Re: What Makes You A Different Christian? by Kenistry(m): 2:53pm On May 19, 2013
All christains are d same because we hv one Christ. So is either you r a christian (christ-like) or you r not. The problem we hv today as christains is dat most of us pay lip service, we lack Faith which is d most important . Wen challenges comes, we end up doing wht we preach against. Look at wht happens in schools, WAEC & NECO, all in d name of runs. It's a pity dat we r loosing it as christains. Our pastors only concentrate on giving deze days, pay tithes, sow 10,000 and expect 1mil frm God in the future, forgeting the Gospel of Christ. May God deliver us all

Mr knowitall.:

Let me tell you the true story of Jesus bro...Jesus and his crew were a fugitive of the law. Jesus was on the run because he was wanted for the crime of blasphemy(he called himself the son of God) which was a big big no no at the time. He was going around toting himself as the messiah..but the Jews coudlnt believe him because the torahs says before the true mesiah comes...God will show them some signs and certain events will take place...but those things didnt happen so he was lying....in an effort to escape prosecution...one of his guys turned him in....Jesus was tried in the court of law at the time and sentenced to death...like so many other people were.....the story of Jesus is nothing unusual he was a criminal who was caught, tried, and sentenced..case closed... go to Israel..they will tell you that Jesus was nothing more than a petty criminal.....if Adeboye dies today..some of his followers might say they saw him walking on the street after 5 days....which is expected from a devoted follower....[/b]

Much love because I think you are a human being like me but messed up by some satanic influence. You are sure used to covens, cultism, blood offering, mysticism, what have you. You have tasted them all. The above is their story. I wont condemn you for what you do not know but when you become trash for what you know, you WILL look for that which you do not know. Some DEEP talk, I pray you find it.

I was right when I said you are neither here nor there because you failed to answer the question asked; you chose to judge Christians instead far from the question. I still love you with the love of God. What we believe is our choice, no one is forced.

I feel God is always with me, my decision, my family and whatnot, every wrong choices I made are not meant to be and I don't regret it. He's very faithful to me.

eddy1234: WHAT MAKES ME A DIFFERENT CHRISTIAN IS MY UNDERSTANDING OF THE POWER OF THE HOLYSPIRIT AND THE LEVEL I OPERATE IN IT.DO YOU KNOW THERE IS A LEVEL YOU CAN GET WITH D HOLYSPIRIT AND U CAN DISAPPEAR IN A CROWD OF DANGER.ITS IN D BIBLE NOW,IT ALSO HAPEND TO JESUS.THE QUESTION IS,WHAT DEPTH OF KNOWLEDGE DO YOU HAVE WITH D HOLYSPIRIT.IF U TINK IT ENDS IN TONGUES NA SO E GO END FOR U.U CNT B MORE DAN U KNOW.

I so much impressed with your respond. Most christians today have neglected the Holy Spirit, imagine some said there in Christ for almost 3-5years without baptism and perfect relationship of the Holy ghost.
Re: What Makes You A Different Christian? by Originalsly: 3:50pm On May 19, 2013
@OP...isn't a Christian one who believes in Jesus and hmmm...tries to follow his teachings? You are either a Christian...or not. Anyone thinking they are a unique/special Christian is passing judgement on themselves. See me?..I am a unique Christian...you will never ever find me with less than 2 Bibles...see me?...I never ever miss Sunday service and always pay my full tithes plus extra...see me?...I sing the loudest and when speaking in tongues the spirit leave me last...see me?...I know I'm going to heaven and would be there in balcony of there is one...I am not like you other Christians.Amen.
Re: What Makes You A Different Christian? by ssii: 4:30pm On May 19, 2013
I am a christian, not because I was born one, but because over 20years ago as a teenager I invited Christ into my life. Ever since I have lived my life by the help and guidance of the Holy Spirit dwelling in me, and by the word of God. I have set the Lord always before me, delighting myself in Him and living my life to please. I know that I am a child of God, because I have a personal relationship with Him

Poor confused fellow! You said before that there are no true Christians and you turn around later to say that Jesus was a common criminal that was caught, judged and killed. How does that add up? No true followers of a criminal? What height of morality did you expect from those following a criminal?

Just to help you a little: we Christians already know that Jesus was crucified for claiming to be the Son of God. Being the Son of God is an acknowledgement of His deity. It is still the great controversy till today. People will readily accept Him as a great teacher and a pure moral force, but refuse His deity and deny Him worship. But there is salvation in no other name and one day all knees shall bow to Him and all tongues shall confess that He is Lord!

I am eagerly looking forward to that great day!

mysticgal: What makes you a different Christian.

first who is a christian?a christian is a person who acts like Christ or who is Christ like,you are not a Christian because of your name,background,church etc.you are a Christian because of Christ.

There are so many Christians out there but there is something that should stand you out in the crowd,can light be hidden?mine is my principles it's unbroken and it's based on the bible,it's a feature in me that make me different and people can testify to it,it practically defines me.please share yours.

I almost got critical abf the question, since U made clear who a Christian is.
However, the foundation of the Lord stands firm, the Lord knows those who are His. The difference btw Two Christians or Christlike persons are:
One is repturable
While, the other is carelessly at ease. (The 10virgins).

Mr knowitall.:


IM TELLING YOU...IF THERE IS REALLY A HEAVEN....ONLY A HANDFUL OF PEOPLE WILL GO..AND THESE ARE PEOPLE FROM LONG AGO....EVERY SINGLE CHRISTIAN ALIVE TODAY IS JUST PRETENDING...ESPECIALLY ON SUNDAYS....

Nawao and why are you saying this? undecided just because you live a pretencious life as a christian doesn't make others the same. Handful of people, yeah but not just from long ago. Stop seeing people as bad but doesn't mean you shouldn't careful at the same time lipsrsealed good people worthy of been saints still exist, bro.

Re: What Makes You A Different Christian? by Dlivingstone(m): 9:10am On May 20, 2013
I am here to tell You the reality about the Christian life. Do you know that you are not a christian because your parents were christians? Or because you go to church regularly and take part in church activities? A man becomes a christian the day he or she acknowledged the fact that Jesus christ died for his sins and rose again for his justification. Romans 10:9-10 you must believe in your heart and confess him as your saviour. That means,the day your heart and mouth agrees and testify that Jesus died for you is the day you become a christian. There's nothing that makes a christian different from another talking about their identity. The only difference is either one christian is a babe and the other an adult{matured} christian. How much you walk in God's will {His Word} for your life differentiate you from the other...God bless you.

on the contrary there is only one type of christian...The foolish one: carelessly at ease with his ignorance..one who worships a man that was beat up and killed by ordinary human beings...but yet still regarded as a God....There is only one type of christian the foolish one.
Re: What Makes You A Different Christian? by Realfiness(m): 7:52am On May 21, 2013
[color=#006600][/color] what makes me a Christian is the life of Christ that i live which makes me different and standing out in every situation and out of every body.

U really don't sound like any I guess!
