I'm under 4 vows. This is for my particular sampradaya, not at all for Hinduism in general. They are:
1) vegetarianism
2) ahimsa (non-violence) in the home
3) tithing (10% of gross)
and 4) loyalty to the lineage, which means not seriously studying other sampradaya teachings, or other religions as a method for personal growth, while I'm in this one.
What about you?
The only thing that is required for me to do is have faith/believe in God, and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ of the Christian Bible.
(Progression of faith ; creates a person to be more Christ like) ~ which is having to with spiritual things, and living by the spirit given from God.)
There are promises though that are given to a believer that are found in the context of the Christian bible.
Here is a look at some of the promises of God from the holy bible.
The Promises of God provide freely through faith,
1 Relationship with God and the Lord Jesus Christ,
2 Resurrection from the dead,
3 Peace with God being justified by Faith
4 You have the right to an inheritance in partaking and sharing in God's kingdom now (on earth) and by faith you become a Child of God, and may progress in your walk of faith by the spirit and become a fully grown Son or Daughter of God.
5You are promised that God will never leave you or forsake you.
6You are promised that you can have a prayerful relationship with God who loves and cares about everything going on in your life, and desires for yuo to cast your worries and burdens on Him
7You are promised that freedom of the bondage of sin, and to have the ability to overcome temptations that may plague your life by going to God, who will show you a way out by and through praying.
8You are promised a renewed mind and a renewed heart by God,
9Also you are promised to have deliverance from darkness, and to be transferred into the Kingdom of God's Son - from darkness to light.
10 You are also forgiven of your sins, past/Present/Future; and you have freedom of Christ in you but you are not to use that to Sin willfully but instead live by the spirit -> For when someone loves God they will turn their will towards Him rather than their own self-will to serve themselves.
11 You are promised if you live by the spirit to have kindness, joy, peace, forgiveness, mercy, by and through faith.
People can believe this or not but always check the bible to make sure what is said here is true. Am about the truth, especially when it comes to Jesus Christ and the truth that he brings to the table.
Do not believe people can be perfect in the sense of making their flesh perfect. Though do believe people can be mature in the Christian faith by growing in knowledge of God and Jesus Christ `~ But it is a subjective topic, and objective truth when it comes to Christian Philosophy.
