Do you consider yourself a real Christian if so how ?

Question

I have been on a site of dating for 4 months and people use to say they are christian and gay or they explain the amount of sexual relationships they have with they partnes do you thing those people really know what is to be a real Christian ??

Answer 1

The anointing given me. The Spirit of Truth who gives me assurance in my spirit, that I am a child of God, and I pray to Father God, Jesus Christ the Lord anytime any place. Because of the anointing, the seal of God unto the redemption day complete.

Anyone who isn't saved from their inequities aren't yet born of God, born of His Spirit, cleansed by His blood, joint heirs with Jesus, part of the family of God. But many people who are Born of God, born of His Spirit, clansed by His blood, joint heirs with Jesus, part of the family of God, used to be in sexual bondages, or idolatries, other bondages, etc... but are set free.

Answer 2

I am not a christian I am atheist but I do like the religion, well the good parts of it. I know what you mean there are people that go to church every Sunday then they go out and have sex on the first date, or they say the words "God damn it" when they are home. but what can you expect when there is an idol in every church? almost know one is a real christian in the country. to tell you the truth if i actually met a real christian girl who follows the bible and did what it said I would probably convert back and marry her!

Answer 3

i dont think they know what it takes to be a real christian because if they know the will not involve themselves in immoralities as it is written in Eph. 5 no immoral, impure or greedy person such a man is an idolater - has an inheritance in the Kingdom of Christ and of God."

also in the book of John 3 which say unless a man be born again, he cannot see the Kingdom of God.

and i think they dont really understand the meaning of christianity.

Answer 4

Being a real Christian means to have submitted your life to God and to emulate Christ in every aspect of your life, to honour Him in every way possible. We are called to love EVERYBODY not just who we want to, this includes gays, lesbians, Muslims, Arabs, Catholics, absolutely everybody!

A lot of Christians refuse to because they think its wrong to be gay. But that shouldn't stop them from showing Christs love because that is what we are supposed to do!

I definately wouldn't go as far as saying I'm a good Christian, I want to honour God more and more but my lust for earthly things is very strong! I know He can conquer all so will remember that.

Answer 5

Yes....through trusting in Jesus as my Savior Who gave His LIFE
for me to pay for my sins with His precious Blood that I might be justified by faith....by the mercy and grace of Almighty God, and thus I was sealed and baptized into the Body of Christ by the power of the Holy Spirit, redeeming me for all eternity......

Romans 10:9.

There is such a thing as "cultural" christendom where people be-lieve that if they aren't Jewish or muslim and are anglo-saxon in background or "white Americans" or whatever or that their parents
had them baptized as children, that must mean that they are
"christian", but they will be in for a horrible shock if they go on with
this delusion when they come to stand before God one day....
NONE of that makes somebody a "christian" anymore than living in a garage makes you a car, as Joyce Meyer would say :)
Jesus said, YOU MUST BE BORN AGAIN.....and you can only
be BORN AGAIN, which is NOT an "evangelical' term, by trusting
Jesus as your personal Savior.
I don't know what the people on your dating site are...but that is
pretty much what "cultural" christendom is all about....for lack of a
better term.
If you would really like to know about receiving Jesus as your Savior and knowing that your sins are paid for and that you will spend eternity in Heaven as a child of God, would you PLEASE call this number.....

Answer 6

Those people dont sound like True Christians. I know I am because my pastor and some others in our church have taught me the ways to show my love for Christ. Sometimes I need a refresher course (haha) but they are always willing to let me prove I'm worthy of Heaven.

You should go to church to meet people.

Answer 7

I don't know what that means apart from trying to follow Christ's teachings. By a real Christian do you mean someone who believes sex is evil? I don't really believe that.

Answer 8

I think what really divides the sheep from the goats is how much faith someone has in resolving conflicts in order to restore good faith relations and reconciling different viewpoints in order to establish common truth. I share in this faith, and I accredit it to
the power of Christ as the mediator between God and man, and the spiritual connection between all individuals and God's truth.

For those who are Christian and of good conscience, if they are not acting in the best interest of their true relationships, they will accept correction where it is presented constructively for the purpose of mutual benefit. So even if their behavior or decisions were flawed, faith in Christ will allow these to be corrected.

However, if you come at them judgmentally for the purpose of scolding, discrediting or blaming them, you may receive an adverse reaction or rejection. This is not the proper way to rebuke a neighbor in Christ, so you will not likely succeed.

If you feel there is a transgression or offense, the Bible advises us to redress our neighbor personally in private to reconcile these issues and restore relations (Matthew 18:15-20); to confess faults and pray for one another that we may be healed (James 5:16); and to remove the beams from our own eyes so we may see clearly to help our neighbor to remove a splinter (also in Matthew).

If your neighbor is led by the same Christian faith and spirit, you can correct and reconcile the issues between you, including perceptions of relationships and proper behavior. If not, then it may be that one or both of you is not approaching the other in the spirit of Christ, truth or charity but is acting from self interest or motivations not conducive to reconciliation.

I find there are progressive stages for receiving and developing faith and understanding in Christ. You may have the spirit of Christ in you, but not fully realize the meaning and potential yet.
Similar to a chyrsalis where there are stages of preparation before the butterfly can fully emerge in its final mature state.

It is not always possible to know or to judge where a soul is in the spiritual process. Instead of appearances, I would "judge not, but judge righteous judgment." If you ask people how they perceive their thoughts, words, and actions -- in relation to those of others -- that tends to reveal how mature they are. Again, I find the most faithful and humble believers are neither daunted by differences nor do they judge others, but seek correction and reconciliation in loving ways that bring healing and happiness.

Answer 9

Yes,
I do not gossip, what people do is their business, if it offends me and its a sin in what they are doing, I will tell them, if I do not I am also a sinner, but not gossip about it, I watch my tongue
a small part of the body but the most powerfull. you can never retract what you say saying sorry is no good.its already said.
a word can make somone feel great but also it can destroy them.
all you have to do is read your bible to hear what God says about the other things you mention. no point in saying this is today, Gods word is the same today yesterday and forever. and if we adhere to his word the world would be a much better place.
