Do you think thst everyone,or every Church who call themselves CHRISTIAN'S, are CHRISTIAN'S?
Example:If you take an apple,and slice into 4 pieces,can you title each piece by a different name and call it the same thing?
In answer to your second question; Yes, you can name them what ever you like and they remain four pieces of an apple. I don't know how to answer your first question because I don't know how you define Christian. There seems to be a great many definitions. You might say that anyone who calls himself Christian is in fact Christian by his own definition. Not necessarily by your definition or mine.
In addition:AN APPLE,would not be an apple,IF YOU NAMED IT SOMETHING ELSE.Whatever way that you define a CHRISTIAN,If you call it something else it would not be an apple it would be transformed and not be the same thing.I know cluts who call themselves CHRISTIANS.Are they?
No, they aren't, like all religious sects, they are about power politics, control. Jesus would be appalled by the way Christian sects behave today. You can call a lie what you like, it is still a lie.
Hey Jack put it this way you canstand ina garage all day and that wont make you a car. Do you get it!
"You will know them by their works" Many people claim to be Christian but unless they have a personal relationship with Jesus.....they are not..
.The Bible says "not everyone who says Lord, Lord will enter into the kingdom of Heaven". Translation....Not everyone who calls themselves Christian, churches or people, are!
No because being a christian church is an action word first what does that church do for its members or the community to bring them closer to God Second, people have a misconception of what a christian church is all about. many think that because you are called a christian you do not have to do anything but stand on name only. Third does anyone really know what a christian church should be. Four A christian church should be one that teaches about Jesus and his father they also should faithfully have their members read their bibles daily
A church should not be about just getting members or getting money. All churches can get members and money so what makes a church different from the others We need to go only by the bible the word of God only not anyones opinion Lead by examples in the bible not by what others do. Feed the hungry, care for the sick and shut-ins. Have values morals and it is not about you it is all about God.

Having worked in vocational ministry for the last seven years, I'm constantly perplexed by the lack of investment and involvement in church by those who attend and consider themselves followers of Jesus. I'm wondering if my expectations are wrong or if we've done a poor job communicating with...

"In bearing testimony of Jesus Christ, President Hinckley spoke of those outside the Church who say Latter-day Saints 'do not believe in the traditional Christ.' 'No, I don't. The traditional Christ of whom they speak is not the Christ of whom I speak. For the Christ of whom I speak has been...

Why is it that Christians believe that Buddhists, Hindus, Pagans, Native Americans, etc. are all wrong in their beliefs and that they'll all go somewhere horrible when they die? Why can't we just accept that other people have different lives and different experiences, and let them believe how they...

Is Kim Davis making Christian's look better or worse?I find this fascinating, because being a Christian, I think she is making "us" look terrible. I grew up in a Lutheran School all the way through High School, I try to follow the Golden Rule more than any others: Do unto other what you...

Why do so many people who call themselves Christians don't read their bibles?You know Jesus when things are going good than why don't you know Him when things are going bad.
