This question is dedicated to all those (mostly christian, but occasionally others as well) who have asked me if I'm a "believer or non-believer" and then proceeded to offer me their "proof".
So, now that I'm a roostarian (J4R) and know the TRUTH about the MESSIAH and Biblical Prophecies, I ask: Are YOU a Believer?

I believe in something, but to put all of your faith and belief into one system is foolish, and then to ask a question that you may not fully understand the answer to either is foolish.
Yes, I believe Jesus (and his philosophy was excellent) was a fantastic person, and would have loved to been around him, but I don't believe all the crap around him.
For one to believe, you have to be willing to have an open mind about other things. I believe all the religions have something right. What they are, I don't rightly know, but I aspire to learn them.
To answer your question: I am a believer, just not in the same sense that you are.

yes, all anyone has to do is reference the famous author C.S. Lewis ("The Lion, The Witch, & The Wardrobe") to learn the proof of Christianity. He even wrote a book on it titled "Mere Christianity". He even said once that some people often think of faith as the way a pilot thinks of a parachute...it is there for emergencies but you hope you never have to use it.

"(To believe, is to doubt. Knowledge is the key.)" W.S. Moore:
When one believes something, they are basically saying; I am not sure, but base on some knowledge I've gain it seems right; so I will go along with it. If you are going to trust your life to something or someone, wouldn't you rather know the truth than marely believe what you were told that the truth is?...

No, at least not in your Rabbi. One of the prophsies of Jesus was that when he returned, no one would be praying to God in the correct manner. I have noticed that many do not, especially churches who only echo his words then pray as if God were familiar with them. At least one person in each generation has learned the truth, else we wouldn't be able to learn any truth.

I'll ask you the same quesiton as I would any who put forth such an open ended question. A believer in what? Walt Disney? Demorats?(NO). In Jesus the Christ? Most definately. He loves you too.

Absolutely. I have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and God my Heavenly Father - both. What a blessing! What a gift!
