Most of us have grown up with the concept that, Christianity is a kind of religion or one of the types of religion. It's wrong. That is just the face-value. It is far more and greater. God divinely orchestrated a means to gather "man" to Himself. A means to impart them with His kind of life. To give man a perfect and loving world in which everyone will be able to relate with Him like a big family. And for that cause did Jesus come to Earth, to open a pathway for us to God. Through Jesus, anyone can come to God's presence anytime and commune with Him. Thus, Christianity is the family; God is the Father, and we (both angels and saints alike) are the children. AMEN! |

if Christianity is a family of Father and child, then why the compulsion on other families (Hindus.. muslims.. jews.. sikhs) to be adopted into your family ? 2 Likes |

Wilgrea7:Smiles, and who said there are other families? God isn't a polygamist. He has just one family...and that's "Christianity". |

Shawl001: what if i told you that God's family is Islam? or Hinduism? or buddhism? Zoroastrianism? .. how did you come to the conclusion that these other families do not exist?.. this whole family analogy is a self destruct button.. what makes you feel other families do not exist?? you cannot say because other families have a different set of DNA(holy books) then they don't exist because they don't agree with your DNA.. |

Wilgrea7:I didn't say they didn't exist... I said God is not a polygamist. That's all! |

What makes christianity a religion is the fact that God is not in the family photo. He was never there... The children have been trying to paint him into the family photo... but they only manage to do more damage to the photo. They sometimes erase(kill) real people in the photo to create space for God. This they may say is the will of God that was never in the photo.  Keys:  |

Shawl001: if you acknowledge that these familes exist and have their own fathers and your own family(Christianity) has it's own father... and your father is not a polygamist.. then why try to convince someone to abandon their father to follow yours? |

Wilgrea7:Do you guys even read post with your mind at all? Well, I think, most of you read posts to comment or antagonize, and not to understand. I said, God has just one family family...and that is Christianity. I never acknowledge any other family nor debunk any. I only made a Statement of truth! And if there's an original, there should be a fake(s) |

Shawl001: i told you this analogy is a self destruct button... anyone can make the claim saying his family is the only one and all others are fake... you avoided my question.. on what basis did you declare your family as God's family?? how did you arrive at that conclusion?... what is the criteria for a family to be “original" or “fake" ? |

asuustrike2009: if there is no compulsion, then why the threat of hell?... and what makes it superior to the threats from other families |
| Re: Christianity Is Not A Religion. It's A Family, A Father And His Children by Nobody: 12:19pm On Jul 12, 2017 |
Wilgrea7:There's no threat of hell . There are consequence for sinning without repentance after dead which is hell so persons are warned of the danger if refuse to harken |
| Re: Christianity Is Not A Religion. It's A Family, A Father And His Children by Wilgrea7(m): 4:10pm On Jul 12, 2017 |
asuustrike2009: no no... the consequence applies to everyone who doesn't accept Jesus... according to your family irrespective of how good you were... as the common Christian saying goes “your good works can't redeem you"... assuming the Christian hell is not a threat but a consequence of not accepting Christ.. and other families have their own consequences(hell) for not following their ways... then how do you decide which consequence is the real one.. and on what criteria or grounds do you determine that?? 2 Likes |

Shawl001: thanks.. i appreciate... is hell out of the elements in the family? if yes, then what of those who insist it is.. if no.. then answer the question.. if you wish to avoid the questions on hell.. then please answer my initial questions ... thanks |

The Bible says in the book of John chapter one verse twelve, " But to all who believed him and accepted him, he gave the right to become children of God." also Romans chapter eight verse fifteen to seventeen; gives more light... By these scriptures, it shows that there's a Family of God which consist of the children... And the truth is only through Jesus can anyone be adopted into the family. |

Also, if you are not part of this family, you definitely belong to the "other family"; the devil's. And an eternal place (each) is prepared for both families to enjoy the blissful presence and joy of their father. Ours is heaven and the other is hell, which is for the defiant ones, the disobedient and prideful ones. |

Shawl001:ive been waiting for this if you are not part of this family, you definitely belong to the "other family"; the devil'son what basis do you determine which family is headed by the devil? the God of your family might be neutral or the devil to another family.. so on what basis do you determine that the other family is headed by this devil? what UNIVERSAL basis? And an eternal place (each) is prepared for both families to enjoy the blissful presence and joy of their father. Ours is heaven and the other is hell, which is for the defiant ones, the disobedient and prideful ones. different families have different places.. some families claim that hell is for anyone not in their family.. just as you have claimed that the other family goes to hell.. after you answer my question above.. please answer this.. which afterlife scenario painted by different families is true and on what basis do you determine which is true.. thanks |

Wilgrea7:Basis? -By the word of God. You see, Your human mind cannot comprehend anything I say, no matter the proves I give or the basis you agitates for. Moreover, I didn't start up this thread to argue or exchange words, I did it to establish and make known a statement of truth. It's left for you to accept it or not. It's not by force, I am not putting a knife to your neck or terrorizing you if you don't accept it. So relax and just pass by. It's not mandatory to comment. You mustn't say something. If it's too big for you to decipher, leave it and go for something of your level. So stop pushing it. Just relax. Let those that have understanding of this matter contribute. Peace! |

Christianity is a family and yet the children keep arguing about which word of their father is real or fake. Sounds like a terribly disorganized family.    2 Likes |

Shawl001:Op, define religion from English dictionary? The last time i checked, RELIGION the belief in a God or in a group of gods ,an organized system of beliefs, ceremonies, and rules used to worship a God or a group of gods. How does Christianity different from this definition or are you anti-education? 1 Like |

Shawl001:and this is the bible right? other families have their own holy books which they call the “word of God" .. in as much as you can put down their families as belonging to the devil based on your “word of god" they can also put down your family as belonging to the devil based on their “word of God".. so which “word of God" is lying?? and no.. you cannot prove yours by quoting from it because they can too You see, Your human mind cannot comprehend anything I say, no matter the proves I give or the basis you agitates for.
