I got this in an email and it sums up my Christianity. I love the Lord and I profess Jesus as my savior and this tells why.

WHEN I SAY..."I AM A CHRISTIAN"
( by Carol Wimmer)

When I say, "I am a Christian" I'm not shouting "I am saved"
I'm whispering "I get lost! that is why I chose this way."

When I say, "I am a Christian" I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble and need someone to be my guide.

When I say, "I am a Christian I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak And pray for strength to carry on.

When I say, "I am a Christian" I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed and cannot ever pay the debt.

When I say, "I am a Christian" I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are too visible but God believes I'm worth it.

When I say, "I am a Christian" I still feel the sting of pain
I have my share of heartaches which is why I seek His name.

When I say, "I am a Christian" I do not wish to judge.
I have no authority. I only know I'm loved

My story may be hard to believe as I can hardly believe it myself.

About 4 weeks ago my life did a complete turnaround and I believe God had intervened.

Since that time I have become a new child of Christ. Have forgiven and been forgiven my past. Got engaged ,quit drinking am more tolerable of other people. Became a youth group leader that my daughter now attends at the church I will be joining. I can't explain how it happened but I Thank God for it everyday.

I am by no means perfect but I will keep striving towards it.

Who are we to judge who is saved, who wants to be saved??? Sitting and reading the bible is fine. However living your everyday life to the best of your ability. To accept people who have different views is even better. Then you're living a good life.

People can go to church, read the bible, then not accept others because their life style is different. They are not doing the right thing. IMESHO!

Hello!Jesus is the same today,yesterday today an forever more.I am a living witness he can change your life.the reson why you dont think peoples living any achange life because your life is living in lust,not judge anyone.some peoples will say how can they tell me about living for Jesus an they not living right.When the holyghost comein change you. read 1 Samuel 16:7

IRISH_EYES_99 · July 19th, 2008, 08:27 PM

Jesus loves me because I accept all.

JUDGE NOT LEAST YE BE JUDGED!!! LOVE ONE ANOTHER AS I HAVE LOVED YOU!

The greatest commandment .. TO LOVE OTHERS AS YOU LOVE YOURSELF!!

See there is no condemnation in those, only what some decide to put in. To say I live in Lust .. Ooooops I lust after my hubby. Oh my.

Lust for Life, lust for chocolate, lot of lusting there.

I'm a Christian and as what I've learned from the church and from my parents, being gay (like me) is wrong

I've found the woman for me and I really love her but sometimes, my religion is making me feel guilty. I love her in the purest way possible and I don't know if God will accept it or not.
