1 | Is the UPC a Christian Church? | Matt 24:11 | DarcyA | 97489 | ||
To me a definition of a Christian is as follows: Someone who believes in THE Lord Jesus Christ that He died for your sins He paid the penalty on the Cross and that he rose again on the third day. All others are doctrines, and can be disputed. I believe that you must believe when i say the Lord Jesus Christ. Thazt you must know he iws the son of God, He is God he was born of a virgin lived a sinless life, he bore our sins on the cross. According to the Bible their is no other belief that someone must have in order to be saved. Paul said I come knowing nothing but Christ and Him crucified. The problem with Orthodox christianity as a whole, Cults, other religions is that they say you must believe in other things than Christ and Him crucified. All other true doctrines are for awards in heaven false doctrines I believe will cause you to lose them. 1:7 For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist. 1:8 Look to yourselves, that we lose not those things which we have wrought, but that we receive a full reward. They have nothing to do with Salvation or Christian, according to the bible has to do with awards. The Gospel message is so simple so perfect nothing needs to be added to it. |

I quote here the best, clearest, most concise and accurate answer I've ever heard to the question: WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO *BELIEVE* IN JESUS CHRIST? "To believe in Jesus Christ is to have a confident conviction that: '1) He is who the Bible says He is. '2) He will do what He promises. '3) Upon placing my trust in Him, I enter into a personal, eternal relationship with the Son of God." (Quoted from a sermon by Charles Stanley, In Touch Ministries) Notice that this is not God's Simple Plan of Salvation or How to be Saved or Steps to Salvation. This is merely WHAT IT MEANS TO *BELIEVE* IN JESUS CHRIST. "1) He is who the Bible says He is." And according to the Scriptures, He is not the Father and He is not the Holy Spirit. He is not one God in one Person. To believe otherwise is to believe in another gospel and another Christ. --Radioman2 |

Rman: We can't explain the trinity. Its a God thing not a Human thing Our minds can not understand. The problem with UPC is they try to explain the trinity in a way that Humans can concieve it. You ask me to explain the trinity best answer I have is 1x1x1. The Jewish people believe in One God in the oneness sence of the word. But yet they are waiting for the Son of God their messiah to appear. I can't explain that. |
