I for one, dont understand what I need to be saved from.
Why am I under threat in the first place?
Doesn’t even have the same Bible as Christianity
But by that argument, belief in the church heirarchy is irrelevant...you're good as long as you also believe in Jesus. @thebrodys
there are 80 different books all claiming to be christian.
You can also be a serial killer, as long as youvbelieve in christ.
Heaven must be full of assholes.
Christianity doesn’t have church hierarchy. A Christian and there’s only two Christ no other person place or thing
Not a place I would want to be. Full of people resulting from undeserved salvation.
Used car salesmen everywhere.
A Christian answers to Christ alone*
So any religion is Christianity, as long as it includes belief in Christ, by your own proclamation. I'm not putting words in your mouth. @thebrodys
The *only* necessary component.
That’s not accurate. To be Christian is to follow Christ’s teachings. You can lose your salvation if you fall away from his teachings
@Doc No, you need God to sacrifice himself unto himself to appease himself for two particular ancestors of ours' transgressions.
The basis of the Christian faith is the New Testament that was ratified by Pope Innocent I in the year 405. Withouth Catholicism, there is no Christian Bible.
@thebrodys Oh. That's a little more elaborate than your original assertion. Apologies.
:joypeg:
@thebrodys now you are changing the version. It started out as "believe Christ as your Savior". When prodded in, you changed that to "follow Christ’s teachings". I have seen this exact discussion before.
Yes, what doc said.
What does this have to do with elections
salty ^^
Blind faith in a messiah. 100% apt. @leftingfighter33
@thebrodys and if you believe in christ as your savior, yet continue to be a sinner, what then?
if you fail to follow his teachings, yet believe in him as savior?
Jesus is in the Quran.. are muslims Christians in a way .
no, they think he is a prophet. Not a savior.
Only allah saves in islam.
As a Christian, you still do sin. Sin is a constant battle. When I fall short of Christ’s teachings, I pray and ask him to help me follow his teachings and to help me turn away from my sins. It does not mean we continue to openly sin
@thebrodys, you just advanced to level 4!
@thebrodys you dont continue to openly sin, but you continue to sin. Then it is clandesite sin?
Explains a lot.
@Doc So Jesus as savior, not in any other sense. This is snowballing.
Ur born a sinner. No need sin anymore
@thebrodys Does this mean that a pedophile that believes in christ, continues to sin (like everyone else), yet prays for guidance on a regular basis, gets saved?
No they go to hell
why?
faith is the opposite to reason ^^
Openly sin would be to acknowledge you’re sinning and to keep doing that. Everyone will fall short. We aren’t perfect, but we get to always fight against sin.
