Why do you worship Jesus when you've never met him?

Question

Please friends, I am trying to understand Christianity. I love learning about other religons.

Answer 1

I used to worship my neighbor, Heather Lee until she got that restraining warrent. Christ, and celibacy, was my fall-back.

Answer 2

God is fair, and nobody will be in hell who doesn't deserve it, and those who ARE there (or WILL be there), will know exactly WHY they are there, and there will be no room to complain, because they will see very clearly the things they did to "earn" them the right to go there. Additional comment: If they have violated their own consciences, or done things to others that they wouldn't want to happen to them, then I'm fairly certain that this implies that they really did know God's Moral Law written on their hearts, and they broke the Law. This is why we need to go into ALL the world with the good news that Jesus forgives and sets us free from our sins, the power they have over us, along with their eternal consequences.

Answer 3

I have met him. Jesus changed my life. It is difficult to understand because it is beyond human understanding.
If you are really interested in Christianity, Start by reading the book of John in the New Testament of The Bible.
Jesus said that to see the 'kingdom of God', on Earth, and in heaven, you must be born again.
Very interesting reading. He didn't tell this to someone with no knowledge of religion, he told it to Nicodemus, a leader of the Jewish church, so you can be very religious, and still have no concept of who Jesus is.
The book of John is a good overview of The Bible.
The book of Matthew gives a good account of Jesus' teachings.
The book of Acts gives a good history of the early church.
The 'Pauline epistles', the writings of Paul, are letters to the early churches talking about their faithfulness and their short comings.
The book of Genesis is the foundation of the history of the world.
The entire Bible is a good resource for the condition of the human spirit, and how we can be redeemed.

Answer 4

I met him in a very real way when I prayed the prayer of Salvation in 1993. I speak with Him every day now in prayer. He speaks back through my Bible readings, "coincidences," preaching I hear, other people, and other ways.

As you grow in faith in Jesus, He reveals Himself more and more. Or maybe I learn to listen better.

Answer 5

Amanda:

I have met Him spiritually, and never a sweeter fragrance there was, every morning I awake He is with me

How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them! If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I awake, I am still with thee. - Psalm 139:17,18.

Answer 6

I know JESUS CHRIST personally. I speak to JESUS CHRIST. There's not much to boast about there. I"m not worthy of JESUS CHRIST. but i wish to keep JESUS in my LIFE always. Getting rid of sin is important. It isn't really possible to stand in front of THE LORD and to sin.
Whatever the LORD would have of me. I assure you the LORD is here with me, and therefore i can do all things through JESUS CHRIST.

-LOVE your nieghbor as yourself.
Amen.

I have never met Him personally. But I have met Him through the Bible. I know He lives within me.

Whenever I pray in my mind (No one can read my thoughts except God) my prayers are answered

whenever i am feeling down i can feel comfort in His words and in Him.

Jesus touches your heart and you can not help but love him and want to learn more about him.
