Absolutely.\n\nBut in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect.  -1 Peter 3:15

There is no hidden truth behind Christian churches. Albert Einstein once said three people can keep a secret if two of them are dead. There are simply to many people involved for a secret to stay secret very long.

Your absolutely correct, we to make disciples, not just get someone saved;\n\nMatt 28 \n19Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in[a] the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."\nActs 1\n8But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth." \nThe Great Commission is the end of a Gospel and the beginning of faith in action for all Christians. This command from Jesus is significant because it's a personal instruction for Christians to have a profound faith in Jesus Christ as indicated in verse 18. "All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth." This is an incredibly powerful statement which demands faith in Jesus Christ, validating His power in the lives of Christians and their commitment to Him. This verse acts as a clear claim to Christ's omnipotence, and therefore His deity. If Christians do not believe this statement, complete faith does not exist. Jesus is very clear about His authority in the world -- it is complete and total from the beginning of time itself (John 1:1-3). \n\nIn verse 19, Jesus gives His believers specific directions to follow after they have affirmed their faith. "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit." Jesus calls all His followers to act and share the Good News of salvation throughout the world. People hear this calling and travel each year on missionary trips throughout the earth, spreading the word of Jesus Christ. Many Christians have made incredible sacrifices, traveling to remote regions of the world beyond the civilized cities into jungles and deserts. Mission fields can also be very close to home. It could be a neighbor who has not heard the Good News, or a poverty stricken area just down the road where people can't afford Bibles. In the 21st century, the Internet has become a mission field where people can reach out and share Christ's love. The places and people who need to hear the Gospel are everywhere! \n\nAnother important aspect of verse 19 is that Christ is specifically teaching the doctrine of the Trinity to His followers. The three Persons of the Godhead are each equally and fully God and here presented in the logical order of Father, Son and Holy Spirit - yet only One God from the beginning (see Romans 1:20). \n\nFinally, in verse 20, Jesus provides specific direction with affirmation to His followers, "teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age." Christians are instructed to teach others about Jesus Christ and the entirety of His truth. We can't profess Christ as Savior and Lord, while rejecting certain of His teachings. As we teach Christ's truths, verse 20 declares that we can be confident, in faith, that Jesus Christ will support us. This fact has proven trustworthy throughout the centuries as millions of believers have heard, accepted and shared the Good News of Jesus Christ. Yes, Christ has ascended back to heaven, but He is present by the power of the Holy Spirit in every believer!

Well I thought at first that was someone taking the mick, but you seem genuine and what you have written is true, even powerful but that's normally shared with christians not with those who will ridicule something (sacred) like that. A 'prophetic' word perhaps but is the place to share it? Will it be well received? Yes you have addressed it to christians but it just seems to be the wrong place to share it ...but then I could be wrong of course..

If there was any truth behind Christianity (or any other religion for that matter) then it would be reasonable to assume that we would all be able to discern it, so we would all have the same beliefs.  Since there are in fact hundreds or thousands of different beliefs, there's no reason to suppose there is any underlying truth in any of it, including 'Jesus'.  So, the answer is 'No'.

Yes it does sound like christians are shooting themselves in the foot. its quite amusing. I also think that on some subconciese level that the guilt fear and shame inside them darkens thier hearts until they are unaware they are doing anything wrong or believing anything wrong/.;

yes I definitely think you should bring your Bible to school. It's our job as Christians to share the Gospel to those we are around, so yes, you should share your beliefs. When you get criticized for it, just pray for God to give you strength. He will help you through it.

They do that because it is one of the doctrines in their faith... "to go and spread the word (good news)". Which they take to mean as "tell everyone about Christianity".

I agree fully.  It's the Spiritual principle behind self-examination and the Sacrament of Confession/Absolution.  I think it's more that agreeable....I find it absolutely necessary!

I agree in an obscure way. I believe that it is a sin to put our own needs first instead of doing what Jesus says to do and that is to love our neighbor as ourselves. If we all did that there would be no poverty, but Jesus knows everything; thus He knows that man will love ourselves most....which causes some to be rich and more to be poor.

Absolutely!\n\nWomen are full members of the community of the faithful. We are all to serve according to our gifts, talents and skills.\n\nWe are instructed that in the coming kingdom there will be no master, no servant, no male, no female, no husband and no wife. All are equal in the eyes of God. \n\nOur mission on earth is to help in spreading God's message of all inclusive love. How can we best serve if we deny half our voice?\n\nGod bless,\n+Michael

It is about false Teaching. They are using that to confuse and mislead people. The true Gospel is about Jesus christ.

Christians know the truth and we are commanded to tell the truth to others.\n\nIllustration: If you were among a people who were suffering from dehydration and famine, then you found an unlimited amount of food and water, wouldn't you tell others about it?

There probably is missing Gospel. What relevance? It would have the same message, no?

I think that verse reveals a lot of modern evanglicalism to be out of step with Scripture. We have a very friendly, easy gospel preached in America where salvation is all up to us. John 6 teaches its not up to us at all in fact we contribute nothing to our own salvation including the will to believe. We are so totally depraved in our sin that we cannot even worship God unless he makes us worshippers. Very humbling.

Only a Pharisee would make this  public\n\n\nThank you
