Is there any reason, BESIDES THE BIBLE, for you being a christian?
Is it because your friends and family are christians?
IM NOT LOOKING FOR CIRCULAR LOGIC, SO DON'T SAY "THE BIBLE SAYS SO"

* Indoctrination from an early age
* emotional trauma
* attributing a random positive event to the christian god.

Because I believe in Jesus Christ. I believe He is God's only Son, He was crucified for our sins, and rose again on the 3rd day. I believe in all of His teachings.
I also believe that God loves us so much that He sent Jesus to die in our places. When Adam sinned, the world was cut off from God's presence. By giving up His life, Jesus reconciled us back to God.
I realize that God could have let us all die because we are sinners and don't deserve to be in His presence. But instead He came up with a flawless plan to save us from His judgement.
The reasons above are just a small snippet of why I have chosen to follow Jesus Christ and thus become a Christian.
Hope this helps!! Peace and Blessings :)

It is impossible for anyone to be a Christian without the Bible or teaching from the Bible!
My family and friends were NOT Christians. I was an atheist in college and sat down to read the Bible and prove it wrong.
It was then that God revealed Himself to me.
What more can I say...?

It would be so easy to not be a Christian. My family would be happy if I stayed close and never went to serve as a Pastor or a Missionary. I am a Christian because God lives in me, and through Him I can do anything. He has protected me and provided all of my needs. I don't expect you to understand if you are not living for Him.

I just agree with it. Im not the best christian but i believe in god and that he has a plan for everybody. I dont believe that the world happened by chance i think things work the way they do and are the way they are because of intelligent design. I dont really care what other people think they have their beliefs and i have mine.

No! they cant tell they are a true christian.
You can prove that they are a true christian by their lifestyle.
You will see how they live, how they speak and talk to other people and how they care about other people.

One day Jesus spoke to my heart and said "I love you".
I ask Him to forgive me,and to come into my heart.He has been the lover of my soul for 31 years.The Bible is now my love letter from God.
Man can tell me there is no God,but I know there is , He lives in my heart.<><

God has been extraordinarily good to me, and I'm grateful, so I declare my faithful allegiance to his son, Jesus Christ.
This has little to do with scripture.
It's simply a fact of life.
