I simply believe what I believe because G-d saved me then has allowed me to live what I have lived with Him. I have brought people people to Him off the street, I never knew before. I get to give 30% of my income in tith because of G-d and live. So people that can not give 10% are meaningless to me. I have walked in the gifts of the Spirit. I do lay hands on the sick and they recover, I speak in tongues and interpret. I believe because G-d has stepped into my life and not only saved me but healed and delivered me. I believe what I believe because G-d has backed up His Word and He is the real deal! Because of G-d I have forgiven the unforgivable, I am full of joy and free. Because of G-d I am not in bondage to masterbation, drugs, or trying to make something else that is blantly a sin ok because my flesh wants it to be. Because of G-d I am a free woman!! No matter what some kind of of so called Christian wants to throw out there for an interesting topic. Because I read the Bible. I am not worried if it is Ot or Nt if it is in the 66 Books then it counts. I do not try to minimize G-d's word. Not trying to make it not G-d's word. Therefore He meets all of my needs according to His riches in glory; mentally, emotionally, and financially. I work on making my Daddy happy, my only goal in life. Which even mans honoring my my mom, and my Daddy honors me. I do not know why to be honest I am still a sinner. But if my flesh had it's way. I would have nothing to do with my mom, shoot dope until death and say well do nothing else be a useless member of society. I do not like working, I do not like saying nice things about people people, I do not giving my money away, I do not like having to be a witness for G-d because I might say the sinner's prayer with some stranger. I do it because I know G-d. And I know what I give to Him in money, H e keeps giving more, so I can give more, I keep loving people and say nothing bad about them because I work in an emergency room and get to witness to the homeless just about every cold night, and our ems teams and our cops and our doctors and our..... And I just get to make Him happy.... And I promise you He is better than dope... Have you ever shot dope than lived.... it sucks... He never does... That is why I believe what I believe.... because I LIVE HIM!!!!!!
I believe what I do because I believe the written Word of God. No matter how many translations it may be written in, it is my staunch belief that God's message to His creation will still come through in Truth.
I also believe what I do because I believe in God Almighty and I have had experiences with Him. I believe because He has assured me between my spirit and His Holy Spirit what is Truth.
While I am a member of the Methodist denomination and worship in that environment, I am a Christian, plain and simple.
The one true church is the Body of Christ. Praise God He has allowed me to be a part of that church.

Most are wrong, because most don't preach Jesus. Most preach health and wealth, not the Bible.
Most get hung up trivial arguments. But if you ask most people they're true opinion if someone is saved who is in a Christian denomination, they will probably say they don't know. Unless it's the pope or another JW, Mormon etc.
Salvation is by faith. The other stuff can be done if you think it needs to, to settle the mind. But if you can't get a water baptism or a decent church, you can't. Not much you can do. Only God can do it.

i got the same answer as brother nehemiah.
but i also had a very powerful experience when i got saved by the grace of God.
and its true that people always play the i dont know what to believe so many churches and opinions card.
thats how the devil is attempting to confuse people. its very easy to see who is righht and who is wrong on the core simple doctrines. every church always claims to go by the bible in their doctrinal statements but few do, so when u take a look its easy to eliminate the false churches.
alot of the big ones are so easy to spot its like parking a car in an empty parking lot. take for example the catholics, u got folks praying to statues thats enough to disqualify them, orthodox praying to icons of saints they're out.
the prosperity preachers are against God for proclaiming only worldly riches and lusts of the world, so they're out. the jehovahs falsewitnesses are out for so many reasons its hard to even list them all lol. the most serious ones include denying bodily resurrection of Jesus and deity of Jesus. they also have no communion, complete cult.
mormons its easy to disqualify because they believe in a million gods so they violate deuteronomy 6:4 again an easy thing to spot.
so as u can see its not as difficult as the devil tells people it is.
