So far I'm just getting a lot of 'It's not up to us' answers from Christians. Is that supposed to be helping me>

No, SANCHA, I'm not going to get crass. This is a genuine invitation. I'm opening my mind and soul. I just have some pretty firm rationalist beliefs, which means having an open mind. Which is why I'm doing this. And so far I'm just finding the majority of the answers, well, lazy and throw-away.

Christianity isn't about someone saving you. True Chrisitanity is about finding Godly principals within yourself and living them in your life. You want to be saved...look inside first.

To tell you and some of the Christians that have responded, that they can save you, makes it a) a duty of Christians when it should be out of joy that they are evangelizing, and b) gives the glory to them (and you) if you see this as all man, no God (or even some God) in saving you. Therefore I take the position that says that since everyone stands condemned before the Lord, no one has the ability to look to Him for salvation. God must do the work, man's only part in the salvation process is to share the joy of what God has done for them in their lives -- not to argue with anyone or "do God's work for him".
May your journey to the Lord be a fruitful one.

I took the time to read some of the answers already posted.
So, what are you going to do now? Be Mr. Tough Guy and make some crass remark?
Well! It's your call. But no one is going to try to convince you.
You will have to take that 'chance' that your toughness will do the job.

No person can save you. Only your belief in Jesus Christ is needed for your salvation. Then you will begin your journey of healing and deliverance developing you into the person our Lord intended you to be. My experience with those who are reluctant to receive Jesus into their life are the ones who become the most on fire for Him and passionate to serve Him. I believe you are wise enough to become the most you can be so...CONGRATULATIONS and Welcome you to the Christian family...in advance.

No Christian can save you. Only Jesus can "save" you, and only if you "want" to be saved. No one can help you against your own will.

Only you can save you. We can do our best to help you and console you, but ultimately it's up to you as to whether or not you want to be saved or not.

You have free will to do what you'd like. Do not depend on others.

Save you from what.
Or save you for what.
Make your mind up, this is confusing.

Know one can save you except yourself.
