My personal testimony is a great indication of spiritual morals in Mere
Christianity. I first came to know Jesus through my grandmother. She is a very strong
Christian and helps me with my faith daily. My personal testimony relates to statements
made by Lewis in Mere Christianity. This wouldn’t be true if it wasn’t for my
grandmother teaching me about Jesus Christ who died for our sins on the cross.
My grandmother is a very spiritual woman when it comes to the Bible. She told
me that she couldn’t do the work for me to get into heaven, only I can do that myself. In
John 14: 6, it says, “I am the way and the truth and the life”. This means that God is the
only way to heaven. My grandmother also told me

al the time because of sin in our hearts and it’s apart of our nature. That doesn’t mean we
have any excuses still, because we all know the difference between right and wrong.

Even at a young age I was headed down the wrong path, but since I’ve came to know
Christ more my life has changed. My family plays a big part in my spiritual progress.
They lead by example and sometimes seeing is better than just hearing all the time from
your pastor. That’s what separates disciples from believers because anybody can believe
God’s word but it takes a true Christian or follower of God to do what he commands us.

I grew up in a family devoted to the Roman Catholic (RC) faith. We, my brothers and sisters, have taught and disciplined in this faith to become good Christians. My family faithfully come to church every Sunday, followed the RC customs and traditions, prayed the rosary every night, and served in the church by joining the choir and other church activities. We have taught that by serving God this way, we could merit eternal life from Him.
Many people object to our insistence that our "holy bible" is the only true word of God have never read any of it! Before we launch into a lengthy debate regarding Scripture, it would be good to get them to read it and let the Spirit open their minds to see its truth (1 Cor. 2:6-16).
The reason I picked Christianity is because they follow a book about God called the Holy Bible. It has a lot of info talking about God and more. One important part talks about how God let his son die for our sins. I think this is important because God saved our lives and risked his son life I’m thankful for that. I think the Holy Bible is a good book for that reason. Also there are more
As I have told my Sunday school classes through the years, the Bible is God’s heart on paper. You cannot know or please him without knowing and obeying his

First, my father and mother taught me the Scriptures, which I was so familiar with. Then I moved away in the military and through sheer happenstance (God’s leading no doubt) I find a church where I was stationed that had friendly loving Christian young people that reached out to the outsiders. This group of people, I’ll call it 757 were without a doubt the second most instrumental people behind my parents introducing me to Scripture. When I look back on my early 20’s and see the impact 757 had on my life, I can imagine now I would be a totally different person, living a very worldly ungodly life and am so thankful that God brought these people into my life. Last my wife. I didn’t know it when I married her, but she blows me away by her love and dedication to God. She is diligent and amazing and to see her love others and see the passion that God has given her for others just humbles me because I’m not like that. She spurs me on and when she needs, it I spur her on without her life would not be the

God’s Word is what we need to follow, what we need to take in account. As a Christian it is either all or nothing, so either every word of the Bible is true, or we create our own Bible according to our own preferences. Since I do not approach my religion,
Christianity is the first and only religion that I have dedicated to my life, as
Originally, I was raised to be a Christian. My parents were not strict church goers, but the concept of God was certainly prevalent in my life. Being raised outside of a church community allowed me the ability to formulate my own opinions on religion. My father wanted this experience for me. He was baptized Catholic as a baby, but with age realized he did not agree with the traditions of the Catholic Church. This experience influenced him to allow me to be able to choose how I wanted to be baptized.
Religion and personal belief continue to be important in the lives of most Americans. Large majorities say that they belong to a religious tradition and there is broad agreement about religious belief and practice. About eight-in-ten Americans say they have no doubt that God exists, that prayer is an important part of their lives, and that “we will all be called before God at the Judgment Day to answer for our sins” ("Trends in Attitudes Toward Religion and Social Issues: 1987-2007," 2007).
Although the bible is left up for interpretation, many believe that over time the words have been misconstrued. They yearn to
