Born again Evangelical Christian, bored. Want to convert! What denomination should I chose?
I don't want to become anything extreme like a Hindu or a Arab. But I'm bored with being born again, it just doesent appeal to me, i feel evangelicals are just silly pushovers. They use to be radical but now they are a joke.

So what other cool denominations are out there? I heard catholics are making a comback. Or the Mormons are preety popular these days. And some bapthists are getting a lot of publicity. What is the best one in your oppinion and why?

You should join the Catholic Church, because if you're lucky, you might become Pope one day ...

Jesus said, "I am coming soon. Hold on to what you
have so that no one will take your crown." Rev 3:11
Kinda goes without saying,
don't be dumb enough to give it away.
You obviously have no idea what you have.

There are only two things you need to know, and one, you should do.

1. They shall cast their silver in the streets, and their

gold shall be removed: their silver and their gold shall

not be able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the

LORD: they shall not satisfy their souls, neither fill

their bowels: because it is the stumblingblock of their

iniquity. Ezekiel 7:20


2. Therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ

the Salvation of Yahweh [Christ Jesus], who do not walk

according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.
Romans 8:1


3. And you shall love the LORD your God with all your

heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all

your strength.’This is the first commandment... And the

second, like it, is this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as

yourself.’There is no other commandment greater than

these.” Mark 12:30

Here is a book you should keep with you at all times.

count yourself among the luckiest if you have had an actual converson - by no means trade that in - USE that to seek a higher plane to God and get out there and maybe boredom will go away.

The Truth About Thread: The FINAL EVENTS Of Bible Prophecy

"We here are of the conviction that the papacy is the seat of the true and real Antichrist." - Martin Luther (Aug. 18, 1520)

"While God has given ample evidence for faith, He will never remove all excuse for unbelief. All who look for hooks to hang their doubts upon will find them. And those who refuse to accept and obey God's Word until every objection has been removed, and there is no longer an opportunity for doubt, will never come to the light" (The Great Controversy, p. 527).

"Jesus did not come to change the law, but he came to explain it, and that very fact shows that it remains, for there is no need to explain that which is abrogated." - Charles Spurgeon

"Jesuit Adam Weishaupt established the modern version of the Illuminati specifically to be a front organization behind which the Jesuits could hide. After being formally abolished by Pope Clement XIV in 1773, the Jesuits used the Illuminati and other organizations to carry out their operations. Thus, the front organizations would be blamed for the trouble caused by the Jesuits."

You can be sure that the ones against whom Satan wars the most are the closest to God and all His truth. Find a church with the most Biblical and Prophetic truth, the group that is described in this verse:

"And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ."

Re: Born again Evangelical Christian, bored. Want to convert! What denomination should I chose?
trust in the Lord your God with all your heart and He will make straight your paths -- do not lean unto your own understanding -- neither compare yourself with others it is not wise

we are commanded to love everybody, live in peace, and rejoice through trials. desert experiences are trials. steadfast faith is vital. keep going to a good Bible teaching church, keep reading your Bible every day and pray pray pray. there are no denominations in Gods eyes just believers and unbelievers.

preach the gospel if you're bored: Jesus died for our sins, was buried and rose from the grave the third day to provide us the free gift of eternal life ;-)

get into a small group, be discipled and make disciples. there's always someone with a trial to pray for and encourage ;-) we are healed when we pray for our friends ;-)

pray pray pray constantly -- without ceasing. and rejoice always

the Lord has a ministry for you friend He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him ;-) keep your eyes fixed on Jesus Christ He will never leave nor forsake you

love peace and joy

Excelent sugestions

except for people with the bible quotes.

Do you guys know how annoying it is to read those? I know it's the bile and the word of God blah blah, but it's written in such a stupid sounding language. Like prehistoric English, i can't even understand it, and I will not spend 5 minutes reading the same verse 50 times to get some sort of meaning out of it.

So all the people quoting from the bible unless you explain it to me I will ignore your post.

Develop a PERSONAL relationship with Jesus!

Perhaps you are in some negative relationship which can hinder real intimacy with our Lord.

You don't need to convert to anything, but following a Buddhist path will probably be satisfying to you in the long term. No drama, no devils, no bullshit -- just live in an ethical way, meditate by taking 15 minutes a day to breathe in and breathe out and ground yourself right where you are, and learn that the only life we have right now is the present, so treat your loved ones the way you want them to be treated, and treat yourself -- especially your health -- in a kind way.
For those who seek...

Re: Born again Evangelical Christian, bored. Want to convert! What denomination should I chose?
What is the best one in your opinion and why?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 867632


It's not about being "The best" but...

One who has a desire for spirituality differs from one seeking earthly and human fulfillments (i.e. the desire stages 1-to-4 outlined above). We already know how to fulfill our earthly and human needs, but when the desire for spirituality awakens, we no longer know how to soothe it.

Most people with a desire for spirituality today aren't even aware that they have it. Some of these people with a desire for spirituality might even be despising the very word "spirituality" thinking that it is something unrealistic and unrealizable. Such people feel their lives empty and purposeless, without knowing that it is due to this new, more evolved desire for spirituality awakening in them. They are unaware that this is the reason for their dissatisfaction and discontentment with life.

As children, many people ask themselves, "What am I living for?" But as the years go by, we are inundated by desires and temptations that divert us from this question, and the need to find a genuine answer withers away.

Nevertheless, at some point, the desire for spirituality awakens, and with it the questions. Those who insist on finding the answers come to Kabbalah, which was specifically designed to provide the way to their answers.
