffering for the cause of christ and even die for his sakes and they only consider it a great thing to die for the Lord. And as I read yesterday from Spurgeon. He said that if we have a difference with someone or another sect we should both place our beliefs on the altar and see which one God approves. Unless each party is ready to submit their thoughts and knowledge to God and ready for some amount of humbling the truth can't be easily spread!

Yes I did know that ACC.\n\nBut I like everyone else hanging around cause if they didn't hang around, how would we do Matt 28:26-29\n\nI think others who are answering and reading questions directed at Christian's are searching for truth.

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.
