Jesus said, "I AM the Way Truth & Life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.".
I go to church. I have a wonderful pastor who preaches faith and overcoming negativity and increase in Christ.
Jesus Christ is Yeshua Messiah. Yeshua is named that because it means He will Save His People. Savior. Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior.

God is the Greatest. The One who has created all and the One who's hands is my soul.
Jesus Christ was His chosen messenger for the people of Israel. He was to convey the message of unity and salvation through unity. He embodied nothing but good traits and was therefore a man to live by.
I do not attend church as I have no obligation to.
but I have visited many churches and appreciated the architecture.
And yes I believe salvation is a need and can only be achieved through right actions and the avoidance of bad ones.
Good day

Yes I go to church, but church is not what saves you.
We are saved by grace, not by works, so that no one can boast.
We are saved by grace alone. Recall that in Acts 16:31 the jailer asked Paul and Silas how to be saved. They responded, "Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved." The jailer believed and immediately became saved.
Close to 200 times in the New Testament salvation is said to be by faith alone - with no works in sight. Consider the following:
John 3:15 tells us that "everyone who believes in him may have eternal life."
John 5:24 says, "I tell you the truth, whoever hears my words and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be condemned; he has crossed over from death to life."
In John 11:25 Jesus says, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies."
John 23:46 says, "I have come into the world as a light, so that no one who believes in me should stay in darkness."
John 20:31 says, "But these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name."
If salvation were not by faith alone, then Jesus' message in the Gospel of John - manifest in the above quotations - would be deceptive, stating that there is one condition for salvation when there are allegedly two - faith and works.
I must emphasize that we are saved by faith for works. Works are not the condition of our salvation, but a consequence of it We are saved not by works, but by the kind of faith that produces works.
Eph 2:8-10 God saved you by his special favor when you believed. And you can't take credit for this: It is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it. For we are God's masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus so that we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.

I think God is impossible to prove/disprove.
I think Jesus was a false prophet, if he even existed at all.
No, I do not go to church. Organized religion is the source of everything wrong with the world today.
No, I do not believe in salvation.

Jesus was an enlightened teacher whose sound moral message has been hijacked by religionists and turned into a vast edifice of meaningless dogma.

I think christians are sick people that need therapy, and im a Pagan, yeah go ahead and get that smug look of *im not a christian so im going to hell* wipe that grin off your face, sadistic people. I was a christian for 25 years, until i realized how twisted and backstabbing they are, yeah my blood mom and sister hate each other, and both of them are christians of different sects, christianity is anti feminine, anti black, anti gay. they pretend they arent but its just a facade. I believe there are billions of Gods and Goddesses, and very few are as bad as Jehova was. I believe the ultimant God is just the spirit within us all, the force of nature.

The Christian religion is all crap and does nothing but cause suffering for others. And remember, YOU ASKED ME, not the other way around.
If you don't want an honest answer, don't ask the question.
