why do Bible-fundamentalists say they are the real Christians when they are just a product of Protestantism?

Question

, are you saying you do have half a brain? no wonder you, and people like you, can't grasp so much depth in other practice other than your own. you don't like repetitious prayers? then don't pray "The Our Father" then, since that too is repetious.

geessewereabove, wherever you got that, I must say it's all BS.

Answer 1

Your guess is as good as mine.

Answer 2

Inquiress,

It doesn't matter which "religion" you are brought up in, it's a personal matter between you and God whether you have trusted in His Son the Lord Jesus Christ that makes you a Christian.

A Christian is one who has placed faith and trust in the finished work of Christ at Calvary. His death (for the sin of the world), His burial (showing His humanity) and His resurrection (showing His diety)

You first must admit that you are a sinner (one who misses the mark of God's perfection) in need of God's salvation.

Romans 3:23 For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.

Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

This is the Gospel by which you are saved.
I Corinthians 15:3, 4 For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 4 and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures,

Romans 10:9, 10 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

Most religions teach a system of works for salvation ... Christianity is a belief system because Christ has already done all the work. We need simply "believe."

Ephesians 2:8, 9 For by grace (God's unmerited favor) you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, 9 not of works lest anyone should boast.

I hope this sheds some light on your question and if you don't "know" the Lord as your personal Savior that you will today. We're not guaranteed a tomorrow. And this is the THE most important decision you will ever make.

It boils down to whether you believe what God teaches in the Bible or want to believe you can do it on your own. The first takes you to heaven when you die and the latter will send you to hell .. the lake of fire that never goes out. It's your choice ... what's it going to be?

Answer 3

Yeah. I wonder about that. I mean, especially the Roman Catholics, who adopted so many pagan rituals and doctrines. Forbidding marriage after all! It sounds like what Paul warned of in 1 Timothy 4, deceiving spirits and all! Whooo! I wouldn't like those kinds of devil inspired traditions in my church or laid to the charge of what Jesus said not to do:
Matthew 6:7
But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.

I mean, how much clearer does anyone with half a brain need?!

Answer 4

You are giving me a Catholic impression. Why dose the Catholic church lie to you and tell you that it is 2000 years old, when it is only 1,700 years old?
Jesus says in Matthew 5:17-20 that he was not here to start a new religion; but to fix the Jewish one. Jesus was a Rabbi. He also ordered us to remember the 306 Commandments that God gave to Moses. The Catholic church only teaches nine of them. The second Commandments says God is a very jealous God and we are to pray to no one but GOD... Who are you praying too?
The Bible-fundamentalists are probably either Jewish/Christians or just study for the whole truth. Not bits and pieces.

Answer 5

What is a "real " Christian, b/c all of Christianity is false and based on beliefs that were already in place well before Christianity came along.

Answer 6

Martin Luther's earliest New Testament translations include many illustrations picturing the "Whore of Babylon" as the Roman Catholic Church. Describing this widely understood interpretation, Roland Bainton tells us: "Fallen Babylon is plainly Rome" (Here I Stand, p. 258).
Countless Protestant books, pamphlets, and tracts make that same identification today. They brand the Roman Catholic Church as the "great Whore" of Revelation 17.
But, it must be admitted, most Protestant denominational writers have stopped making this identification. After publishing those editions of the Bible, and pamphlets and tracts, they suddenly came to the embarrassing realization that they were telling on themselves!
For the corrupt Roman "mother" church has given birth to harlot daughters! If the clear, consistent principles of scriptural identification are to be honestly applied, the Protestant churches are "harlot daughters" of a paganized, apostate Rome!
They came out of her in protest. But, as we have clearly seen, they retained most of her pagan doctrines and concepts. They are still following Rome's example of mixing in the politics and wars of this world. And we have seen abundant Protestant testimony that they recognize she is their "mother" church!
Protestant historian Rufus Jones wrote that Luther "started out to inaugurate a Church composed of those who had faith and spiritual vision, and who revealed an ability and power to proclaim the Word of God. But, in reality, he left in full operation a large relic of the ancient creeds, an extensive 'rump' of superstitions, traditions and magic, and a heavy inheritance of external authority" (The Church's Debt to Heretics, p. 228).
In other words, the Protestants still retain many pagan doctrines and traditions inherited from Rome. Some of these false traditions involve the pagan holidays that the early Catholics adopted and gave Christian-sounding names. The Protestant churches stand clearly identified by God Almighty as the "harlot daughters" of apostate Rome!
Speaking of this entire Babylonish system, God commands: "Come out of her, my people, lest you share in her sins, and lest you receive of her plagues" (Revelation 18:4).
