Are there levels of Christianity?

Question

Are the Christians that follow the Bible to a "T" better Christians than those of you that have other obligations in life?

Answer 1

No. it's not like Zelda

Answer 2

nope. We're all going to the same place, and God will reward us all. Following the bible to a T won't get you any closer to God, see Galatians 2:16. We go to heaven by believing in God, and just doing good deeds will put us under God's curse. (see Galatians 3:10)

Oh, and I didn't just pull this off of the top of my head. We did an entire unit on this at school this year, and I still happened to have the packet. Just to also let you know, I do believe everything I'm saying! and I do believe in and follow Jesus!!

Answer 3

Christian means follower of Christ. Each person has gifts and abilities that make them unique. You mature and grow as you learn more about God but no Christian is "better" or on a "higher level" than anyone else.

Answer 4

Yes; there are "levels of Christianity", as the apostle Paul testified, wherein he said,
"There are bodies telestial and bodies terrestrial and bodies celestial. There is the glory of the sun and the glory of the moon. As one star differeth in glory from another, so shall be the resurrection of the dead."
As Jesus said, "In my Father's house there are many mansions ... I go to prepare a place for you."

The aposle John wrote in Revelation that on Judgment Day "the books were opened, and I saw the dead great and small, and they were judged according to their acts, according to those things which were written, according to their works, whether they be good or whether they be evil."

Each of us will be judged precisely according to how we have lived, and more particularly, on exactly WHO we have become.

Answer 5

There is only one level. That level is those who are true followers of Christ, Jesus by believing on Him. Have you believed? Read John 3:16

P.S All of God's children are loved equally. All members of the Body Of Christ are equally important whether your the foot or the nose.

God Bless.

Answer 6

Yes in the view of mankind and faith there are levels, but in the eyes of God you are either in or out. If you have any faith you are in, I mean faith in a Spiritual sense to know God and believe. 1 Corinthians 3:15 If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.
Hebrews 6:1 Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God,
Jesus Christ was the perfect example of all things and you can see from his life that Peter James and John he kept very near to him when a situation required lots of faith, as in raising the dead a few times. Then there were 12 disciples as part of an outer circle of friends that had faith greater than others. Then outside that group was the 70 disciples that walked away from him when Jesus Christ said you must eat flesh and drink his blood to make it into heaven.John 6:54 Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.
But outside this circle of people were the Jewish people ( Israel) whom Jesus Christ always spoke in parables so that they might hear the word and not understand what it all means.Matthew 13:13 Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.
Still further away from Jesus was the Samaritians and lastly the Gentiles which had no idea about there was to come a man child of God at any time.
But Jesus Christ entrusted the Jews to Peter and the Gentiles to Paul, but in Jesus Christ we are all one and the same; Romans 2:10 But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile:
Romans 3:9 What then? are we better than they? No, in no wise: for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin;
1 Corinthians 12:13 For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.
Galatians 2:16 Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.
Galatians 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.
Colossians 3:11 Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all.
Romans 11:13 For I speak to you Gentiles, inasmuch as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, I magnify mine office:
1 Corinthians 15:9 For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.
Galatians 2:8 (For he that wrought effectually in Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision, the same was mighty in me toward the Gentiles:)
Here Paul testified that Peter was to the Jews as he calls them circumcision.

Answer 7

See Luke 6:46 and James 1:22!

And then.... tell US ALL?

Answer 8

I don't think there are any "levels" at all.

Probably Mother Teresa is in heaven right now, and more recently, Ruth Graham (Billy's wife.)

But so is the thief on the cross, who apparently became a Chrsitian about 3 minutes before he died.

Answer 9

There are no "levels" of Christianity. However, there is only ONE truth! The question you should have asked should have been "who is teaching the truth?".

GOD bless

Answer 10

Not in God's Eyes. The Scriptures Say:: God is NO RESPECTOR OF PERSONS! God Looks UPON THE Heart. (We should Praise Him For That, Huh?) (smile)

Answer 11

I got up to level 8 before I quit and became an atheist.
