What does it take to be a true Christian? Does it only take to read the bible and go to church?

Am I a going to distil my thoughts about the topic into this post. Before though, I would like to suggest faith as the sinew of Christianism.

 

After first getting involved seriously into Christianity last November, I finally got baptized last Tuesday. Even though I would have rather joined back when I was 19, I am glad that I at least made the decision later than sooner. Back to the topic, if you are convinced that what you believe is right, nobody can shake your beliefs. Is it true that there are some cults and whatnot not that prey on naïve followers. Even so, the more you learn about the bible, the more capable you are not to be deceived.

 

We all have something to rant about. Albeit, faith is the only thing that keeps us going. A man without faith is like a plane without wings. Hence, do I yet not understand how agnostics can be so confident about their beliefs. Sure, we all hold God accountable for the bad things that happened in our lives. Albeit, if we deepened our knowledge of his word a bit more, we would understand why he allows suffering to take place.

 

Most people who turn to Christianism, do so because they want a new lease of life. Either because they want to tidy up their lives or due to their desire to find out the truth about God. We should not only see the Christian life as a sop to help us overcome our past problems, but as something even more important. Hence, if you want to live a life of purpose, I encourage you to amp up you spirits, and never lose hope. Being a Christian is something to be proud of, even something to be shouted from the rooftops.
