I'd say it's more about a belief in God than perceptions of Christianity from my personal experiences and talking to people. I don't even belong to a particular church or even a denomination. I don't even give my belief a title or a label as Christian or Catholic, or Baptist or Pentecostal. I think all these denominations hinder people anyway to a degree, spending so long trying to find a perfect denomination then a perfect church. And I personally don't think it matters. These demoninations and sectors of the church weren't around in Jesus's time anyway. For a religion so united Christianty can sometimes seem so divided with all of these different groups. So when I talk to people I'm speaking to them [if they ask] as a believer in God and not as a labelled Christian, and based on them hearing that then they spout their waffle. <BR/><BR/>If someone asks me am I a Christian, I never say yes. If they ask me what religion I belong to I say none, I just tell whoever I have a close personal relationship with God that we work on and I don't subscribe to a particular label. If I went to a place of worship yes it would be a church but ask me what kind and I wouldn't even know which one to walk into.<BR/><BR/>Hope I haven't gone off topic and on a tangent. It's late. Religion, faith etc is tricky and can be a long winded one. It's been discussed and dissected for centuries, and for once with a lil sleep deprivation struggling to make sense right now.Adminhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12198337156060712847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6574121262368500661.post-65513519913174429082009-03-05T23:33:00.000+00:002009-03-05T23:33:00.000+00:00Just came across this post and I was actually abou...Just came across this post and I was actually about to ask the same question as LoloBloggs. Are you sure people aren't reacting to their perception of modern christianity rather than your belief in God?<BR/><BR/>I believe in God, love God and attempt to live a life that is pleasing to him (her/ it whatever). Even though I don't subscribe to any particular religion I have loads of questions about beliefs associated with particular religions and dogma which could be perceived as anti-religious attacks.<BR/><BR/>The "why do bad things happen to good people" argument as evidence for God not existing is tired though. Anyone who uses it probably hasn't put too much thought into it. And if anyone tried to argue that point with me, they'd lose with a quickness.<BR/><BR/>Incidently I don't believe in the Devil either.

A truly heartfelt post.<BR/><BR/>One thing I will say is that you mention people having a problem with your belief in God, I wonder if its actually just a problem with modern day Christianity? All the other religions believe in God too, it's just that they're not as 'in your face' about it maybe...<BR/><BR/>And as for people questioning why bad things happen to good people? As you said yourself, everyone goes through it, each of us just has to find a personal way to find peace.LoloBloggshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01399007801792361957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6574121262368500661.post-9509057905835871602009-03-05T15:49:00.000+00:002009-03-05T15:49:00.000+00:00This post is so full of truth.

Indeed they are as dogged (or more so) about sharing their nonbelief in the existance of God (or any higher power) as say an evangelical is in sharing the gospel. Yet, you tell them you believe in Jesus and all of a sudden you are shoving your religion down their throats. That's funny to me, in that sad pitiful kind of way.Mr. Nofacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07164229381294354588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6574121262368500661.post-24795286174258806872009-03-05T15:07:00.000+00:002009-03-05T15:07:00.000+00:00I really liked this Nai!U are so right, dont stop ...I really liked this Nai!<BR/><BR/>U are so right, dont stop sharing Jesus with us, and dont stop loving Him in the way that suits you!!<BR/><BR/>I love how you commented on Jade's situation, and highlighted the positive, as tragic as it is, i think people are failing to recognise how many lives will be saved from this loss.
