Serious question! God could be Allah or a Higher Power or the Creator of the Universe or any name you choose. Jesus and other spiritual masters are included. Interested or not? Reasons?

bluebootz,
If they aren't Christian,they are not paying attention to the teachings of Jesus. True that they didn't call themselves Christians while Jesus walked the Earth, but if it
Muslims that you are referring to, they got Him all wrong! Jesus allowed others to worship Him, He is God. And they don't seem to want to believe that. 1 John calls people that do that antichrists. Antichrsits. And that's what Muslims are, antichrists.
If you are referring to the Ba'hai, no I would not. Jesus said, ":You cannot serve two masters." And I believe Him!

Well, you can't go by Jesus' teachings and not being Christian thats like saying, "why isn't my car starting?" only to find there isn't A engine in it. the body of the car isn't nothing without the engine right? if you go by God's and Jesus' teachings, YOU are A Christian.

I am a Christian,but Christians aren't the only religious group that is going to make it to Heaven. So,yes,I don't think there is anything wrong with changing your current religion to another that teaches the same as what you already believe.

Don't think about it in terms of what religion you are joining, think about it terms of what religion you are following and obeying.
It sounds to me like your question is really: "Can I find God outside of Christianity?"
You should ask yourself if you believe in the God of Christianity. If you do, then why go elsewhere? If you do not, then why seek him elsewhere? You cannot have it both ways. If you are looking for the Christian God, then you will find him in Christianity.

christian is just a word, I am a soldier of the living god. I live to die, i exist to give my life for the lord my commander. This ministry or that, nothing for i am not religious, i live by every word which proceeds out of the mouth of god. Want to know what is right, not for me to question for i do what i am told. The decision is to the lord our god, before you make any decision you seek his counsel first.
That goes to any body and every body who believes the lord Jesus Christ to be our savior for not every body who calls on the name of the lord will be saved.

No religions for me. If someone began a church like that, what would be it's authority? Why would I believe some contrived bogus club if I won't fall for it now? Why should I follow false doctrine, just to BELONG to something? I'm not that weak minded.

I would never join any religion. I'm glad I get to decide my own choices, without consulting a book or a priest.

No. I don't believe in any supernatural entities. I see no reason to worship anything that can't be proven, regardless of whether or not it is Christian.

Yes as the CREATOR of ALL things has as many names as there are stars in the sky and grains of sand in the oceans.
