Well, the "Confirmation" is a catholic thing anyways...

It often happens that the real Christians don't come to Christ until later in life. You can't just be "raised christian". Something has to happen.

Yes, I am from Danmark as well. And I can confirm that the combination of letters in the quote is telling the truth.
All about the money.

Exactly. "2 Timothy 3"

And the book of James warns us that in the end times, "the rich will weep and wail, for they have heaped together treasures for the last days."

my ex was like this, she followed her parents blindly, and they were very religious therefore she became religious. i always would ask her why she chose Christianity and she would say "because thats how i was raised" she had no other reason, which was silly to me.

this was partly why we broke up, i was a more open minded person, and she was close minded as hell. (not saying religious people are close minded, im saying people who believe simply because they are told to believe are close minded)



lol

I didn't.



Nothing but the truth



Money and the booze ^^



One party wont get any ordinary person rich, and i honestly wouldn't 'weep and wail' if i died rich.

Thats not the point.

The point is, no matter how rich you get, or how many treasures you heap together, they will not deliver you on that judgement day.

My personal testimony has a little bit of both incorporated.

From the age of 5, I attended Sunday school quite regularly with my grandparents, who were going to church. For most of their lives, however, they did not go to church. My grandfather was raised in a Christian home and his father was a minister for the Assemblies of God. At age 14 he moved out and started his own life. He did not come back Christianity until he and my grandmother were both 40 years old.

I lived with my mother, who was not religious in any way, who regularly smoked cigarettes and weed in front of me and my little brother. So, in a sense, I was "raised" in the church, if going to Sunday school as often as my mother would allow me to counts.

At age 10 I decided to make a confession of my faith. I repented and was baptized that summer.

By this time I had moved to Washington to live with my father and stepmother, both of whom were/are nonreligious. My father has sought after truth in his life before, but due to religious intolerance, has greatly been hurt by professing "Christians" and other religious people. As a result, I never attended church while I was living in Washington, but would only attend church with my grandparents when I would visit them every summer.

In my early teens, I began to question Christianity, because I wanted to know if what my grandparents had been trying to teach me was really correct. I wanted to confirm that I could believe in Christ rationally and really accept the Bible. At age 14, I began doing some serious soul-searching and reading on Christian Apologetics. I got my hands on Lee Strobel's "The Case for Christ," and his other works. From there, I was convinced. By this time I was 15. I found a church to attend and since then I have been going to church even though both of my parents do not.

Today I am a university student at the University of Washington in Seattle, studying history and philosophy. I read Christian Apologetics regularly.

That is my story.

People always want salvation when their life is in the shitter. All their life they sin and don't care about God, then when they need help its "oh please help me." Lol idiots

up thanks for the stories so far everyone!
