Not confused anymore thanks to all but a couple for your understanding.

You are not confused. You are just you. Get used to it!
Basically this is what Jesus actually says. He never said anything about forming a religion, he said seek what is true for you alone.
Well done!

You believe in God, you believe in Jesus, and you believe in principles of the Bible, but you don't go to church. One of the principles in the bible, however, is not to neglect the assembling of believers. We need to have fellowship with each other, and encourage each other in our faith. However many young people who believe are no longer going to church. There is something about the way we do church that turns them off, or that they just can't relate to. What is it exactly? Only you young people could help us to find it, and change it (that would take perseverance and courage) - but you are not there for us. Won't you help us?

a stray sheep or a wolf. All outside the stable of the lord will be savaged by the wolves of evil doing or shot for the evil doers that they are, if you're a wolf that is. All inside will be sheared and lethally injected early in the morning. Everyone else are cannibals or highly evolved sheep who were tough enough to take on the wolf. Make your selection.

It makes you a sinner.... You see satan believes in God too and Jesus too... and he trembles... So believe is not enough... you need to repent... that means... change direction and follow God with all your heart. Going to church does not make you a Christian either. .... any more than sitting on the floor in your garage makes you a car. You need to be a 'new creation' in Christ Jesus. Only Jesus can change you and make you different. It takes faith, repentance and obedience

Doesn't make you anything but a human being. There are many who believe in God and Jesus, but they're not Christians (it that's where you were going with this). I believed in God and Jesus before I was a Christian.

You need to live out your faith, doing service to God by serving human beings.
In the Beginning God created heavens and earth.
God gives you air to breathe and sunshine to enjoy.
God gives you water to drink and food to eat.
God gives you a wonderful body and sound mind, to live.
God loves you, and you are precious to Him.
Son of God died on the Cross to save us from condemnation.
Jesus’ love is boundless and everlasting.
We have the hope of Heaven through Jesus.
Life therefore has fantastic and glorious future!
(Digestion of above can even prevent depression and suicide attempt.)

That's fine and maybe you haven't found a church you like or are ready for that.
God calls His people in their own time.
Continue to pray to God and Jesus... they'll show you the way!
God bless!!!!

Sounds like you have not been attending church, as you stated. It shouldn't be so much what is makes you...but why haven't you?....Going to church is essential to grow spritually. It's "God's House" pay him a visit.

Maybe you just need to read a bit more. Muslims also believe in God and Jesus.

You are what our church calls a LONE RANGER.
When you run into problems, who do you turn to? You need a fellowship, even if it is a bible study that you conduct within your home. (a growing trend)
