I pray that I would stand up for Christ, to the point of death if I have too- there are Christians in other countries that face this every day. I remember Cassie from Littleton Colorado, when the gunmen held a gun to her head and was asked if she believed in Jesus, she said yes, and she was shot- she was one of the high schoolers to died, in the attack on the high school. The Lord gave His life for me, I would pray if it ever came to down to it= I would die for Him. Because I know beyond a shadow of a doubt where I would be.

Actually, as a Christian... I will die for it. But, if you mean that the scenario came about where claiming I'm a Christian meant certain death... No one can truly say until they are in a situation like that. I would like to think I would, I certainly don't fear death as an end, my soul is secure in the knowledge that I will be in Heaven. So I certainly have more reason to sacrifice my life.

If I thought something was important enough to fight to the death about. Like the imposing of Sharia Law on a secular country, then I would like to believe, yes.

Christ gave his live for me and everyone else. For that reason I would lay down my life for him. For in him he will let me take it up again. Maybe not on this earth but with him. My hope is in Jesus Christ not in this world.
As for an Atheist where is their hope?

i would stand up for what i believe in, even if i was going to die i would never deny Christ, no matter how scared i am of the pain. after all, this is only earth, i would be with Christ when i die, i know that for a fact so why would i deny him to live longer when i could be free of the pains of this earth forever?

Yes if it was something that I felt was worth dying for like Freedom

That depends on what we're talking about. I believe that baseball should have a salary cap. But I'm not going to die for it. However, I would fight and die if necessary to keep my freedoms as guaranteed by the Bill of Rights.

Yes. I would have to rely on God for the strength in the moment, but I know He will provide it.

if it had to do with God, not just a silly opinion im fighting over, then yes.
In the bible, Jesus says
"But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven." - Mat. 10:33
Thats what Jesus said, and thats the way ill live my life!!

Would I choose death over denying that Jesus is the Christ, the Only begotten Son of the One True God? Yes, I would certainly choose death.
