Reply #6: Yes, most definitely He is God [View All]

[Roaming]

I used to believe that perhaps all religions were possibly right, that there were many in-roads to God. I went to Unitarian services for a while. But it left me empty--if all answers were "right" how could there be real truth? Real truth is exclusive; i.e., 2 plus 2 always equals 4, and even if someone sincerely feels it equals 7, that sincere belief doesn't make it the right answer... Chalk it up to my extremely analytical mind I guess--I was hungry for the truth.

I spent a lot of time reading the Bible, studying literature (a lot of C.S. Lewis, Strobel, McDowell) and speaking with intelligent, down-to-earth (not "goofy fundie") Christians, the latter of which answered many of the questions I had (and still have!), I've come to a place where I truly believe that Christ was God's Son who came to earth to save humankind from our sins.

You stated:

"I began to view Christ as the human incarnation of God, who loved His children so dearly that He suffered all the agonies this world had to offer in order to rob death of its victory."

That's exactly what Christians believe, with a couple of critical add-ons: Jesus actually rose again from the dead, and whomever believes in Him will have eternal life. (John 3:16) Gospel and Christianity in a nutshell.
