Should you be a Christian

Answer 1

OpinionThat is your choice as an individual. Many do choose to be Christians, either because of family tradition, peer pressure or because they really do see evidence of God in nature. In summary, you should be a Christian if you feel that this belief is right for you. OpinionChristianity is a Religion. There is only one valid reason for belonging to any religion - the cultural and religious traditions of that religion are helping you to grow "In Spirit and in Truth" .

If you feel that calling yourself a "Christian" and hanging out with other "Christians" is helping you grow in Spirit, go for it. If you get to the point that you feel you are not growing, or even worse, the religious environment is keeping you from growing, look elsewhere. Spirit will provide.

OpinionYou do not have to be Christian and the fact that people are pushing their religion on this question is completely rude. Not everyone is Christian and not everyone has to be. Believe in what you want to, you COULD be Christian, but you could be Muslim, Jewish, Atheist, Hellenistic, etc. Choose what YOU want to be.

Answer 2

Answer ADeciding whether you agree with the Christian beliefs is a first step, but there are many benefits to being a Christian with most of them being how you feel about yourself and how you see life in general:

1. You'll find peace if you become a Christian because God gives you that as part of the relationship that you have with Jesus.

2. You'll find success because you will focus on what is really important about being successful at your job: not money and power, but self-fullment, love, and serving others self-lessly.

3. You'll find contentment in your life meaning that you'll feel secure, confident, and grateful for what you have even when things are not going the best with your job, money, family, health, and social life. God gives us contentment when we believe in Jesus Christ and following his philosophy how to live our lives.

These are just three BIG ideas. You might be able to gain these superlatives through other means, but being a Christian guarantees that people will receive these blessings.

Answer BThe question is misleading. It could be also why should you become a Muslim? or Why should you become a Jew? why should you become ...?

It is your own belief and choice. You should read in all religions and understand them objectively and subjectively. To ask yourself about the authenticity of the information you get and the logistics behind the teachings? Then make your free will choice. This choice you will be responsible of in front of God on the Resurrection Day where you be judged either to go to the Paradise or to be pushed in Hell fire.

Answer 3

Do whatever you believe in. Dont give into pressure. If you parents or anyone else are pushing their religion on you and you want it to stop tell them to. Say Im not stop i dont want you to push your religion on me. You can decide to be whatever you want, religious or not.

Answer 4

A:If you could find out if God is real and that Jesus is his son, you would have a compelling reason to follow Jesus. In the absence of any proof of these things, it is your choice.

Answer:

The simple, broad Christian reply is this:

John 14:6New King James Version (NKJV)

6 Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.

For many others, this first should occur, as Salvation is an individual search and many do not find it in this lifetime - yet there is still hope afterwards per the Scripture:

Matthew 7:7New King James Version (NKJV) Keep Asking, Seeking, Knocking7 "Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.

Answer 5

A:

You should marry a Christian if that is the person you love. You should marry a non-Christian if that is the person you love. Choosing a marriage partner purely on the basis of religion can mean an unhappy marriage with little in common other than professed religious beliefs.

Answer 6

Most Christians will say that the benefit of becoming a Christian is that a Christian can go to heaven, while non-Christians can not. This could be a benefit as long as heaven is actually real, an unproven assumption.

Nenson Mandela, in his autobiography identified a number of benefits for blacks in becoming a Christian. This included access to education and the acceptance that enables one to succeed in work and life. However, the days are long gone when success in Western society depended on demonstrating Christian faith. It is now possible to be a successful singer, actor, scientist or even Prime Minister without claiming to be a Christian. I can see no real benefit in being a Christian.

Answer 7

A:

Most people do not consciously choose to be Christians, but consider themselves to be Christians because that was the religion of their parents.

.

People choose to become Christians for various reasons, including that they believe God to be real and Jesus to be the source of 'salvation'. Nelson Mandela says in his autobiography that he became a Christian because, as a black African, this was his only opportunity to become properly educated.

Answer 8

Being a Christian is really another way of being described as Christ-like. The goal in being Christian is to learn more about God and His Son Jesus Christ and by enablement of God through the Holy Spirit, to become more Christ-like. Being a Christian and not being or desiring to be Christ-like is attitude of hypocrisy.
