Intrig, if indeed you are trying to grow in Christ everyday, then you are the Righteousness of God in Christ, and not a sinner anymore, even if you sin today, as long as you repent it is immediately forgiven, we live under grace not the law. That being said, is not a license to sin, but it is also true that we are not sinners, but righteous. So you may very well be Sir Righteous, but then only you and the Lord really know your heart...
Jesus is Lord Hey all, Just thought I would produce my first post by announcing that I am a servant of Christ Jesus, he is glorious!!
Well I was baptized Protestant.I did my confirmation classes when I was a teenager..However my faith isn't too strong at all. I don't pray,go to church,etc... I just do some honorary work in the church library in my village..but more because I like books ...
Yes,I am reconciled to God thru faith in Jesus Christ,and I actually try and practice being Christlike when I`m not around "church folk"
Yes i am a christian, and the definition of a christian is an imperfect person(called a sinner) who is saved from the judgement of God, Hell, by accepting the free gift of God, HIS Son Jesus, who atoned for our sin on the cross at Calvary so we are all imperfect if we are christians
Yes I am a Christian. I was baptised in the Anglican faith this year and have considered being ordained. But I didn't grow up in a church - both my parents are somewhere between atheists and agnostics - so my faith was a choice as an adult. I respect people greatly who have faith, or no faith at all, but my faith sustains and inspires me. I recently spent a week in Taize (an ecumenical religious community in France) with a group of young people, which was absolutely wonderful - we worshipped for about 2-3 hours per day, including moments of silence and intense concentration. It is so hard to find the space for that in everyday life. I also lead a very different lifestyle since my baptism, which I take very seriously - I don't engage in casual sex, or drinking too much. I know, boring eh?
Good for you. I wish you well in your journey! :-D I consider myself more of an agnostic than anything.
I once tried to look up the difference between atheist and agnostic but they were written in a way I wouldn't really understand.Could someone explain it to me?
Agnositc means, that u don´t say, there is no god or something like like Spirituality, it is more a it may be or it may not be.... You will find out when you am dead. U cannot prove the existence of god, but also u cannot pove that there is none! Atheist means, that U don´t belive in and higher beings or so. An Atheist has a non Spritual world, there is no god, and there is no Spritual stuff, and what so ever. An Athiest only belives, what is proven, and since it is pretty hard to show of with a God in ur hands, an atheist won´t belive there is a god! BUT it don´t mean, that an atheist has no moral! Humans rights are actualy grown on atheist or agnostic views, that is why they are universial! Christians cannot make rules wich apply to all mankind, because they say, that a non beliver is bad.
Because when u are christian u go to heaven all the others go to hell, that means, that christians don´t have universial rights for everyone. So u can be the nicest person in the world, as long as u are not christian, u will burn in hell. That makes no sence for me.
