Christian isn't much of a definition. There are many people who call themselves Christian, from Catholics to Mormons. Some Christians don't consider all who call themselves Christian to be so.
If I said I was Pagan, that's only a category, it tells you nothing of what I believe. All that Christian says is that you somehow believe Christ existed. Mormons believe that those who live right can someday become Gods. They believe that there are many gods, but worship only one. Many Unitarian-Universalists believe that everyone will be saved, and discount the Trinity, but these too call themselves Christian.
Go out on a limb... Catholic, Calvanist, Mormon ... the broad label of Christian tells little about what you believe.
I'm a Wiccan (mostly), but even that's a category. I have my own set of beliefs and my own creed. I believe that there is one ultimate deity who has been shown or worshiped under many names. Each of these is merely an aspect of that higher being. We each look for what we want, and humanity gives it a name in order to make it tangible.
Like a blind child will develop an image of what his mother or father "looks like", as a two children will have different memories of their parents, and will describe a slightly different person, so we do with deity.
That's as close as I can describe my religion in a few short words.

I'm non-denominational Christian. I belive in all the Bible says, that no other books are to be added, and the necessity of faith as well as immersion baptism for Salvation through Christ. Doing what the first century christians would have done and following only the word of God.
Great is the Lord, and His love endures forever.
God bless America!

I really dislike placing myself in any classified religion. If I had to, I would say that I am a Christian. But all in all, I am a believer of Jesus Christ, and read the Bible, so I guess that makes me a Christian. I prefer the turn Jesus Freak!

Neo-Druid, raised Christian but joined the Butterfly Tradition of Druidry in 1990 and found MY path and a greater understanding of many other ones.
Also, when I feel like dabbling, I am an occasional Discordian, Thelemite, Sun-worshiper, Animist, Polytheist, Chaote, and General Occultist.
Not a Wiccan, but essentially neo-Pagan.
I like the answers to this one, fun question.

Don't know yet, I'm still exploring. Although I have ruled some religions out, such as Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Satanism, and Atheism. I'm not Agnostic either, because I do believe that there is a higher power. I sometimes call myself a Deist for lack of a better word, and I also find Gnosticism very fascinating.

I am a believer in Jesus Christ as the One True God and His
Father and the Holy Spirit. So, this makes me a Christian
sound in the faith! There is no other way to eternal life.

I must say that this is a good question for me.... I was raised Baptist while living with my auntie.... then Christian while living with my grandmother.... then when my mother go me back she was married to a mormon.
I would have to say that I feel more speritial just reading the bible, with no lable to it other than "The Bible". I dont feel it to be necessary to go to church every sunday, I feel it to be necessary to have god in my heart everyday....I pray the heavenly father still which was from the mormon church but its what I feel. I feel that the things that you do in life come back to you...if you do bad things bad things come back to you...if you do good, good comes to you.
I honestly feel that we are currently on that place people refer to as "Hell" and we have to earn our way into the heavenly kingdom.
I hear people say that God is forgiving and I belive this but, also belive that if you know what your doing is wrong and you do it anyways there is not forgiveness for you.
I honestly wish I accepted emails on this so you could let me know your thoughts on my sperituality...... I am confused but confident that I will see my heavenly father one day..... I look forward to this days as children look forward to christmas, I dont know why that is...
