Isn't most Christianity of today corrupt?

Question

look at it's history:
Jews and Christians persecuted by Rome
Constantine legalizes Christianity
sunday worship introcuced and 7th day Sabbath abandoned
Bibles forbidden for members to read

The more common form of Christianity may be the most least bible based chrisitanity you've ever seen and they do bad things.

Is there a pure remenent of people sprinkled in the christian population that are pure?

my point exaclty

Answer 1

Christianity has always been corrupt. We claim to be Christians (followers of Jesus Christ) but we follow Moses, and the 10 Commandments.

Christians are not even aware that Jesus gave us 75 Commandments in the New Testament.

The Old Testament is valid because of the 10 Commandments and the Laws of Moses.

Does this mean that Jesus died on the Cross for the Old Testament or for the 10 Commandment, and for the Laws of Moses? NO!!!!

Jesus said; eat of this for this is my body, the flesh of Jesus was the Word of God, for the word was made flesh and dwelt among us. The Bread of God, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven.
Jesus said; drink for this is my blood, of the NEW TESTAMENT which is shed for many, for the remittance of sin.

For the Laws were given by Moses, but truth and grace came by Jesus Christ.

All those that came before me are thieves and robbers.

The least in heaven is greater then John the Baptist, John the Baptist was the greatest prophet Isaiah.

Answer 2

Are you saying that the Christianity recognized today is not the same as the Christianity practised by early Christians, and has thus somehow become 'corrupted'?

Perhaps some of the trappings and day-to-day worship activities have changed, but I don't think there's much evidence to show that the overall _message_ of Christianity has changed appreciably since about the time of Paul's ministry, maybe even Jesus' if you're generous.

If you're saying that most Christians today are 'corrupt' in the sense of legal and moral corruption, I would definitely have to say that MOST of them definitely are not corrupt. There might be some bad apples (and unfortunately they get the most press), but most Christians are pretty normal, nice, law-abiding folks.

Answer 3

Sorry to say but this bibles forbidden for members to read is new to me but I don't keep up with the news these days. Guess something may interest me at a later time though. Your question - NO. Christianity can not be corrupted and those that take texts from the bible and misquote them so that their fellow man/women are lead to the wrong path are by far the worst of all people theirs is the path to eternal damnation, If you lead one of my children down the wrong path than you to shall receive the same punishment.

Answer 4

What you found out have been accusations, and not info. Calling Christian observances "pagan' merely serves to "poison the properly". Romans 14 has Paul conserving that Christians are unfastened to esteem an afternoon, or no longer esteem an afternoon. If that day is widely known by way of fact the start of Christ -- an substantial experience -- yet we don't be attentive to the definitely day, that does no longer propose we can not word the day in accordance to our Christian liberty. the comparable with Christ's resurrection. as far by way of fact the sabbath day being replaced to Sunday, this could be a lie perpetrated by ability of sabbatarians. The sabbath replaced right into a condition and requirement interior the confines of the old covenant. while that covenant ended, so too ended the circumstances of that covenant. the hot covenant has no requirement to observe days like the sabbath. Sunday replaced into in no way primary as an afternoon of relax yet incredibly company worship. by ability of saying a "substitute of day" persons are tricked into questioning they ought to save the old covenant sabbath, opposite to New testomony theology. be conscious incredibly Acts 15. .

Answer 5

Are those that claim Christ really faith full. Judge their actions, actions speak louder than any words.

If the actions don't line up to the claims of the faith then you can bet they are Christian in name only, but not real.

Are you a good person? What a question, most of us believe that we are good people because we can look around and find someone that is far worse than we are. We can always point to the things that we think make us a good person.

But how good are we really? Dare we take this test and look at ourselves and see if we really are good? Hmmm.

If you are willing try this and see just how good a person you are.

The Good Person Test.

How will you do? Pass or fail?


Have you ever told a lie?
Doesn't matter how big or small, just a lie.
What does that make you? Before answering think about this, if I told you a lie what would you call me? A liar?

Have you ever stolen anything? Cost doesn't matter, a piece of gum, failed to give back an ink pen that you borrowed, anything.
What does that make you?

Jesus said, "You know the saying of old, you shall not commit adultery but I say that if look at someone to lust after them you have committed adultery in your heart.
Have you ever lusted?

Jesus said that hate is equal to murder.
Have you ever hated anyone?

See one day we all are going to stand before a Holy God on Judgment Day and he is going to judge us based on His Holy Law, the Ten Commandments. These are just 4 of them and how did you do? Guilty? I have broken all of these and more, what about you? How well will you do on Judgment Day?

If we break just one point of God's Law we are guilty of breaking all the law and Gods Wrath abides upon us all. Based on God's Law we are all guilty and all are deserving of punishment. But there is an out for us.

Jesus paid the price for each one of us, took on himself God's Wrath so we wouldn't have to face it on our own. Jesus was beaten, battered, bleed and died so we wouldn't have to face God's Wrath. He rose again so that we would life in his presence. Our crimes, His payment.

The real question is where will you stand on Judgment Day. Pay yourself or have it paid for you. Think about it.

On judgment day without Christ you will stand alone and have to face wrath.

End the end do you want to be saved from the wrath to come

Answer 6

the 7th day sabbath is not abdnoned...God does not hold against us the fact that sometimes....u may have to go make a lil extra money to hold ur family toegther. for example...my dad helpa friend add on an attachment to his house almost every saturday...but its because he gets paid and he needs that money...because he is getting divorced....and me and my sister are living with him....and he has to pay extra now....for like at school and things...he has to get off at work early to pick us up...give hims less hours...or when he doesnt get off early he has to afterschoolcare. see so that money he makes on saturdays helps keep the family together. praying to dead saints is a ctaholic tradition..i go to a catholic school ad when we pray to the saints...i fold my hands and just sit there because God says not to pray to dead people in the Bible....because that is like witchcraft, thinking u can get contact with the dead. what members are u talking? i dont believe anyone is forbidden to read the Bible unless it is a law of thir own country...but that shouldnt stop them.... Jesus says something about that in the Bible...i dont remeber the EXACT verse...but i think thisbis what He said, " anyone who wishes to save his life, will lose it." meaning that if someone brought a gun to ur head and asked if u were a Christian and denied it....u will lose ur life in Christ. the rest of the verse says " but whoever loses his life for my sake will save it. " so if u lose ur life for reading the Bible...there is a spot for u in Heaven. by jew and Christians being persecuted in rome....how do that make US corrupted? we were the ones persecuted...i guess. i cant remember why Christians worship on sunday...there is a reason..but i dont really remember. the pope is for the catholics.... if he was arrested...then he was arrested....catholic people act like the pope is their life..they act like if they had no pope they would be lost...thats why Jesus is here....to show u the way! they need someone visual to follow...they just can rely on the faith that the Holyspirit gives them the ability to have. i looked up what an inquistive is...well i looked in the thesaurus and it only had inquistives...and it said something about people being curious...analytical...but i dont know what inquistions u talk of...or really what they are. sorry i dont have an answer for that one.




God bless u. =]

Answer 7

For Christianity to have become corrupted, you have to assume that it was once "pure."

I doubt the actual historical "Jesus" would ever have approved of any of the religions founded in his name. The salient feature of practically all Christian brands is belief in Jesus as the divine-incarnate "Son of God," a concept so patently pagan that no first century Jew would've touched it with a ten foot rod of almond.

Answer 8

Yeah, I would have to agree with you......Christianity has lost it's fire.......has gotten weak. In many places, literally it's the best religion that money can buy. It's a shame.........

Answer 9

I have to agree but not with the examples you gave. I think its more the secularization and commerciaization of the religion that caused the corruption.

Answer 10

Christianity.. NO -- People...YES
