"reaffirmation of my faith"
"Are you a christian?"
"i'm not sure. How do you define a christian?"
"umm... do you think yourself to be a christian?"
"i'm a believer. But not a church-goer"
"hmm.. ok.. thanks.."
Going to amy's church was totally entertaining. You get a whole sanctuary(that's how they call themselves) of them screaming and singing worship songs, and you, just staring in disbelief.
My status on religion stands that i am a believer that there is Christ and there is God. But i don't believe in going to church to worship him. Its a relationship with God. He understands what i mean. If everyone's relationship was through the church, the meaning is lost. Sincerity counts.
Do you believe in Christianity so as not to go to Hell? So that your sins will be redeemed by Jesus who died on the cross for you? I don't get the point. The church preaches that if you believe, you are saved. Salvation.
Salvation? Take salvation away from God and i will still believe in him. because he's someone i will go to when all others fail. It is a sort of contingency plan for me because if no one cares, i know He will. It is not for salavation. No. Never.
So what if he died on the cross? Criminals were crucified too. Who judged the criminals? The judges. The people. Who judged Jesus Christ? The people. He who died on the cross was mocked at. For he was born to die?
Really. One should question why one believes.
i did.
