I've been doing a lot of thinking on my beliefs lately and I can't force myself not to believe that a God doesn't exist. I see myself as being a Christian in terms of what the dictionary says the meaning is which is - "A belief in God" but I don't follow the religion it's self. I don't attend church, I don't depend upon the Bible for all my answers to my problems and I don't talk about him 24/7 in everyday life. I do read my Bible and I do try to live the life he intended for me and I do have Faith in him. But my Question is on your own views.
Can you follow Christ, love God totally, try do best in life and live by his laws most of the time, still sin and follow Christ? And my other Question is can you follow Christ, try to live life the way he intended for you but not have the title of Christian and not be connected to a religion? Afterall, God didn't create the religion but for us to just love him and follow his word. What are your views on this? It seems whenever I decide I want to believe in God everyone always asks - "Oh your a Christian" and they assume that since I don't follow a religion that I am not close to God. Why? Tell me your thoughts on these matters =] |

everyone sins. no one is perfect. God, somehow, still loves and forgives us. i don't understand why he would love us so much, but he does.
my faith in God is sometimes all that keeps me going. when i'm down and out, i know i am not alone. i have seen and heard of too many miracles to think anything is accidental, or that any life could occur without a higher power. God is my rock. |
