Top Ten Signs You're a Christian

 

10 - You vigorously deny the existence of thousands of gods claimed by other religions, but feel outraged when someone denies the existence of yours.

 

9 - You feel insulted and "dehumanized" when scientists say that people evolved from other life forms, but you have no problem with the Biblical claim that we were created from dirt.

 

8 - You laugh at polytheists, but you have no problem believing in a Triune God.

 

7 - Your face turns purple when you hear of the "atrocities" attributed to Allah, but you don't even flinch when hearing about how God/Jehovah slaughtered all the babies of Egypt in "Exodus" and ordered the elimination of entire ethnic groups in "Joshua" including women and children!

 

6 - You laugh at Hindu beliefs that deify humans, and Greek claims about gods sleeping with women, but you have no problem believing that the Holy Spirit impregnated Mary, who then gave birth to a man-god who got killed, came back to life and then ascended into the sky.

 

5 - You are willing to spend your life looking for little loopholes in the scientifically established age of Earth (few billion years), but you find nothing wrong with believing dates recorded by Bronze Age tribesmen sitting in their tents and guessing that Earth is a few generations old.

 

4 - You believe that the entire population of this planet with the exception of those who share your beliefs -- though excluding those in all rival sects - will spend Eternity in an infinite Hell of Suffering. And yet consider your religion the most "tolerant" and "loving."

 

3 - While modern science, history, geology, biology, and physics have failed to convince you otherwise, some idiot rolling around on the floor speaking in "tongues" may be all the evidence you need to "prove" Christianity.

 

2 - You define 0.01% as a "high success rate" when it comes to answered prayers. You consider that to be evidence that prayer works. And you think that the remaining 99.99% FAILURE was simply the will of God.

 

1 - You actually know a lot less than many atheists and agnostics do about the Bible, Christianity, and church history - but still call yourself a Christian.

 

*****************************************************

MISSION (IM)POSSIBLE????

 

What SHOULD be the "Top Ten Signs You're A Christian"? Some Christians will name the fruits of the spirit as quoted by Paul. Is it sufficient? What is required to drag such list into the 21st century and make it relevant?

 

Your task, should you choose it, is to create a "Top Ten Signs You're A Christian" without using Christianese, Christian clichés, Christian idioms, or bible quotes. Hint:  these items should be VISIBLE. (A sign is visible.)

LOL girl.... you worked too hard on that one...
Why just a top ten for something as important as deciding one's religion, why not a top hundred, thousand or million?

Yours truly,
Anthony Smith
Jesus didnt need a list of ten, a thousand nor a million. He gave just one sign...just gave ONE... do you know what it is?
I generally don't take test based on religion, but I like HOPE-Psalm 43:5 topics. I maybe wrong, I didn't speak to Jesus Christ about this, but I'm sure it maybe a sign of Faith. At least that's what I was getting at with why just a top ten for something as important as deciding one's religion, why not a top hundred, thousand or million? When all you need is your own personal faith, no matter what religion you practice that guide you to believe in a personal relationship & spiritual faith in God.

Yours Truly,

LOL... ya'll are trying WAAAYYYY too hard LOL

No wonder why the world looks at us funny
I already spilled it... its right in front of your eyes Sis.....

Ya'll being all hyper spiritual and thangs LOL

Jesus gave a very simple answer.
ReAsOn DiSciPLe was definitely on point with the answer to your question. After all Jesus did give us 2 Great Commandments: Matthew 22:37-40

Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.
Just be one
