To each his own. Every man's religion is valid to himself.

THEY WORSHIP THEIR IMAGINARY FRIEND, SO THAT MAKES IT BETTER.

The laws in the Bible are to show man that they could not ever obey everyone of them. When a person realizes that and accepts Jesus as their savior knowing that he being fully God and fully man was the only one able to do so and who died for their sins then that person is forgiven. God looks at them as no longer guilty. Now, being a Christian. I try as much as I can to keep the laws in the Bible but when I mess up I know that I must confess those sins. It doesn't make me any better than a non- Christians. The difference between a Christian and a non- Christians is where they will eternally stand on judgement day.

Um. All I can say to this is that Man wrote the Bible, not God. The Bible is meant, in the kindest way, to be a guidline on how to live a good life. It's moral philosophy is what is important. The Bible is made so that we can live as morally good people. To be a good samaritan, to love one another, to be gracius and forgiving. You can't possibly say that these suggestions shouldn't be followed!? Rules were made to help people. Even if you're not Christian, the Quoran and Old Testiment follow the same trail.

Nope, not better, just forgiven.
This is a good question which the Bible anticipates thusly:
a) If we break any part of the Law, we break it all.
b) All have sinned/broken the Law.
Actually, every man's religion is not valid to himself: ask the addict who worships the next high but is desperate to escape. etc

I don't know if you're a christian or if you trust in God. We need ALL the Bible, there is no old testament or new testament - we need this two parts to make the Bible, without one the Bible is incomplete.
Things that have been predicted by God in the old testament has seen their realization in the new testament, an example is Jesus. Many people of God has predicted Jesus arrival like Isaiah.
You must use your free will that God gave you as well as your intelligence and wisdom to know what you will trust or not.

No one is perfect and can obey the bible completely. True christians do not believe they are better than others.

Nobody is better than anybody. But, Christians are still human we all fall short but as long as we keep trying and trying to learn the word and follow the word of God we'll be okay.

If all Christians believe all the bible they are still no better than non-Christians

True Christians don't claim to be better....it's against our "religion". the first shall be last and the last shall be first.
God uses my weakness for His glory. God has only ever used me because of my weaknesses. Paul even said he was the worst of all sinner. Christians aren't better, they're just forgiven.

Better is not even cosidered because we aren't.
More accurate to ask if those who do not obey all of scripture still are saved and that answer is yes.
Salvation is based on faith, not obedience, if one expects blessings and help then one must obey.

They are worse because they choose to be hyprocrits rather than follow the religion they profess to believe in. Of course who wouldn't want a scapegoat to forgive all their sins...makes it so much easier for them to ease a guilty conscience.
