Various Christian sects have argued over how to tell whether one is a Christian or not. [...]

Jesus Christ claimed to be the Son of God; a Savior for all people who choose to believe in Him. [...]

'JESUS IS LORD'. Now, that is just the most wonderful thing to think about and contemplate upon. Very satisfying indeed! Thank you for your work here, -Sincerely, Bimon.
