Jango-I wasn't asking anyone to judge if someone else is Christian. I want to know why you think you are a Christian or not. There are some who would respond by saying they belong to a certain church or have been baptized,or follow certain rules and they think that makes them Christian. Others...

Thankyou  all for your thoughtful answers.I'm delighted to see there are Christians joining in the discussions. I am a Christian also. I've been redeemed by the blood of Christ. He took my sin on the cross and suffered the penalty for me.He rose from the grave and is ever interceding for me. He...

I'm curious. I have visited this site just to read the dialog and have posted a response a few times. It appears to me that the ones doing most of the talking are not Christians and I wonder why you are always here. Also, for those of you that call yourselves Christians, I would like to know...

I give you credit for taking the time and trying! I think all of these so called discrepancies can be answered but to tell you the truth, I don't think the people who post such a long disjointed list are really looking for the truth-just a debate. I also think they could be answered with more...

When we speak of the inerrancy of the Bible, we are referring to the Bible in it's original form. There is no question that down through the ages scribes added verses. Also many modern translations are more interpretive than literal translation. Some cults like Jehovah's Witnesses have taken...

Sorry, I know you all want this discussion to end, but I thought you might want to consider Job. I don't have my Bible at the dek with me so I can't quote chapter and verse, but when Job is despairing of his troubles he cries out that 'it would be better if I had been stillborn then I would be...

Timor I did read your link and while only God (who doesn't exist in your mind) truly knows, I too doubt that you were ever a Christian. Please let me explain. You read and indeed even studied the Bible, you had no reason to doubt what you read,were taught by your grandparents,and heard preached...

I don't think anyone else picked up on this.I don't know about the seventh day adventists, but Mormons and Jehovah's witnesses are not Christians. A Christian believes that Jesus the Christ was God incarnate.A Christian is one who believes in and follows the teachings of Jesus. A Christian is...

Do you really think Pilate was concerned about "the people"? He was afraid of a riot because it would be on his watch,his problem. He made his final decision to let Jesus be crucified when the Jewish leaders said "we have no king but Ceasar". They were reminding him that if he didn't have Jesus...

Pilate was a coward. He said he could find no fault with Jesus and yet he didn't set him free because he was afraid of the crowd and their leaders.  If he thought him guilty he should have taken responsibility for his actions and not tried to clear himself by washing his hands symbolically.If he...

I don't think Eon is saying Christians are evil and self-serving-he's saying God is. Eon, you don't understand the concept of God's grace. He is merciful, slow to anger and quick to forgive. If you study the Bible you will see how patient God is. Even now He is waiting and willing for you to...

May I jump in here? Eternal punishnment is the consequence of rejecting Christ's  propitiation for one's sin not a punishment for any single act of sin. The person who will not admit their need for a savior is doomed to eternal separation from God. In the end, "every knee will bow and every...
