Why Am I A Christian?
Okay guys, I know a lot of you out there are probably wondering why I’m a Christian
So here it is... to be pithy smile


1. He’s real, you can see it every day. Just the diversity of climate, the fine details in everything. The human eye perceives everything as upside down and it sends signals to the back of the brain, and it flips it upside down (rightside up) and makes you see right side up. Every sound humans make is just a vibration, and our ears hear it and interpret the vibrations as sound, and that’s how we hear each other. It’s just so mind boggling, that I don’t believe it “evolved” over millions of years. Just a side note, there hasn’t been a single fossil found of an animal in the middle of evolving, even though it’s said that evolution occurred over a long time.

2. I didn’t really see a point in life, and I knew there had to be something else worth living for. Then I fell in love. With God. It’s just amazing, i can’t even describe it..

3. He is my friend. I talk to him every day about pretty much anything. I get advice from him, and he helps me through my problems.

4. He wanted a real relationship with humans so much that he made himself in the form of a human, born to a virgin. He did nothing wrong his whole life.

5. He died for me and you, and then rose again from the dead on the third day, just like all kinds of prophets, and even him, predicted. If he hadn’t raised again from the dead, I wouldn’t believe, because what kind of god doesn’t have the power to raise from the dead?

6. God’s word, the Bible, is true. All of it. It was written in Hebrew and Greek, and carefully translated.There were 7 original copies of the Iliad and the Odyssey, about 400 works of Plato, yet there were over 24,000 copies of the New Testament found. The Dead Sea Scrolls were found a couple of decades ago, with some other copies of the books of the Bible. These were the first scrolls that date back to the times of Jesus. Scholars studied it for years, and were able to say that it had been carefully and perfectly translated over 2000 years.

7. God’s word is powerful, I’ve seen miracles myself, like a friend’s broken back heal right before my eyes. One of my friends confronted 15, no joke, different people and told them things like, “You don’t need to hide in your father’s shame that he is an alcoholic and abusive to your mother” and “You don’t need to have 6 different girlfriends, you have a wife at home whom loves you very much.” All 15 of those people broke out into tears, sobbing, right there in the airport.She has a blog, click here in case if you think I’m lying.

8. Real Atheists that have done their studies know that Jesus existed, because it is verified and supports history. They just don’t believe Jesus is the Son of God.

9. God is three people in one, God (The Father), Jesus (The Son), and the Holy Spirit (the being that comes and “dwells” inside of your heart). The Holy Spirit doesn’t physically dwell there but it’s an illustration to say that God is with you and will be with you after you die.

10. Heaven is where people who believe in Christ go when they die. And sadly, Hell is where nonbelievers go. You can say that there is no God and life is without a point and whatever, but if I was you, I wouldn’t want to take a chance that there actually is a Hell.


If you have any questions I'll be happy to answer, but unfortunately I may not be able to answer all of them because no one knows just how awesome God really is. And if we knew everything about God and had him figured out, what's the point of following him? It's like taking Pre Algebra all over again. If you know all about it, no need to follow it.
God is real smile
Is there something I can pray for you about?
