Do you really believe in Jesus/Christianity or is it just something you think you SHOULD believe in because that's what you were taught?

I believe in Jesus because I can't do otherwise after studying His historicity, His claims, the prophecies about Him that were fulfilled in His life.

I wasn't taught about Jesus at all. I didn't find Him until I was 21. I feel more blessed than some who were raised Christians because I know how awful it felt without Him.

that's great :) i'm glad that you got to make the decision on your own. i think a lot of people stray away from it because it was forced upon them and then when they grow up they rebel against it.

I was brought up as a Christian yes, but that is not the only reason I believe in him. I feel him in my heart always! I always have. He is all around us every day! I love him with all of my heart and things that are happening in our world these days, in our schools, in our families and with terrism make me very sad.

I really do believe in Jusus and that He is the son of God.I look arouund and see evedence of him every where. He is not the auther of the evil we see in the world. Saten influances us and we have to live with the results of those choices. so we really can't blame god or Jesus for the bad things that happen to us or in the world

I was taken to church by my grandparents when I was a young girl. A Brethern church, and it simply was not for me. I'm twenty three now, and am still trying to find myself, and my religion. I've had many try to force me one way or another. My cousins tried to abduct me when I was younger and turn me into a mormon. I didn't like that religion, it's fine for people who feel it in their hearts... But it's not for me. Will I ever turn to Christianity? Perhaps, but at the moment, I'm not settled on anything.

thanks for the response. i went through a couple of fazes where i was trying to find my way too and studied every religion that looked good to me. then i realized they all had their flaws and so i kind of adopted my own way. :)

I was raised in a Christian home. Therefore, I was taught to believe in Jesus. However, when I matured and was able to really think for myself and make my own decisions, I came to believe in Jesus on my own because of what I have learned about Him, and also because I have a relationship with Him.

Firstly, forgive me God if I believe You just because I think I have to believe You. Since i'm 19 years old i started to realize who Jesus is in my life and i didn't deny that He lead my daily life. He always being my refuge. For me, He is the greater God of all that i had ever adore and I was so happy to born as a christian.

Do not take for granted the Christian faith as you are raised in a Christian home.Experience the power of Jesus Christ."Taste and see the Lord is good.".Pray and ask Jesus to help you experience him.Ask a Born non-believer who got converted to Christian faith.They will be able to tell more about the great power that made them to take such a big decision challenging their society with obstacles.

well, thanks for the comment! i dont' think i'm here for the money since i've only made $0.50 but its been a lot of fun :) hopefully money will come along with that. I'm not an athiest because i believe there is "something" but just not sure what. i guess that makes me agnostic.
