If those are the keys to the Christian faith and the "rules" that define a Christian, then I am content to continue with no label except that I call myself a "believer"..

I agree....I just love how men try to define a Christ Follower by mens standards....instead of by Gods standards.

We are only BIBLICALLY called to do the following:

1. Repent & turn from all sin
2. Live your life faithfully and obediently to Gods commands
3. Produce Fruit

These are the only requirements Jesus gave for entering into the Kingdom and receiving eternal life. This is what picking up your cross is all about....living The Way Jesus showed us to live. READ HIS WORDS MIKE......he makes it very plain how to get onto the narrow road.

BTW....I've not seen one verse of scripture that says I have to believe in a Trinity nor one that says I have to go to a building called a church....so obviously these things do not define what a Christian actually is....that is MAN MADE DOGMA.

I mean where do you draw the line or you have no line where you believe anything you want and you are a Christian? almost forgot my smiley face

See post #7 for Jesus definition of what constitutes a "Christian". All these man made rules we try to attach to what makes a Christian is a whole heck of a lot different than what Jesus says one is. I draw the line with Jesus.
