Some polls indicate that up to 83% of Americans say they are "Christian." Why? Mainly because they are not Muslims,Jewish, Hindu, or Buddhas. Thus, they MUST be Christians, right? WRONG, WRONG AND MORE WRONG!!! To BE a Christian, one must have come to know that Jesus Christ IS THE SON OF THE ONE AND ONLY TRUE LIVING GOD! Period. Paul's gospel, 1 Cor 15: 1-4, clearly tell us what we must do to accept Jesus as our Savior. Just "saying" you are a Christian is as simple as saying I am a Green Bay Packers fan or a Yankees fan. Dudden really mean anything. To be a Christian is a personal relationship with the Creator God, the I AM of the Bible. Not like Obama and the others in that 83% that call themselves Christians simply because they have no other "handle" to hang on themselves. No true, Jesus Christ believing Christian would approve and support Homosexuals, their so called marriages and abortion as Obama does. I do not know Obama's heart. But my Christian heart does not approve of those items mentioned because my God says NO! to them.

If Paul, instead of Our Lord, is the final authority on who or what is a Christian, why is it called Christianity, rather than Paul’s religion or some such? Saul/Paul wasn’t even one of the original disciples and never met Jesus. I’ve always wondered why Paul is always deferred to. I’m not saying this to insult you, but it’s always kind of stuck in my craw.

You got that right. Even demons say they beleive in Christ.
