Do you really believe what you say you believe?

Are you a Christian? Do you really believe the Bible? All of it? Or do you have areas that you find you compromise? Do you believe what you say you believe, enough to walk it out in your every day life... Or is your faith for Sunday morning only?

Answering : No, I'm not a christian. No, I don't believe in the bible as word of a god, in my opinio it is just a mythology that people take too serious. See last answer. See last answer. Yes, until I find evidence to change my opinions, my positions on this subject will remain the same, but I don't have "faith" as I lack it. My positions are for all the days of the week, except mondays, between 4:00 am and 4:03am, this time I am a pastafarian.

Well it's nice to know you believe what you believe and are honest about it... Bummer about that faith thing, it really is a gift of God, looks like He hasn't bestowed it upon you at this time. I suppose evidence wouldn't even help you at all, as you'd need faith to see it.. Right now your faith is in what you believe.... In what you understand of evidence. You see the world the way YOU see it... hmmm, thanks for responding to my post have a great DAY... I hope God knocks on your door.. You are so bold, it would be EXCITING to see Jesus in YOU

I was born without faith. Evidence that needs faith to it is bad evidence. If it is so, why christianity and not Islamism, or buddhism, or hinduism, or other religion. Evidence that don't need faith and that cannot be explained unless as an act of God would be enough. Of course it would raise another question : Which God, but once His existence was confirmed, it would be an easier question. Now, a question for you. Do you have any idea about how many Gods mythologies exist or existed in this world? By Gods myths I mean, cultures that worshipped one or more of these gods.

I haven't any clue... I know the God who created everything. The number of other gods would be ridiculous to count, we can make anything into a god. It's called idolatry.. one can make idols even within ones own heart. I am sorry you seemed to misunderstand what I had said. I don't think that Christianity hasn't any evidence. It has much evidence, For if something is TRUE you can prove it. what I meant was that your heart is in a place, from what of it you have revealed, that I don't even know if it would help if I were to share that evidence with you. I don't believe you'd see it rightly. You seem completely closed off. thanks for responding. I will be praying for you. May the Lord God who created the heavens and the earth, the sea and all that is in them too, draw you to Himself, so that you might know His Son and be saved, redeemed and transformed by His Almighty power. :)

I believe in god. CAll him Allah, Yaweh, Deus, theyre all the same to me. I believe that he set the chain of evolution and creation, that the "6 days" wrongly translated in the bible is actually 6 periods of time, or six ages. I believe that he sent down countless prophets, Buddha, Jesus, Muhammed, Abraham, Jonah, Solomon, and so on. I believe that every religion as it came was pure and beautiful, but all were corrupted by men, bey it Islam, Buddhism or Christianity. After 11 years changing religions, studying and travelling, I also believe that every holy book still holds the key to personal enlightenment, and that everyone can find his path to god should he look for it hard enough.

well you must exclude the Holy Bible then... If they all hold the answers why the Cross for Christ? If there are many ways, why the Cross for Christ? Jesus said "I am the way.." "No one can come to the Father except through me." Guess you think everyone else is right, and Christ Jesus is a liar.... Not all religions can be right... But all can be wrong... Wide is the path that leads to destruction, but small is the gate, narrow is the way that leads to eternal life. May God reveal His Truth to you.... Jesus said "I am the way, the Truth..." what is truth Fidelity to the original... In Christ alone is life eternal... "I am the way, the Truth, the Life. No one can come to the Father except through Me."
