What Religion Are You?

Question

I've always been curious about the differences in what people believe. Please tell me your religion and what you believe. E.g. I am Catholic. I believe in the Holy Trinity and that Jesus is both human and divine. Every Sunday during the Eucharist I drink Jesus' body and blood in the form of bread and wine. Thanks!

Answer 1

Christian

Answer 2

I'm Roman Catholic..........I dont go so much often to the church. I believe in Jesus, and in spite of I go to the mass sometimes, I think that Jesus, God or anyway you name them, are with us all the time wherever we can be. We wont be better catholics for going to mass every sundays. We are good christians following Jesus teachings, not showing another pple that we are in mass.
Thanks

EDIT..........
Why did you ask that question if when one replied and you dont like the reply you give thumb down???? I thought you have said that you were curious, but liked the truth ..

Thank you anyways.

Answer 3

Catholic

Answer 4

Roman Catholic, though I believe I would not be liked by the authorities of our Church, since I hold some very different views of society, though not of the faith itself.

And I applaud everyone for being calm and honest here. We need more honest and tolerant conversation, not rants about immorality or Pagans or atheists or Christians.

Answer 5

I'm a Asatruar( Germanic Pagan, Heathen)

I have found the gods & goddesses of my ancestors to be the right path for me.
I know the followers of the desert god of the Middle East will give me a thumbs down, but then I don't care what the say or do.

Answer 6

What a lovely question.

I myself am Catholic. I would echo everything you said.

I went down the list and gave everyone thumbs up for being honest about what they are and what they believe in - UNLESS they added snarky comments.

Answer 7

I am associated with Jehovah's Witnesses, and we believe that Jehovah is God's name; that Jesus Christ is God's son who gave his human life for our sins; that true followers of Jesus would be known for their love for one another; that when we die, we are simply dead, that there is no 'spirit' that survives death; that we are to stay as far apart from the worlds way of doing things as we can, and that we were instructed to go door to door with our message about Jehovah and His son, Jesus.
These are just a few of the things that I believe... If you have any questions, you might contact your local Kingdom Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses, and they will be happy to answer your questions or concerns.

Answer 8

i am athiest, i don't believe there is a god, or a higher power that is ultimitly the reason for our exsistence. i have other theorys that sound more plausable than any other religion. although i just wan't to point out (due to my catholic upbringing), all forms of religion teach very good ethics, and upbringings and i feel that we should conduct ourselves in these ways. i just don't by the whole divinity thing. enjoy.

Answer 9

I am of a Pagan faith. Pagan is an umbrella term for many different traditions. I don't fall into any particular tradition.
I revere (notice I didn't say worship) all of Nature. I hold Mother Earth Sacred. And do what I can to attune myself to the natural cycles of Nature. I honor all of Mother Nature's creatures and respect their right to exist, including humans as flawed as we are.

Answer 10

I am non donominational christian but I follow closer to the belief of a pentecostal christian, although I have never spoken in tongues.
Below you will find the beliefs of my church:

1. The Bible is the Inspired Word of God.
The Scriptures, both the Old and New Testaments, are verbally inspired of God and are the revelation of God to man, the infallible, authoritative rule of faith and conduct (2 Tim. 3:15-17; 1 Thess. 2:13; 2 Peter 1:21 ).

2. The One True God
The one true God has revealed Himself as the eternally self-existent "I AM," the Creator of heaven and earth, and the Redeemer of mankind. He has further revealed Himself as embodying the principles of relationship and association as Father, Son, and Holy Ghost (Trinity). (Deut. 6:4; Isa. 43:10-11; Matt. 28:19; Luke 3:22 ).


3. The Deity of the Lord Jesus Christ
The Lord Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God. The scriptures declare:

a) His virgin birth (Matt. 1:23; Luke 1:31-35 ).
b) His sinless life (Heb. 7:26; 1 Peter 2:22 ).
c) His miracles (Acts 2:22; Acts 10:38 ).
d) His substitutionary work on the cross (1 Cor. 15:3; 2 Cor. 5:21 ).
e) His bodily resurrection from the dead (Matt. 28:6; Luke 24:39; 1 Cor. 15:4 ).
f) His exaltation to the right hand of God (Acts 1:9-11; Acts 2:33; Phil. 2:9-11; Heb. 1:3 ).


4. The Fall of Man and His only hope for salvation is found in the Savior, Jesus Christ
Man's only hope of redemption is through the shed blood of Jesus Christ the Son of God.

Salvation is received through repentance toward God and faith toward the Lord Jesus Christ. By the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Ghost, being justified by grace through faith, man becomes an heir of God, according to the hope of eternal life (Luke 24:47; John 3:3; Rom. 10:13-15; Eph. 2:8; Titus 2:11; Titus 3:5-7 ).


5. The Present Day Ministry Of The Holy Spirit.
The Holy Spirit enables believers to achieve supernatural results through His gifts. Without the Holy Spirit, no person could live for Christ successfully. We believe in the baptism in the Holy Spirit and Gifts of the Holy Spirit, including divine healing, operating through believers in the present day. (Acts 2:4; Rom. 12:1-2; 1 Thess. 5:23; Heb. 13:12; Rom. 6:1-13; Rom. 8:1-13; Gal. 2:20; Phil. 2:12-13; 1 Peter 1:5 ).


6. The Church and Its Mission
The Church is the Body of Christ, the habitation of God through the Spirit, with divine appointments for the fulfillment of her great commission. Each believer, born of the Spirit, is an integral part of the Church. (Eph. 1:22-23; Eph. 2:22; Heb. 12:23 ).


7. The Return Of The Lord Jesus Christ And The Final Judgment.
Christ will come for his Church first (I Thess. 4:17) then come to set up His millennial kingdom. There will be a final judgment for both the living and the dead, a new heaven and a new earth. (Rom. 8:23; Titus 2:13; 1 Cor. 15:51-52; Zech. 14:5; Matt. 24:27-30; Rev. 1:7; Rev. 19:11-14; Rev. 20:1-6; Ezek. 37:21-22; Zeph. 3:19-20; Rom. 11:26-27; Matt. 25:46; Mark 9:43-48; Rev. 19:20; Rev. 20:11-15; Rev. 21:8; 2 Peter 3:13 )

Here is more on the pentecostal movement:

The Pentecostal movement within Evangelical Christianity places special emphasis on the direct personal experience of God through the baptism of the Holy Spirit, as shown in the Biblical account of the Day of Pentecost. Pentecostalism is similar to the Charismatic movement, but developed earlier and separated from the mainstream church. Charismatic Christians, at least in the early days of the movement, tended to remain in their respective denominations.
One of the defining marks of Pentecostals is emotionalism in worship and prayer. They are known for raising their hands while singing and praying. They tend to be very vocal and expressive in their prayers, with cries of "Yes, Lord!," "Thank you, Jesus!", "Hallelujah!" and other spontaneous expressions of praise

Answer 11

Christian. I also believe Jesus gave his live for my sin when we take cominion which is generaly once a month, I see the bread and wine as symbolic of his body and blood.
