I am a Born Again Christ-follower

Soundoc

I am a born-again follower of the teachings of Christ Jesus, the Jesus Christ of the Holy Bible.

I can answer any question regarding my personal faith.

I got prepared for it by realizing that the following verse from the Holy Bible applies to me as well as to all other born-again followers of Christ Jesus.

Here is the verse:

1st Peter 3:15 but in your hearts reverence Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to make a defense to any one who calls you to account for the hope that is in you, yet do it with gentleness and reverence;

Glad to have you with us! It sounds like you'll bring an interesting perspective to the forums!

(Since this is your first post, did you want us to debate, or for me to move this to the 'introductions' section so that you can get a proper welcome from everyone?)

I say: I would like posters to ask me about my faith. If anybody desires to tell me that I am a fool for following the teachings of Christ Jesus, let me hear that too.

I enjoy the latter one better than the former one.

Well, if anyone does, let me know, since they'd be violating the behavior rules of the forum!

What is your favorite thing about your faith?

Does it bother you that no evidence of christs existence has been found?

What do you mean by a "christ-follower"? That is a very vague statement. There are many denominations of christianity.

Is your religion based on abstract ideas. Is it based off of facts?

Ya, welcome to the forum by the way.

I would never say that to you, would you say that to me for choosing a faith other than Christianity?

Why would anyone say you're a fool? RF accepts all religions, and we can all learn something from each other.

nice to meet you. You can go to the religious debate threads and religious discussion threads and read on questions and debate topics. Or you can fashion your own debate question in the debate threads. Since you didn't put a question in the Opening post there really isn't anything to debate in this thread.

Existence of Jesus Christ has been found. References to him (and his family) have been discovered in secular documents of that time. Why do we need anything beyond that? If historical references are good enough to prove the existence of other men of fame, that same standard should apply to Jesus.

It still does not prove Jesus was the son of God

What instigated you becoming born again?

Why choose Jesus over, say, Krishna?

Welcome to the forums. I love the passage you quoted. I am apologist myself. I appreciate your heartfelt testimony and faith in Christ. I too am a born again beleiver in Christ. I was born again when I was baptized at the age of only a few weeks.

Have a great day. Its good to have other Christians on this board.

God Bless you in Jesus through Mary,
Athanasius:)
