or more of self glorification and worldwide supremecy?
Because I see a lot of christians who are very boastfull and commit a lot of sins. Or maybe it's just me? And I am not saying all christians because I come accross a lot of righteous ones. But for some odd reason, they don't think like the other christians. Why is that?

Whynotaskdon is a jerk. I put this question because I see it all the time and I know christians struggle with this same dilema inside thier own religion. This question can clear a lot of inquiries.

As in any population of groups of people,whether black,white yellow, orange, Muslims,Christians, right wing, left wing etc.. etc... There are good examples of what they believe in, and there are the extremists, bad examples.
You know, there are always bad apples in the barrel of good apples.
Christianity is all about glorifying God and walking in the Truth and Light as Jesus walked. Christ in us. The rest are deceivers, false believers.

There's a tremendous difference between a true Christian and a religious person who calls themselves a Christian. True Christian know that God loves them without limit, therefore we try to and struggle with our own weaknesses and short comings. Whereas, religious Christians walk around believing that because they do everything the right way, that this is what God will bless them for, which is very wrong.

The problem with most Christians, atheists, and other non-believers is that they call Christianity a religion when, in reality, it's a RELATIONSHIP, people...!
It's not all about following a set of rules...!
It’s about joining His family…!
When we believe in Jesus and believe in our heart that He suffered, died for everyone’s sins, and rose again, we're granted the right to become children of God... So, the way I see it, we have our Father who is in heaven (I prefer to call Him "Daddy"), Jesus is our Brother - as He said that whoever does His Father's will is mother, daughter, and brother to Him, and the Holy Spirit who finishes the work to be done in us as well as handles whatever tasks He wishes to accomplish through us...
As for the last part of your question...? Everybody thinks differently to some extent...

It's just you.
True Christians do not have to Submit-like the moon worshipers do.
True Christians simply have to ACCEPT the Plan of Salvation!
Fabulous!
Wonderful!

There is a saying "God's mercy, Man's work", meaning if you want Salvation, you have to do your part of the bargain. He won't just give you mercy like that as in the end, you will judged by your actions.

christians say jesus died for their sins so does that mean they can do wateva they wnt? i mean they will be forgiven and go to heaven even if they r criminals right. as long as u accept jesus christ to be ur saviour, u go heaven. well wat abt the good ppl who dnt accept him as their saviour? y do soo many christians fornicate? is that allowed?
