My belief and faith in GOD. It's believing all of the bible not some or half. That's what makes me a Christian. Having a personal relationship with him. Being able to cry out to him in times of a storm, or just praying to him on a daily bases. Just knowing that GOD'S got my back makes me fell optimistic about life. My head isn't always in the sky i have some rainy days but knowing that i am not going through the storm alone makes it alright.

Christianity from teachings of Jesus Christ: based on or relating to a belief in Jesus Christ as the Son of God and the Messiah, and acceptance of his teachings, contained in the Gospels

´´Christ in you is the hope of glory´´. Christ indwelling my spirit is what makes me a christian. You cannot justify yourself and neither can you change yourself on your own strenght. God gives the Holy Spirit to them that ask. If you ask then you will receive. Salvation is for the asking. God bless and keep you always!!!

Accepting Jesus as my savior, repenting of my sins, acknowledging that Jesus died on the cross for my sins, and invite Jesus in to my heart and life, and change my old sinful ways and lifestyle.
John 3:16-18
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
only Gen 22:2
17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

♥Believing that Jesus Christ died for my sins.
♥Believing that He is my Lord and Savior.
♥That makes me a Christian, or a follower of Jesus Christ. But best of all, Saved.
Through grace alone I am saved.
"If you confess with you mouth, Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Jesus from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved". (Rom 10:9-10)

Baptism....an event that takes place where the object of the ritual has no say in the matter. Nevertheless, Rome is more interested in numbers than they are in true believers of the faith.

I agree with[ rxqueen ],
Not by works alone, no.... Not by the teachings of the Bible alone, no...
"For it is by grace that you have been saved, through faith- and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God- not by works so that no one can boast."-Ephesians 2:8-9, the Bible
But by the acceptance of Christ, by belieing that He died and rose again for all mens sins, by asking forgiveness of my sins, and by asking Jesus to be your Lord and Savior....
"That if you confess with your mouth, Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved."- Romans 10:9, the Bible
"He who conceals his sins does not prosper, but he who confesses and renounces them finds mercy."- Proverbs 28:13
It is by God's grace, and my choosing to accept His Grace( Son) that I am saved... not by works or rituals.
