To those who feel they need help on how to be a Christian in all walks of life, this article will offer a much needed counterpoint to much of the stuff out there.

Steps

  1. 1
    Love God above all else even to the point of becoming selfless, so that you can give to others.
  2. 2
    Have undying faith in God never wavering (Waffling and wavering is doubt).

  3. 3
    Love others as you love yourself. That includes people you may not like or get along with. Do not hate.
  4. 4
    Do good. Not to have a bigger treasure in heaven, but because you want to do good/right. You glorify God every time you do a good deed or perform an act of kindness, since you are one of his children.
  5. 5
    Follow the example and teachings of Jesus Christ contained in the Holy Bible. It's the only REAL "How To" about Christianity! Seek the baptism of the Holy Spirit because it is a promise given to everybody not only to guide but also to teach us.
  6. 6
    Don't judge others. Many people have trouble with that one. Judging is for God to do, not us. As Christians, we are called to love each other, and that means leaving the judging to God. Rebuking others (preferably as compassionately as possible) is fine, but first you must do as Jesus
  7. 7
    Read your Bible and pray every day. Just like eating and drinking to sustain your soul and body.
  8. 8
    Keep on giving God your "ALL". That means give up your right to hate, sin willfully or get revenge. Set it right--if you can--but that is not revenge also remember to repent which means you see the wrong you're doing and you quit doing it.
  9. 9
    Tell everyone and be constantly remembering where God brought you from and what you are now. That will help you spread the word of God.
  10. 10
    Remember Jesus died for us.

    Of course! You can be friends. That's what God wants us to do, be kind to others. Just always be responsible and chaste and do the right thing.

    Our mother is dying and another family member keeps us away. She is very hateful. What can we do?
    Community Answer
    Community Answer
    See if you can get another family member or friend to mediate the disagreement between you and her, or try to reason with her yourself. Ask her why you are kept away, and what good will it do? You can also pray for this person, and pray for your mother. God has everything under control.
  • Question

    Yes. Sex is a gift to humans from God. Only have sex with your spouse after marriage.

Warnings

  • Do the best you can, but remember you're human; so, don't judge yourself or others harshly!
    ⧼thumbs_response⧽
  • Never say anything to, or about, another person that implies you would be happy to see them go to Hell or die. If you even think about saying that, you should ask God for forgiveness immediately, and He will give it.

  • Do not fall victim to the idea that once we are saved, our sin nature is not there. It is. We must ask God to assist us in the daily struggle of resisting sin for us to succeed. Never let down your guard. "Put on the full armor of God, so when the day of evil comes, you can stand your ground." The devil is like a roaring lion, just waiting to devour any Christian who strays, if only for a split second.

  • Do not be over-critical of others. Being so critical of others may alienate them from both you and your message of hope and faith. Being against sin, love the sinner. Jesus said,

    "You have heard, 'Love your brother.', but I say to you, 'Love your enemy!' "
