[quote=Host] Jesus' existence as Christ. And the reason I have to believe it is because God's word tells us so! Why even bother being a Christian if everything in it is supposed to be something else?? [/quote] It tells you in the Bible to take every word in the Bible literally, and in no other way? And that basically implies that since I don't take the Bible literally, I should abandon my relationship with Jesus and start living in sin the way I used to so I can go to Hell.
