I believe in Jesus Christ, Jehovah God.
By stipulations I think you mean reasons.
Besides the fact that there is more evidence to support the truth of scripture than any other "holy" book or religion, my own personal experiences have made it silly, not to mention impossible, to believe in anything else.
What other religion has spread as rapidly in an environment more hostile to it than Christianity did? The Romans tried to destroy it before it could grow, but the more Christians they martyred the more the faith spread. Sure, Islam spread fairly quickly, but they did it with the sword, not simply by preaching. Hinduism is widely practiced, but when has it ever been persecuted?

I believe what God's Word, The Bible says about Jehovah God(YHWH or JHVH in Hebrew)) and his only begotten Son, the first born of creation, and savior, Jesus Christ.
I believe in the promises to his creation, Humankind. The Bible is our instruction manual and guidebook to make it through this sick and evil system of things that is ruled by Satan the Devil.
If you were to actually pick up the Bible and read it, all 66 books in it, you would see it plain as day. Jehovah's name or symbol YHWH appeared over 6,973 times in the Bible. King James had his name removed and replaced with titles such as "Lord", "The Lord", "Adonai", or "God". The divine name appears first in Genesis 22:14- And Abraham began to call the name of that place Jehovah Jireh. This is why it is customarily said today: " In the mountain of Jehovah it will be provided."
Exodus 3:13 Moses asks God what is his Name to tell the nation of Israel? 14 At this God said to Moses"Ishall prove to be what I shall prove to be" 15 "This is what you are to say to the sons of Israel,'Jehovah the God of your forefathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the GOd of Jacob, has sent me to YOU. This is my name to time indefinite and this is the memorial of me to generation after generation.
Pslam 83:18- " That people may know that you whose name is Jehovah, You alone are the Most High, over all the earth.
Jesus is the firstborn son of all creation, as in the letter to the Colossians 1: Paul an apostle of Christ through God's will...
then in 15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation; 16 because by means of him all other things were created in the heavens and upon earth, the things visible and the things invisible, no matter whether they are thrones or lordships or governments or authorities. All other things have been created through him and for him.
Jesus now sets at the right hand of Jehovah God and is installed as King of Jehovah's Kingdom.

I dont believe that jesus was the sun of God, but I do believe in God. I believe that everything is God and God is everything. A universal soul I guess. I dont think that God plays a role in humans lives or worldly events either.

I'm agnostic... I don't think there is any solid proof proving or disproving the existence of deities. I do not believe in the divinity of human beings like Jesus of Nazareth.
I do believe in my fellow human being.. the person standing next to me...and mother Earth. They are worth my time and effort.

I believe there is a god, but I do not believe the bible is the true book of christ. Too many MEN have re-written or misinterpreted the book written by God. I think women have been casted out of anything regarding leadership with religion, and that this has really killed it. Religion is based on MAN's Ideas without and input from a women. Plus I have not seen him

I don't accept the generic monotheistis perception on divinity.
I do not believe any single person, book, place or whatever is any more "holy" than another.
I believe everything and everyone has it/their own sacredness, their own spirit, it this does not rely on any self-proclaimed authority to endorse it. Nor can true spirituality be imposed by another, or originate through a second- or third-hand source.

The Almighty YHVH set up a system. He sent His “Son” YAHOSHUA to die for the sins of mankind so they would not have to. (They could choose to, but did not have to). Any person who chooses not to allow Yahoshua to take care of their sins, chooses to remain attached to their sins. They thus will wind up in the lake of fire which is YHVH’s method of cleaning this world, and eliminating sin and sinners. The Creator set aside the Seventh day for rest and worship. Yes that is the day usually called “Saturday”. We are not saved by obedience, we are saved by faith. However we are saved FOR obedience. As He said in John 14:15 (and in many other places) “If you love me, keep my commandments.
Churchianity is a pagan religion. The only thing that will change a person is the indwelling savior Yahoshua. Obviously that is rare in this sinful world.

Nope - I'm an atheist. I believe in science, in rationality. I want to see it, I want to see how it works, I want to see it work repeatedly. When someone parts the Red Sea 6 times a week, on command, and does 2 matinee showings on Sunday, then I'll start to think about it.
