What do you love most about Jesus and being a Christian?

Question

Only True Christians need respond! If you are someone whose lifestyle goes against the Lord's teachings please do not answer. Thank you.

As this is a free country, I'll include or no include anyone I want with this question. I am only interested in what Christians because atheists and non-believers will only try to bring the quality of the answers down, as shown by those how have responded negatively to this question. Thankfully I won't have to deal with those people in the hereafter, Praise JESUS!

Answer 1

I answered this for what marvels you most about your religion - please note I don't believe THIS is a religion - It's my faith, My relationship with God, my lifestyle here goes -

Love of God, Grace of God, His manifest presence, Love of God.

The fact that God wanted a personal realtionship with me (with the whole world), that He sent His son to die and rise again in power. Like a man would never die for a bad man, however might possibly die in place of a good man. Jesus died for all to recieve salvation (which includes healing, freedom, life (abundantly), peace, joy, faithfullness, self-control.

I can choose to follow Him freely (in my country - I know some people don't have that freedom.) I can choose to obey Him, God is patient with me, (even though sometimes I am a stubborn girl.)

God's compassion for me, for my itsy bitsy problems, that he gives me the answers or sends people to help me out.

God's words which are contained in the Bible are truly awesome -
I had a massive phobia a snakes - to the point where I couldn't look at pictures of a snake in books or on TV it would produce a very drasitic physical response - pulse races, heart beat goes very fast, shakes. I meditated on "For God did not give you a Spirit of Fear but of power, love and sound mind" 2 Tim 1:7

I held on to that and quoted it every time I was reminded by God, or was fearful. God pulled me through and He gives clarity of thought, so clear.

I really should be a big fat (literally) sobbing mess, forever, but God rescued me (this time personal) He pulled me back in.

Now I keep drawing myself close to God. It is absolutely marvelous and I learn more each day (even though I have been a follower of Christ for 16 years.)

Answer 2

Words do not do justice in explaining what it is like to know Jesus. the human language has been so diminished by over usage for everything that its lost its power to describe the true essence of something so Great. When I say the Love of Jesus is all consuming and in the most pure form known to exist....it does not fairly describe its vastness of this statement. When I say God's mercy and forgiveness wipes away years of barriers and imperfection...it does not even grasp the truthfulness of this statement. Only those touched by Him can begin to understand how deep and far these words go

Answer 3

Knowing that I have the priviledge and opportunity to serve a righteous, holy, perfect, loving, forgiving, gracious God. Knowing that I get the priviledge to go to church and praise Him, and hear the preaching of His Word. Knowing that I will never touch Hell, or even see it. Knowing that I have eternal life in heaven, and having the peace and the joy in my life that goes along with that.

Answer 4

His love, His forgiveness, His mercy, and His grace.

I can honestly say that being a Christian is hard but I am trying to persevere so that I can see Jesus face to face.

Answer 5

The answers. If you truly ask a question to God, you will get an answers. I don't mean that God will send you an Email. It could take years to arrive. That's because I was not ready for the answer at the time I asked.

Answer 6

Jesus Christ is the only one who paid for the prize of my sin and your own sin.When I remember his agony during his crucifixion on the cross, I feel relieved with the joy of God's glory in his resurrection.

Answer 7

bushsaveslives (...lie of the century, but anyway...), you might want to specify just what a "True Christian™" is.

After that, look up the No True Scotsman fallacy. Try not to be so exclusive next time. This is an open forum... any Christian can answer this question if they want.

Answer 8

What I love is that Jesus loved us enough to give His life for us so that we could spend eternity with Him. I love that God has complete control over everything in my life. I am also so thankful for his grace, mercy, love, and forgiveness!

Answer 9

That He knows everything about me, my every hope, fear, failing, desire, my next thought, my next word, my future, my past; there is no one who knows me more intimately. And that He is devoted to to guarding me and giving me a life of purity, hope, assurance, joy, peace and wisdom. He is with me every minute of every day and looks out for me always. I love Him and trust Him with everything about my life and my future. I am grateful that I know Him and His word.

Answer 10

that He changes me from the inside out,i know without a doubt that i'll be in heaven with Him
