    Why you have chosen your path?

    Ok, Just a few questions to maybe change my mind.

    Q: Why have you decided to become a Christian?
    what has moved you from a different religion or no religion to a Christian?
    Was there an event that changed you?

    Please, no stupid answers, would like this as civilized as possible.

    Re: Why you have chosen your path?

    I didn't "become" a Christian, I always knew it was the right path. Afterall, I don't want to burn in hell for all eternity. However, it is far more than just fear that keeps me a Christian. Jesus literally died for our sins- no other figure in any other religion did that.

      I became a Christian because I was born into it. I reconfirmed myself as one because I believe God's Word is truth.

        Reading the Bible cover-to-cover started me on my path.

              Of course! I went through a stage of plural relationships, opiates and whiskey. It was a dark and horrible time in my life. All that gratuitous and unnecessary sex with random and anonymous partners.

              One night I bedded three ladies at once just because I had some cocaine. It was truly a low point in my life and one I will never forget as I piously ponder God's love.

              Yours in the freedom that Christ grants you,

                I'm with Zechariah on this. I was a filthy depraved sinner not adverse to the allure and mystery of the occasional glory hole.

                But then I read through ALL of the Bible with an open mind. Try it. Only a fool could read it all and then not get down on his knees, repent and accept Jesus as his personal saviour.

                GLORY!!!

                I know God wouldn't let me believe in Him if He didn't exist.

                    Yes. Start with Gen. 1:1 and end with Rev. 22:21. If you don't come out a believer, then nothing will convince you.

                            Your response makes no sense.

                            You are being asked to introduce yourself. Please tell us how you came to know Jesus, what church you attend, what your favorite Bible verse is, and how your wife serves you her pie. Does she warm it up for you, for example?
