being a christian is being a sinner. You can not be a christian if you are not a sinner. All people are sinners. Jesus died on the cross for all our sins. To get to Heven you must accept Jesus's gift of deth and make him your personal savior. If you do not accept Jesus you go to hell. The ? is not if you are a sinner the ? is if you accept Jesus. Heven will be full of sinners. But Hell will not be full of Christians. (This is for the people who say ALL sinners go to hell) Don't reply to a christians ? with stupid answers untill you know what a christian is and believes.

OK lets get nit picky. Accept Jesus and all that entails. Confession, witnessing, following in his footsteps etc.

First, you say all Christians are sinners.. then you say all people are sinners, yet.. all people aren't Christians. You're not making any sense. Your statement is a fallacy.
Let me tell you something - the only sins Jesus died for was his own.

Being a sinner isn't a pre-requisite to being a Christian. Everyone is a sinner.
Acknowledging our sin, or agreeing with God that we are sinners is the issue.
Nice rant though

Of course, you are assuming that all Christians hold the exact same belief that you do. some of us believe that we are not automatically sinners, but we have to conciously sin, then conciously ask forgiveness Andsome of us go by the parable of the good samaritan, that people who live good lives, and go out of their way to help others get a fee pass even if they aren't fundamental christians.If you get your nose out of revelations, and into the actual teachings of Jesus, you might realize this as well

the question is not whether you accept Jesus, the question is whether or not you believe, repent, be born again (commonly called accepting Jesus) and walk in newness of life. Matt 7:21 "Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, BUT ONLY HE WHO DOES THE WILL OF MY FATHER WHO IS IN HEAVEN.

No I don't accept Jesus.
"Don't reply to a christians ? with stupid answers untill you know what a christian is and believes."
So after we know what a christian is and believes we can respond with stupid answers?

To get to Heaven, you have to obey Acts 2:38. There is no scripture that says to accept Him as your personal saviour.
