Everybody who says they are christians in 90% percent of the time i say are really not.
Why do I say that?,well not I actually the bible says it :
2 Timothy 2:19 Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.
Romans 8:9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
Matthew 22:14 For many are called, but few [are] chosen
John 3:5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and [of] the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
So do you claim to be or Are You?

So what makes you so sure YOU'RE a Christian? And how can we believe you if you say you are?
Why does it matter, anyway?

of Matthew 22:14
I am called, but only a hundred and forty four thousand are chosen from before! For they are the elect!
of 2 Tim 2:19
I am sealed
of John 3:5 ask any woman who have given birth, if her child was not born of water, but of the Spirit is to be born again.
of Romans 8:9 Is hard, it is more of understanding than of the physical, That the body by sin is dead even as it lives, that your spirit lives if it is the same spirit as Christs. And it is!

I'm a christian,
But I'm not perfect, I do make mistakes and so does every one else. I know my God is a merciful God and He knows we are not perfect. No one is perfect, but God sees our heart and see the hearts of those who really want to serve Him and those who are just pretending. That is why when I pray everyday I always ask Him to forgive me of any sins I may have comitted intentonally and those sins I've commited that I was not aware I was committing. So please do not judge anybody it's God only that can judge. He can use anybody and I mean anybody for his Glory no matter their sin as long as you confess and repent. Look at how God used the prostitute in the bible, she later became a woman of Godly virtues.

I am what I am,and that's a Christian. I realized I was a sinner, Needed Gods forgiveness,Repented and Got Baptized. And here I am now, A Christian. I do agree with what you said though, Alot of people that say they are truly are not.

God didn't write that, men did. Who knows what God wants from us, but we will obviously never know, no matter how many times we say the bible says this, the bible says that.

hey hun....i have to say that yes i know for a fact im a christian...me and my twin sis got saved when we were 12yrs old and when we asked God to save our souls it felt like a weight had been lifted off me and i couldn't stop crying cause my soul was rejoicing!....i have two say that when i see some one else come to know the Lord that i still cry because my soul is rejoicing once again and will continue to do so...i saw to people once in a restaurant. this guy was telling his friend that he had been saved and he was so happy...his friend didn't understand what that meant because she had not been saved so she got a funny look on her face and said...oh that's nice...in order to truly understand God you must be born again!....im so thankful that i am....God came down in the form of man (Jesus Christ) and died on the cross for us....even when we didn't know him and didn't care....Jesus bears the scars of love for me on his hands and his feet....you won't find any one else that will do that for you!.....THANK YOU GOD FOR SAVING THIS SOUL OF MINE!

How do you know who's christian and who's not. Are you some kind of self appointed prophet or seer. Better watch out or they might burn you at the stake.
