Originally people who followed the teachings of Christ and his message of peace and toleration and acceptance of everyone rich or poor, man or woman, or any race. Throughout history some have abused this religion for their own selfish needs, False Prophets lieing to Christians and saying something is God's will when in reality it's their own. In turn this has hurt the religion some and its lost some of its followers. True Chrisitians tolerate everyone and try to teach the gospel of Christ to anyone who wants to learn or follow it. They believe in the Holy Trinity, which consists of God, Christ, and the Holy Ghost being three things while at the same time being one. Sort of like a cube is a cube but at the same time its also squares and also lines put together. True Christians try to help out their fellow man any way possible. Weather that be in the form of donations, food problems, medical help, or just needing a friend.
Mary: "Hey you want to go to the soup kitchen today with me and the other Christians from our church?"
John: "Sure"

Get the Christians mug.A misinterpreted, misunderstood faith. as you can see in many entries below. Christianity HAS been used to do things in "The Name of God" that God would never have wanted (ie. killing your parents, raping small children and mothers, stalkers, racial segregation etc.) But to give a perfect definition of Christianity - you would have to read the New Testament of the Holy Bible and see how Jesus Christ lived. He is the perfect definition of Christianity...afterall, that's where it all started. Before judging Christians, please meet a REAL one (a down-to-earth one) to show you what it's all about. Not with words, but in their actions.
NOT A CHRISTIAN: *Person standing on a box, screaming, "YOU ARE GOING TO HELL"*.
A REAL CHRISTIAN: A person who is humble, who shows by their ACTIONS louder than their WORDS that they have something different(Jesus).

Get the christians mug.a lot of people have been hurt by Christians who are not following the message of Jesus. take, for example, Westboro Baptist church in Kansas that is saying "God hates gays."
FALSE! God Loves every single one of us! in the Holy Bible it says that God loves us so much he sent his only son(John 3:16), Jesus Christ, to die which he did while we were still sinners (Romans 5:8). This point is what most Christians mis-convey, people don't need to be perfect to be saved because only one man could do that, but God loves us for who we are!
For those of you who still think God hates gays-- the Bible says that you will therefore be judged more harshly. (Matthew 7:1)
so, please dont let a couple of mislead Christians keep you from having a personal relationship with God

Get the Christians mug.People who follow Christ as the centre of their beliefs. They should accept that they are not perfect and that they need the love and forgiveness of Jesus to become whole again. They believe that they can have a personal relationship with Jesus.
Christians are not to be mistaken for hypocrites who follow a holier-than-thou attitude to life. Real Christians are humble and give all the praise back to Jesus.

Get the christians mug.A word that has been corrupted. There are very few real christians any more. Most "christians" are either EXTREAMLY judgemental, don't really care about God at all, and just use His name for their own reasons, or go to church on sundays, and bars on saturdays. A wise person once said that Christians are the people who send the most people to hell. Non-christians see "christians" andd say, these people suck. Christians DO suck. I believe in God, I worship Him, but I don't like calling myself a Christian. That word means nothing now.
Non-Christians: Hello, could you tell me about Christ?
Fake Christian: No way, you look like a hobo. Get away from me. COPS!!
Fake Christians (on sunday): Glory to God! We love you! Praise be your name!
Said Fake Christian (On friday): Whoo! Let's go get drunk guys!!
Fake Christian (In public): I love God, he's so wonderful. I love my kids, *gives money to hobo*
Said Fake Christian (at home, with family): Women! Make me a sandwich! (Women doesn't hear, fake christian hits her)
AND FINALLY!!
REAL Christian(Sunday-Saturday): I love God. He's wonderful. *Starts praying, then gives money to hobo*
Gosh. That took forever to type ;) bbuuuuttt thats america.

Get the christians mug.Normal people, they believe in the teachings of Jesus and God. Like normal people they can be jerks or nice. Christians have been portrayed for the most part as a bunch of science-ignorant homophobics, and yes this is true for many people, it is not the case with every single Christian out there. Anywho, they're normal people, believe in a dead guy's teachings and like normal people screw up time to time.
Some examples of good deads from Christians are Alcoholics Anonymous, orphanages, charities, and hospitals. Some examples of them screwing up include the Spanish Conquisition, the Crusades, and the West-Boro Baptist Church.
