Of course, it's possible. I'm a Christian, but have quite a few atheist friends, and have found them to be highly moral people. I personally feel that religion and ethics are two separate issues. I've met many moral Christians, but have also met moral Jews, Hindus, Muslim, Wiccans, and other non-Christians. So no, morality is not strictly relegated to Christianity.

All good and decent things come from God. Love, Temperance, Tolerance, patience, etc are all gifts of God. Therefore how 'good' a man is, is a reflection of how much this man allows God to move him to think and act in certain ways.

So to answer your question, no you cannot lead a moral life without God since God is the source of all that is good, and decent and moral.

That's why some can call themselves Christian and yet still lead immoral lives.

i think that sometimes it is possible. i am a christian, but i have friends who aren't but they live a moral life. But a moral life is important, but that's not gonna get u to heaven. Paul says that it is not by good works we are saved. Also the Bible says that if a man shall gain the whole world, but lose his soul, what is his profit? so leading a moral life is good, but a life w/out God is meaningless to me. i also think that a lot of christians live w/ good morals, but some don't. that is very sad.

Its possible to be a very moral person without God.
Its not possible though to obey the commandment to love the LORD with all your heart, soul, and mind without God.

When you say moral do you mean God's moral satndards
or human moral standards? we will never meet God's moral
standard's on our best day.

in case you meant the double destructive, or in case you probably did no longer, the respond is the comparable: it incredibly is achievable to steer a ethical existence regardless of if or no longer you think in God. Ethics and morals (the excellence is an tutorial one) are issues that could desire to do which contain your guy or woman self-know, your view of your self as an honorable person, and your ability to get alongside with others. those are important no rely who you're.

of course it is. but that doesn't mean that we meet the standard. we have all lied, or cheated, or stolen. so we are all in the same boat. just some choose to accept Christ to get out of the boat, while others would rather have nothing to do with him.
