anonymous1: No, the topic is not about me believing in God.

We might have to define Christians though.

I would guess most Christians would accept The Bible, as defining Christians.

So, I will use this verse to begin.

Acts 11:26... And the disciples were called CHRISTIANS first in Antioch.

I'm thinking proof Christians exist would require us to to look for Jesus' disciples.
Does anybody disagree with that?







There are certain verses in The Bible that define a disciple.

The Bible also says, The disciples were called Christians.

If somebody does not qualify as a disciple of Jesus, according to Jesus' definition of a disciple, are they still Christians?

So here is another question to consider...

Can anybody prove Christians exist?


Yes you are right the there are no such thing Christianity, Jesus(pbuh) never called himself Christian, same like Moses(Pbuh) he never used the term Judaism to describe as his religion, similarly Hinduism isn’t found in Beda or other scared scriptures , previously Mohammedan was a common word used by westerner to describe followers of Mohammad (pbuh) , The truth is there is only one common philosophy that is common in all scriptures which is to worship one true god ,who has no image and submit your will(because human is one of the few creations of God who has free will to obey or disobey God) to him to acquire peace , in Arabic it is known as following Islam ,means Muslim.

No at all my friend, if Islam was spread by sword then why it becomes the fastest growing religion in world including USA and Europe, Muslims are bombed by high tech planes , they are tortured all over the world , who point sword to these people who understand the faith?

As it is mentioned before there is no compulsion in religion, but truth is clearly stands out from error.

Islam is destined to supersede all as it is the TRUTH, you cannot cover truth, no matter how you try .

HealthyLiving: It is for finding a partner.
This is part of the weeding out process.
Helps us to find what we are NOT looking for in a potential partner.

It is obvious from your answer that you and your anger would not be the best choice for any woman with half a brain.

Thanks for posting!


funny....for you, just those 4 sentences are good enough for you to draw some very concret "conclusion"(in biblical term, one would call it "judging" others) about that person! it is also very funny how you call another woman with half a brain just because she would care to like that manconfused

Sometimes even one sentence is enough to fully discern a person's character. It depends on whether they are trying to hide it or not.

As for women with half a brain, remember that a pessimist always sees the glass as half empty, but an optimist sees the glass as half full.

anonymous1: Are any Christians here going to heaven?


Well, if on judgement day, any of us Christians do make it to heaven by the grace of God and the blood of the Lamb, we'll be sure to write you and let you know we made it.

We know the address.

I agree that God's truth will supercede all.

But religion, be it Christian, Muslim, or whatever, involves a lot of dogma, and a lot of people, who are more interested in imposing their control over others than they are about God's truth.

I don't think Islam or Christianity, or any "religion" or theocratic régime will take over.

I think God's truth will take over.

Not the same thing at all.

calmheartseeks: ... Seems you can post anything for a thread topic, no matter how nonsensical, and people will respond to it, sometimes quite seriously!


Sometimes a nonsensical thread is just the springboard needed to launch a thought that was already looking for a way out into the sunlight.

The word "disciple" (greek "disciplina") refers to someone who follows a discipline, (a set of teachings).

Being a disciple of Christ isn't an exclusive club with a long list of hard and fast rules. It's a come-as-you-are, open-door, all-you-can-eat, free lunch.

The only real rules are to love God and to love others.
But, simple as that sounds, and as sincere as we may be in trying to follow them, we inevitably break those rules on a regular basis.

We have to forgive others because we all need forgiveness.

If a man works at a job, he has faith that the boss is going to pay him his wages.....but proof only comes on pay day.

If a man does not work because he believes the boss won't pay him......on pay day he is broke, goes without food and dies!

Pay day is close! I would rather work in vain than to not work and be broke with no food and die for sure.

Hope and faith is better than none and a sure dying!







The small flock do exist!
