I've asked this question deep into a thread, but I didn't get any answers. So I try again in a separate thread: again
[b]What is the definition of a christian? What is the least denominator?[/b]
If one follows the will of the Father, is he not also following what Jesus asks of him? Whether he professes to follow Jesus or not? So, is he not a follower of Jesus?

Ro 8:9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
This is just one of many charateritics that difines a Christian. I got it out of the Bible. It's the least common denominator I can think of.
Christians are the most selfish people there are and they are obsessed that everybody will one day be a part of what they are about(because they think they are so cool) giving rise to a false sense of reality. Christians will use whatever means possible, giving little regard for the costs that some people have to pay, to make their Jesus known to all.

Nice almost opinion! It's in no way verifiable and as true as any other generalized steroetype, but these mindless rantings seem to make you feel good so go for it.
Opinion polls show consistently that half of Americans believe that humans did not evolve but were created, along with all living creatures, by God 6,000 to 10,000 years ago.

And because I'm a Christian you will interpret this post as you being attacked. You are the attacker. You can't handle the truth, so you do what you do. Why are you this way?
Originally posted by WWindmillI know of many people who go to church to "learn" the Bible and fellowship with other believers, not to feel better.
So why do people go to church..? They go because they want to feel love and go on drugs.
Granted there are lots that go just to make themselves look/feel better. These are those who are hypocrites. They go and say "I do this" and "I do that", but they curse the name of the Lord when no one is looking.
