How many of you believe that Jesus died for your sins?

Question

What is so bad about a belief in God's Son? Why are people fightting him?
The bible seems very logical on the issue of Jesus.

Do not let fallen Chrisitans shape your belief about Jesus.

Answer 1

Thank you for asking this question- I thoroughly agree with you.

Answer 2

Fallen Christians (or any Christians for that matter) do not shape my belief about Jesus. And the only thing "bad" about a belief in God's son is that it doesn't make any sense to me. I am not fighting him, in fact, I have no business with him. I hope that clears things up. Blessed be.

Answer 3

I don't believe in God, let alone his son dying for my sins. It is much easier going through life and concentrating on how I can best live with my fellow human beings than focusing on my place of residence in the after life.

For what it is worth I am a principal of a high school with a very diverse student body and I would fill that school in a heart beat with muslims over christians. Muslim students are kind, courteous and unfailing tolerant while the Christians are rude and intolerant.

Answer 4

I don't, and religion is a personal choice it isn't about fighting Jesus or Christianity and when you read up on past ancient religions you will see that the new testament is but a hodgepodge of other religions. All religions are just ways different cultures with different values grasp the creative force of the universe. So it is really just a matter of what path to god is right for each individual.

Answer 5

I am a believer. But understand that it is only by the Grace of God.
Without grace a person cannot see the truth. Pray for grace.

Also, be a good witness in your life. Arguing about God and His Word doesn't bring people to Him.

Remember Therese of Avila said"Preach the Gospel at all times, when necessary use words". You probably came to Christ because of His love.

Answer 6

Jesus was just a man. Why do Christians find that so hard to believe? He didn't die for anyone's sins. He died because he was killed.

If there were such a thing as sin, this would be it: to allow yourself to become what you are because of the experience of others. How can the death of one man 2000 years ago change that?

Answer 7

The attack from non-christians is not a personal attack on Jesus. Most non-christians would acknowledge Jesus as a great spiritual teacher. The problem that non-christians have is with the doctrine that acceptance of Jesus as sacrifice for one's sins is the only way to heaven.

Answer 8

Jesus died because he was a terribly bad criminal. Luckily the Roman government got rid of him when they did. Unfortunately, some people about 100 years later wrote some novels and short stories about a guy with the same name, and lots of people took these fairy tales seriously:(

Answer 9

Salvation is based on what the Lord Jesus Christ did for you on the cross. He died for your sins He was buried and took your sins away and He rose again the third day for your justification. Ephesians 2: 8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Ephesians 2: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast. I trust in what He did for me and not what I can do for him.

Answer 10

I'd love to beleive it once I have seen proof that all the stuff the bible says happened. Im not trying to be akward but I cant dedicate my life to somethign Im not entirely sure about. I am not a total atheist by the way. I am unsure.

Answer 11

God is infallible. Humans are imperfect. How can imperfection come from perfection? That's like saying, "I have a flawless diamond with a small imperfection." My point is, by definition, nothing can be perfect and imperfect at the same time because imperfection prevents anything from being perfect.
