what is my religion or belief called?

Question

To be honest, with the bang big theory and the hundred trillion religions in the word, I'm not sure what to believe in. I have always labeled myself as a Christian. Here is what I think, people should live like they want to live their lives and be free humans and also take life for everything it has to offer. And with some Christian faith I believe that people should try to sin at a minimum, ask God for forgiveness, and accept Jesus into our hearts, Thats it.

Answer 1

Check out the link below. It's from Beliefnet, and it is a quiz about your beliefs that (IMO) fairly accurately corrolates your beliefs with those of a number of religions, showing you those which have the most in common with your own.

Answer 2

You are on the right track,I don't believe you have to join a religion either,the most important thing is you believe Jesus Christ died on the cross for your sins and the rest of the world.Most religion have lots of politics and all of them are very wealthy with stocks and the whole thing.The best thing is to live righteous give to people less fortunate than yourself if you can,and always be willing to help others.Those are the important things god looks for.This life I believe is just a big test in how we treat mankind.

Answer 3

That would still be called Christianity, even if it is in a pared down form. In it's most rudimentary form, Christians believe Christ died for their sins and accept that forgiveness. In response, Christians seek to remove sin from their own lives.

Your description falls into that category. There are a lot of other things of varying importance one could add to the list, but you covered the most important ones.

Answer 4

That would be a ' Non-Denominational Christian ' if you need a label. or just plain " Christian " works too.

The Big Bang is a scientific Theory, not a religion. Yes you should accept people for who they are, or " Love thy Neighbor."

I think you're one of the few people that's gotten it right. In terms of Christianity. Best wishes.

Answer 5

Go ahead. Ask questions. The first question should be, if god really exist. And there is nothing wrong with associating yourself as a Christian or atheis. You must be honest with yourself and others too. You must do things sincerely too. May be one day, you will start believing that god exist.

Answer 6

Its called being a good and rational person. You will like the Unitarian Universalist version of Christianity, if there are any in your area. They are extremely open-minded and think like you. Also, investigate humanism, which you might find interesting even if you label yourself Christian:

Answer 7

CONFESS OUT LOUD WITH YOUR MOUTH WHEN YOU BELIEVE IN YOUR HEART THAT JESUS CHRIST DIED AND WAS RESURRECTED TO PAY FOR YOUR SINS. ROMANS 10:9 WHEN YOUR BORN AGAIN YOU BECOME A NEW PERSON, AND AS PAUL AKA SAUL, SAYS IN HEBREWS 10:26 GO BACK TO DOING WHAT YOU DID BEFORE IT DOESN'T COUNT. WHY WOULD YOU EVEN WANT TO? I AM THE WAY, THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE . NO MAN COMETH TO THE FATHER BUT BY ME. JOHN 14:6 SOME MEN LOVE THE PRAISE OF MEN MORE THAN THEY DO THE PRAISE OF GOD. JOHN 12:43



GOD BLESS

Answer 8

You can just call yourself a Christian, but why do you need a label? When some one asks me what I am [really they mean, what religion am I, ], I just say I'm a Humanist, [pro human].

Answer 9

Maannn!..you consider yourselves a Christian but you've doubt about your faith in Christian....You better keep believing it cos you will be safe from Hell when the Judgement Day comes....Every Religions teaches their deciples not to commit Sins......

Answer 10

If you beleive this....

Answer: Webster’s Dictionary defines a Christian as “a person professing belief in Jesus as the Christ or in the religion based on the teaching of Jesus.” While this is a good starting point in understanding what a Christian is, like many secular definitions, it falls somewhat short of really communicating the biblical truth of what it means to be a Christian.



The word Christian is used three times in New Testament (Acts 11:26; Acts 26:28; 1 Peter 4:16). Followers of Jesus Christ were first called “Christians” in Antioch (Acts 11:26) because their behavior, activity, and speech were like Christ. It was originally used by the unsaved people of Antioch as a kind of contemptuous nickname used to make fun of the Christians. It literally means, “belonging to the party of Christ” or an “adherent or follower of Christ,” which is very similar to the way Webster’s Dictionary defines it.



Unfortunately over time, the word "Christian" has lost a great deal of it significance and is often used of someone who is religious or has high moral values instead of a true born again follower of Jesus Christ. Many people who don’t believe and trust in Jesus Christ consider themselves Christians simply because they go to church or they live in a "Christian" nation. But going to church, serving those less fortunate than you, or being a good person does not make you a Christian. As one evangelist once said, “Going to church doesn’t make one a Christian anymore than going to a garage makes one an automobile.” Being a member of a church, attending services regularly, and giving to the work of the church cannot make you a Christian.



The Bible teaches us that the good works we do cannot make us acceptable to God. Titus 3:5 tells us that it is “not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit.” So, a Christian is someone who has been born-again by God (John 3:3; John 3:7; 1 Peter 1:23) and has put their faith and trust in Jesus Christ. Ephesians 2:8 tells us that it is “by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God.” A true Christian is someone who has repented of his or her sin and put faith and trust in Jesus Christ alone. Their trust is not in following a religion or a set of moral codes, or a list of do’s and don’ts.



A true Christian is a person who has put his or her faith and trust in the person of Jesus Christ and fact that He died on the cross as payment for sins and rose again on the third day to obtain victory over death and to give eternal life to all who believe in Him. John 1:12 tells us: “But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name.” A true Christian is indeed a child of God, a part of God’s true family, and one who has been given new life in Christ. The mark of a true Christian is love for others and obedience to God’s Word (1 John 2:4; 1 John 2:10).

Than your a christian
