then does that mean they weren't really Christians? Because people keep telling me you can't believe in god without reading and embracing the bible.
How about Jesus's Disiples and his followers - they were the first Christians, but they didn't have a bible yet - the first books of the bible weren't written for another 60 years. The bible itself wasn't compiled until 325 AD by the Council of Nicea, as ordered by Emperor Constantine, another one who considered himself quite the Christian and in fact made it the state religion -- I guess by the logic of needing a bible to be a christian, then they weren't actually christians.
What say you?
