You don't even need to believe in God and He/She will still be fine with that.
You have been listening to too much religious nonsense. God is not that insecure that belief is required of anyone.
The real God is unconditionally loving. This is not affected by any of the nonsense about God that religion promotes.
The real God thinks that your great and loves you just the way that you are.
Love and blessings Don

Do you mean "accept" you? Neither god will. That's the thing about religion. You apparently have to choose which you'd follow-- all have the same amount of proof for being right (none).
Some don't punish you for choosing the wrong religion. So it's best to decide which gives out the worst punishment possible for getting the decision wrong. Understand that just choosing is a part of it, you then have to follow all of the rules (no matter how many contradictions you find). You will be punished for getting the choice wrong. Should have chosen the right one, huh?

If you want to belive in God first of all you have to ask yourself: who is this God? What are his attributes? What are his qualities? If you know that there is a creator, then you must ask yourself why did he create the world? for what purpose? So you really cannot just pick teh word God & be satisfied, you have to get to know Him & you have to know what He may offer you & what promises are there for you... If you want to read about God, I siuggeste that you start by the old testamnet, it is the earliest scripture of God then you will follow with him history & you will know How Jesus came & why & for what reason & why people are saying what they say etc....

Answer this, was Jesus a liar? Insane? Or was he what he claimed to be?
Proving that the man Jesus WAS here is easy. Many atheists know he was around. We have non christian documents to prove this; Josephus, Pliny the younger, Tacitus-all non christian sources.
Jesus said, 'I am the way the truth and the life, no one comes to the father except through me"
"For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life" (John 3:16). "For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord" (Romans 6:23). Jesus was born so that He could teach us the way and die for our sins so that we would not have to. Three days after His death, He rose from the grave (Romans 4:25), proving Himself victorious over death. He bridged the gap between God and man so that we may have a personal relationship with Him if we would only believe.
"And this is the way to have eternal life - to know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, the one you sent to earth" (John 17:3). Most people believe in God, even Satan does. But to receive salvation, we must turn to God, form a personal relationship, turn away from our sins, and follow Him.
"We are made right in God's sight when we trust in Jesus Christ to take away our sins. And we all can be saved in this way, no matter who we are or what we have done" (Romans 3:22). The Bible teaches that there is no other way to salvation than through Christ
Jesus is the only way of salvation because He is the only One who can pay our sin penalty (Romans 6:23). No other religion teaches the depth or seriousness of sin and its consequences. No other religion offers the infinite payment of sin that only Jesus Christ could provide. No other “religious founder” was God become man (John 1:1,14) – the only way an infinite debt could be paid. Jesus had to be God so that He could pay our debt. Jesus had to be man so He could die. Salvation is available only through faith in Jesus Christ! “Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved” (Acts 4:12).

"Except" isn't a verb. "Accept" is.
Being a theist doesn't get you any preferential treatment according to the monotheistic religions. You still go to hell with the rest of us heathens.
So, why bother? You know as well as the rest of us do that the whole Jesus/Mohommed/Moses thing is overrated and blatantly false. What does a "belief in the god of all things" get you in life?

There is only one true and living God, and that is Jesus. Islam is a man made religion. If you need deliverance, healing and whatever, Muhamad, Budah or no other god will come to your rescue but Jesus Christ. So, forget about muslim christian. As long as Jesus is your Lord and Savior, he will accept you into Heaven.

Are there still some among you who hold that "only believing" is enough? Believing in one God? Well, remember that the demons believe this too--so strongly that they tremble in terror! (James 2:19)

In order to believe in God, you need to also obey His Commands and in order to do that, you need to follow a religion so that you may understand and practice upon what God (Allah) wants from you!
Hope that helped!

Yes, by defining god, you are opening your belief up to being wrong
