Saved? Saved from what? Saved from a lifetime of servitude and donating money to an incredibly wealthy corporation such as the catholic church? Saved from having to keep my sisters and wife bundled up outside and hide them from the world? Saved from living a life of servitude to a man created idea of hope or suffering some type of eternal punishment from a parent figure that does not exist? If that is your question, than I say whole heartedly, YES!!!!! I am saved!!!!

YES,now that my life and thoughts,and heart is free from the life of a christian. So many years I have wasted being a weak mindless religion follower. Being co worst into believing the Bible was the way. They hide from life behind the Bible hoping that their problems will be solved by this God, a God that only knows how to solve his problems with Murder and drowning those he doesn't like. I could go on and on. But yeas after 55 yrs. I am finally saved.

Absolutely! I have been saved by the Grace of God. He changed my life, and made me a new person. My desire is to serve Him. He put a new song in my heart. I want to tell others about Jesus, and how to be saved. I want everyone to go to Heaven with me.

Yes, I'm saved. The reason I know is because God said in His word, "If thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised from the dead, thou shalt be saved." (Romans 10:9) So, I say to any of you out here that are reading this, if you desire to be saved and you want to turn your life around and walk the straight and narrow, make a confession today. Ask God to come into your heart and change your mind. Believe that God is God and beside Him there is no other. I know that there are people on here who play around but God's nothing to play around with. Accept Him into your life and your life will never be the same.
Be blessed!

NO. want to know why?
Christianity makes a mockery of God. At the same time that Christians claim to worship God as an omnipotent, omnipresent, omnibenevolent being, they make him out to be incompetent bumbler. Or worse. Simple forgiveness is beyond his capacities. God must "sacrifice himself to himself to change a rule he made himself!"
This is not only an absurdity, it is an essential absurdity. It is present in almost almost all forms of Christianity, and one can scarcely remove it and remain a Christian in anything but name. By definition, all Christians worship Christ - in some form - and most worship him as a saviour.
But what, exactly, is he saving us from? Though it varies from church to church, no matter what they call it, it's God himself. A hell created by God, a world fallen as a result of God's negligence, a separation from God imposed... by God.
"It is a counterfeit love that is contingent upon authority, punishment, or reward. True love is respect and admiration, compassion and kindness, freely given by a healthy, unafraid human being."
- Dan Barker, Losing Faith in Faith Christianity certainly isn't the first religion to promote appeasement of its gods, and if it were merely another supernatural protection racket, it would be bad enough. Unfortunately, it doesn't stop there. Christians elevate appeasement to the realm of "personal relationship", transforming their religion into a true monstrosity.
This is the type of "relationship" that abused wives have with their husbands, that brainwashed hostages have with their captors. It is known in clinical circles as Stockholm Syndrome. Should it come as any surprise that the cries of the church, "The Bride of Christ" sound much like the cries of an abused wife attempting to protect her husband?
"He must beat me."
"I deserve it."
"He has no choice."
"It's for my own good."
These excuses don't work for human abusers, and they work even less well for God. For if God is omnipotent, he must have a choice. And if we are flawed, we are only flawed because that is the way he made us. (No excuses that we ruined his perfect creation. A truly perfect creation does not self-destruct.)
If the Christian God does exist - and I see no reason to believe that he does - he's not worthy of the name.
And that is the ultimate absurdity of Christianity.

yes. by faith through grace. I was convicted of my sins and realized this one night during revival at my church. I went to the altar for a year. When my stumbling block was removed, Jesus saved me. I didn't accept him. He accepted me, because then I had truly repented of my sins. I have never looked back on that day with question. Although I have fell out of grace, I have repented again to receive the rewards and blessings. This is not to say that I was ever unsaved again. This is to say, I turned from God and was surrounded by the things of the world. I repented and drew near to God, went back to church and received many blessings.

I am saved from believing in gods. Being saved is a concept that came up thousands of years before our current religions claimed it for themselves. Check out the gods Horus, Mithra, Attis, Zues, Dionysis etc.... You may find you need to be saved from whatever it is you believe in now. Gods are for the weak minded who can't seek answers for themselves.
