i wont tell you to be a christian because i want you to see if Christianity is for you. it is not fairies and gibberish as someone stated above. read the bible, go to a church, find a christian mentor. people say Christianity is violent and bad but those same people forget the good messages in the bible that dictates much of our American policy. if you desire something else, research. go to the library. i would say whatever you do, find someone of the faith that follows the religion to learn more. dont just read and especially do not ask here on answers since there is so much bias and everyone wants you to covert and believe what they want u to. jesus was a real man, and the son of God. Jesus can be verified through history.

The sick, not the well, seek a physician. Either you know you are in need or you don't. You cant " try on" Christianity to see if it fits. Either you have come to that place where you know you are a sinner and that you need your sins forgiven or you have not. If you have come to that place then Christ is your only hope. If you have not come to that place then the religion you garb yourself in has no value, even if His name is attached to it. The great claim of Christianity is that He arose from the dead and can be experienced as real as any person you know. However, do not look for Him on the TV or such, for He dwells with him who is lowly of heart and a contrite Spirit...He opposes the proud, especially those who falsely claim to represent Him. Anyone who claims to represent Him must also walk as He walked. To be a Christian is to be a "little Christ". But this does not come by mere human effort, either you have been born from above or you have not. And that does not happen apart from knowing your need to have your sins forgiven.

Jesus is real. Christianity is the only true religion. No i am not trying to brain wash u i am stating a fact. U know what, when i pray God speaks back. When i pray for someones injuries they get healed. Not after a few weeks or months or yrs but immediatly. God is real, Jesus is God. Check out my link, find other spirit filled churches. Seriously God is amazing we are the boring ones. I am so passionate about Him. He changed me so much. I used to b, kinda of a loner and overweight, i used to b addicted to porn, i used have suicidal tendacies, i used to b full of hate, and now i have been set free of all that. I am extremely happy now and very passionate. I have too many friends to count, am disgusted at porn, and never think about suicide. Jesus has changed my life for the best! Oh yeah and im thin now.

Yes, Jesus is very real. When you read the gospel of Luke, for example look at the introduction- the first part of Chap. 1. Luke knows eyewitnesses of Jesus- not just hearing about it and writing it down years later. Jesus came to earth to die for me and you. Then He rose from the dead. For someone to ask if Jesus is real shows me that the Holy Spirit is drawing you to God- only the Holy Spirit can do that. Christianity is not a "religion" but a relationship. God loves you so much that He sent His son to die for you and for me so we can have a everlasting relationship with Him. Do not choose any religion, choose God= and Jesus is the only way to Him.

Jesus is the savior.
What needs to be saved is your question beneth the surface? You need to be saved is the answer. Who are you? Should you be saved if you grow up to cure cancer, become a mother, or end up being a street begging homeless person? Jesus saves all. His mercy is vast and great.
However, just like you would have a challenging time sharing all your being so too is the journey to find Jesus. I would urge you to search for Jesus in your heart, The Bible, and with the community (Church, family, and friends).
Only Jesus can really call you to salvation. From the small amount you've shared, it sounds like he's calling you - try to listen.

Yes. Jesus absolutely real.... and it can be hard to understand at first. Try not to fall into the traps of all the nonreligious people on this website either.... remember, misery loves company and when people don't believe in God, they aren't happy and they subconsciously try to bring people down with them.
Definitely read the bible and try going to a good youth group in your area. Having Christian friends definitely played a large role in me finding Christ, because everyone has their own experiances with God.
Finding God in your life can be the most amazing thing imaginable. If you pray and read the bible you can be filled with the holy spirit...and you can honestly feel God in your heart....but definitely, try to find a youth group that sings good music because that really helped me feel closer to God.
Being a Christian is hard, it isn't supposed to be easy. The world isn't so great of a place and people will be against you. They will mock you and insult your intelligence. But God can give you strength and the ultimate reward! eternal salvation!! People think that they are rebelling or something when they reject Jesus, but actually they are just falling pressure to society and the sin of the world.
Be strong, read the Bible, and try to find some strong Christians your age....and rememebr to pray, God wants you to find him because he loves you and wants you to be saved. God bless.

No matter what anyone tells you, the truth is that no one here on Earth KNOWS the truth. People can BELIEVE things, but no one knows.
And that isnt to say that Jesus wasnt real or God doesnt exist, but be wary of anyone who says they KNOW the truth.
I'd recommend filling your head with as much knowledge as you can and just let your decision follow, rather than trying to choose A, B, or C.
Peace...

He is definitely real and everything the Bible says about him is true. He is the Son of God and he died and came back to life so we could all be forgiven for our sins if we ask for it. He made it possible for every human who ever lived and who will live to go live with him in the ultimate paradise in Heaven where there is more happiness and fun than anyone can imagine! Here are some links that explain exactly who he is: http://www.near-death.com/experiences/research22.html

No. i've got faith the Magi handed in the process the land close to Bethlehem or Jeruselem at night following the celeb and observed some people tending their flocks of sheep. i think of that sheep in that component of the international left their sheep out at night purely from April to September, something of the time being too chilly. So that's in all hazard that Jesus replaced into born sometime in the time of that era.
