LOL…I think that would be more “Christianity Light.”Newbie, I thought Episcopalians were “Catholics Light”. That is, until I went from being one to the other. Then I found out I was SO WRONG about that!![]()

At this point, DEFINITELY!LOL…I think that would be more “Christianity Light.”
No it does matter what they believe about Jesus. As far as “It don’t say anything about any faith and what they contain.” I was answering your question on the CC. I should have made myself more clear on that. I guess you misse the AS SAVIOR part in the original post. If you believe Jesus is nothing or a crazy man or not God himself or believe he is a evil person then you do not have a sincere commitment to believe in what Jesus stands for or to believe that he is our Savior, the Son of Man. the Light of the World, the one who died for our sins. To believe in Jesus is to believe in what he stands fo, who his is and why he came to earth.Thanks rev_kevin.
I don’t want to overly-simplify or make a caricature of your view – you don’t mean that it doesn’t matter what someone believes about Jesus, just that they believe in Him, do you?

I hope I answered the question to your satisfaction. I really thought he was playing word games because he would know what I meant being a follower of Christ and all. If you make a genuine real, sincere commitment to believe, I quess we missed the original post that said AS SAVIOR. but it alsp means in what Jesus stands for, who he is. and what he has done for us.Melanie, didn’t you know that Lutherans are “Catholics Light”
Verbum has a legitimate question. You need to actually read what people are saying, RK, you do this all the time, seemingly get offended when someone doesn’t understand your meaning. He is asking a legitimate question in a polite manner.
VC’s question seems to be, if I understand correctly (correct me if I’m wrong, VC)
Is it more important to just ***believe in Jesus ***or is it more important what we believe about Jesus?
It wasn’t clear to me either from your post what you meant: "The phrase speaks for itself. It includes ANYONE who makes a SINCERE COMMITMENT to BELIEVE. It does not say anything about any faith and what they contain. Its ANYONE who makes a GENUINE, REAL, SINCERE COMMITMENT to BELIEVE.
Much better answer.I hope I answered the question to your satisfaction. I really thought he was playing word games because he would know what I meant being a follower of Christ and all.

If people want to believe it symbolically, they will. That’s THEIR choice.Then why did Jesus not sayTAKE AND EAT THIS IS A SYMBOL OF MY BODY Matt26=26,Where does it say this is just a SYMBOL
Very good point about the beliefs of the WBC. I failed to realize that there are those radical christians out there. Thank you for making me see my failure on this.Much better answer.
One does not always know what others believe when they are “followers of Christ”. The folks at the WBC call themselves Christians, you know, although they are an extreme case. I guess we can’t always assume.![]()
