Since this is in the political section, I will give you a political answer:
Stop trying to dictate to the rest of the world and America how to live.
Ppl have every right to make their own choices as long as they stay within the confinements of the law.

you have to commit your life to following him and live 4 christ!
I think u have the best ? on here cause i've been a Christian all of my life and i'll tell you this, asking Jesus Christ into your heart is the best decision you will make in your life and to make it to heaven you just have to pray and ask God to forgive your sin's and just stay with him all the way 'till death. Plus christianity isn't a religion, but it's relationship with Jesus where u can talk to him whenever u want to. and christianity isn't the same thing as mormon, catholic, methodist, etc. but it's the only religion that's right in life because like i said, it's not a religion it's a relationship. Pleaze ask more ?'s I'd love to answer them. k2hardtail@yahoo.com

Being a Christian isn't about DOING as much as it is about BEING. It's in your heart and the way you live. It's having a personal relationship with God and living basically as a representative for Him.
Once you become a Christian, THEN you'll feel compelled to follow God's commandments out of gratitude for the gifts and grace he has bestowed on you. (see Ephesians 2:8&9). You can't DO anything to become a Christian, but once you are one, your actions should reflect his love and grace to others.

That's interesting; I never heard anyone say they were "going to be a Christian" before. Anyway, if you recognize that you're a sinner and you're sorry for it, being a Christian is pretty simple. Repent, or turn away from, your sinful habits and ways. Ask Jesus to forgive your sins--confess them all to Him and ask Him to remind you of any you've overlooked--and come into your life and be your Lord and Savior. He will look upon you in perfect mercy and love, and will receive you into His keeping.
Next, keep your faith growing strong by reading the Bible, praying with confession and repentance each day, and engaging in fellowship with other Christians.
You need to know that Satan hates losing you, and he will try every trick in the book to undermine your faith, and make you give up on God and turn back to sin. Just keep your eyes on Jesus and place all your trust in Him, and you'll be OK.
Congratulations on your decision--may God bless you richly!

The main goal is to be a martyr. Alert people of your righteous path as often as possible. Don't despair if you provoke them into an argument: you're looking for persecution and any means by which you can suffer with Christ vicariously--short of giving away your wealth to the needy, or remaining nonjudgmental of heathens, or participating in politics by funding Republicans. Also, tell people who aren't Christians that you'll "pray for them." That's not at all a belittling thing to say.

Go to church, follow the ten commandments, take Jesus into your heart. Read the Bible if you want to know more. Also, what kind of Christian, Protestant, Catholic, Mormon, or other. There are many different kinds of Christians with different kinds of beliefs.

Being a Christian does not mean that you're in just another religion it means that you have personal relationship with Jesus Christ. To get to know him better you read your Bible as often as possible and go to church not just to learn about him but also to fellowship with other believers.

Christianity is a lifestyle. The whole purpose is to try as much as possible to be christ-like. Read the bible, pray to God and have faith. Congratulations!

Start by trying to follow the ten commandments. That's a pretty tall order right there.

Deuteronomy 10:12
Micah 6: 8 and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?
