The peace and comfort I feel. If something bad happens to me instead of loosing control like I did before I was saved, I can now feel at peace knowing that God will handle it for me, and it will work together for good. I do not get as mad as easily because God has put love in my heart for everyone. I do not have to fit in with the crowd anymore, because I know that just as Jesus was hated, I will be also. But God has blessed me with Christian friends. God keeps his angels to watch over me, and I am safe. I am also at peace knowing if I layed down tonight and didn't wake up, I would arise in the arms of Jesus.

The best thing about being a Christian is that I know my purpose in life.

Now having to worry about being perfect enough to please God, and therefore no worries about where I'm going after I leave here.
A2Z, you sound like a Muslim, so I'll explain it to you. Try to keep up. Although Jesus' desciples realized before His death who He was, it wasn't until after His resurrection that it began to sink in to many others. And the name Christian wasn't even invented until much later than that. And since the blood of Jesus Christ releases us from needing to attone for our sins under the Law, naturally Paul was teaching from a little different perspective. There's a difference between teaching the Law of Moses and teaching about the One who laid down the Law of Moses.
I think you need to stick to the Koran.

Bessie,
The part I love the most about being a christian is: I feel utterly protected and included. God makes me feel special , I'm included in the in crowd. Jesus makes me feel connected like I have satellite guidance. When i feel lost he makes a way for me. When I'm lonely he listens to me.
When someone tries to harm or insult me they are really messing with God and he is HUGE. I feel sorry for those people, because he will deal with it and always .........he hears my cries for help.
My favorite scripture is Romans 11:33-36

Knowing that God loves me, even when I am a jerk. A true friend is someone who knows you well, and likes you anyhow. Christianity teaches forgiveness , compassion, and hope. I am a much better person now than I was years ago.

To believe in Jesus and be obedient to God.
DO THE WILL OF GOD
You need to find a home church, be obedient, follow his word, be baptized with the holy spirit, show your self approved and do the will of God (Mark 16: 15 - 18)

Followers of Paul, instead of following Jesus (PBUH)
The True Founder of Christianity
Did Jesus or his Apostles follow a religion called Christianity? Who were the first 'Christians' ? Who founded Christianity and do the teachings of Christianity conform to the teachings of Jesus?
The teachings of Paul, the true founder of Christianity, cannot be found anywhere in the teachings of Jesus or in those of prophets before him.

The comfort of knowing that death is not the end. If someone were to come up to me tonight with a gun and say "renounce Christ or die," I could safely say "shoot me," secure in the knowledge that I have eternal life. Being killed means nothing to me because of Christ.
