Christianity is in fact, a Pagan religion!

I accept the challenge! First off, I would like to argue that Christianity is not a Pagan religion. Definition of Pagan- A person who worships many gods or who worships nature and the Earth. Us Christians don't worship many gods, we worship the one and only God, the Creator of the universe. Yahweh. - "You see "Christianity" only focuses on the New Covenant, and they leave the Old Covenant out." That is simply not true. We Christians focus on the Old Testament just as much as we focus on the New Testament. Just because Christians focus on the New Testament, doesn't mean we completely ignore the Old Testament. We also acknowledge the Old Testament and agree that everything in it is true and Holy. - "Christianity spreads much lies about what they "think" the bible says; they basically have their own man made doctrine." This statement is false because we Christians do not possess a "man-made" doctrine. We follow God's Holy Word and follow His Ten Commandments that he presented to Moses. All our preaching is influenced by the Holy Bible and what Jesus, or as you refer to as Yahushuah, taught to the Israelites. - "[Christians] will simply teach that if you believe and get baptized, you will go to heaven, this is FALSE!" In my opinion, I believe that if you truly believe that there is only one true God and that he sent his only begotten son, Jesus, to this earth and died on the cross for us, then there is a great chance that you will be accepted into Heaven. You don't necessarily HAVE to be baptized, at least that's what I believe in. You can't NOT believe in God and NOT believe that Jesus is God's Son and still go to Heaven. Is that what you're saying? That ANYONE, believer or not, can enter into Heaven? - "Christians claim to be all about love and peace, yet they are the most hypocritical individuals, and they contradict what they teach." What evidence do you have that makes Christians such hypocrites? Sure, we all made mistakes, even Christians have. I have made plenty of mistakes that didn't show any love nor peace. But you know what? Jesus died on the cross for us and washed away our sins and all you have to do is simply ask God for forgiveness and He will forgive you. (Psalm 130:4 -- But with you there is forgiveness, so that we can, with reverence, serve you.) Oh, and looky here, this verse is from the Old Testament! - "They celebrate pagan holidays (Easter, valentines, Christmas, thanksgiving, etc.) and refuse to celebrate Yahuah's HOLYDAYS (Passover, The Feast of Dedication, etc.)" Okay, first of all, how is Easter, Valentines Day, Thanksgiving, and CHRISTMAS a pagan holiday?! There's no evidence in that. Easter is when Christians celebrate Jesus' resurrection from the dead. Thanksgiving is when we give thanks to the Lord Almighty. Christmas is, well, celebrating Jesus' birth. And Valentines... well, I don't how that's a "pagan" holiday, honestly. And it's not like we refuse or ignore Passover or The Feast of Dedication. Us Christians recognize those Holy Days and respect it. It's just that, maybe some Christians don't normally celebrate them and that's okay. - "They call The Messiah's name "Jesus" which is a pagan Greek SUN god." Yes, some websites say so and it's pretty interesting. [http://hiddenbible.com...] But take a look at all the different versions of Matthew 1:21. NIV: "She will give birth to a Son, and you are to give him the name JESUS, because He will save His people from sin." KJV: "And she shall bring forth a Son, and thou shalt call him JESUS..." CEV: "Then after her baby is born, name Him JESUS." NCV: "She will give birth to a Son, and you shall call His name JESUS..." And so on... In fact, one version says that Jesus is "the Greek form of the Hebrew Joshua, which means Savior" So it looks like this whole "Sun god" thing is not all that true and that the angel Gabriel declared that Mary should name her son 'Jesus' because it clearly means "Savior" and not "Zeus". - "They call the ELOHIM "God/Lord" (There are many gods and lords, do they know which one they are talking/praying to.) Christianity states that there is only one God and one God only. There are no "many gods and lords", proving that Christianity is NOT a pagan religion. Like I said before, we firmly believe that there is one true Lord. We worship and pray to God, the one true God. And let me just point out the second commandment of The Ten Commandments: "You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; you shall not bow down to them nor serve them. For I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me, but showing mercy to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My Commandments." (From Exodus Chapter 20) You see, Christians still recognize the Commandments, which proves your first reason wrong. - "They worship on SUNday's (the 1st day), instead of keeping the SHABBAT/SABBATH (7th day) Holy." Just so you know, there are tons of calendars that say that Sunday is the 7th day. I guess we both have a different taste when it comes to calendars. -"They refer to both the Old and New covenants, as "Testaments." Covenants are promises that the ELOHIM promised to HIS people (Israel) and "Testaments" are testimonies." Seriously? Covenants and Testaments are basically the same thing. Definition of Testament: "A COVENANT, especially one between God and man." In conclusion, my point is that Christianity is NOT a pagan or "wicked" religion for the following reasons: 1. Because we believe there is only one true God and there is absolutely no other gods or lords. 2. We believe that all the scriptures in the Bible is true, both the New AND the Old Testaments. 3. We follow what God says and we don't make up our own laws. But I will have to admit. Nobody's perfect. Everybody makes mistakes. But that doesn't mean we're wicked. All we have to do is ask God for forgiveness and He will forgive our sins. Sources: https://www.biblegateway.com... http://www.yourdictionary.com... http://www.the-ten-commandments.org...
