The catholic church is not christianity. For 1800 years or so we have been told it is. That's a lie.
I'll repeat catholicism is not true christianity. They claim to be. They claim the name of Jesus. See Matthew 24:[4] And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.[5] For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
There are 2 or 3 titles given to the pope that indicate he is claiming to be more "Christ" than any human ought.
How about this leader

Jesus the Christ for remission of sins.

Christianity is Jesus being the sacrifice for the remission of sin. This is found in Genensis. Genesis 3:[15] And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.
I will be ...I will be...I will be.. I will be...I will be..five times it was said..
I will be the leader of my own religion....a demigod here on earth. I know better than God...
Well spoken excitable boy..please continue.

Ha? Genesis? Bruise thy head and bruise his heel?? What does that rubbish mean? This somehow pertains to Jesus not being the leader of anything? How?
I already know and have told you. You need to find out for yourself.

Each individual person is required to make a choice to reject Christ as Savior or not.

No. I already know all I need to know.
I have God in my life. And another fine quote from dbrandt. Each of us is REQUIRED to reject Christ as Savior or not? Required by who? When did such a requirement become part of life?
Jesus said it,
John 3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
You do know that Peace is one of the name for Jesus the Christ for remission of sins....do you not???? One of His names among many!!
Well stated!!

and dbrandt....what have you and the rest of the Born Agains decided that this means? You see...to me, this could mean that Jesus believed in reincarnation and that a man must live more than one life before he can enter the kingdom of God.
