I like to call myself a spiritual Christian. I was raised in a non-denomination church which I love very much. I how ever do not go to church every Sunday, pray every night, or read the bible daily. I do go to church when I feel I need it. I do pray a lot. Sometimes I pray three times a day and sometimes I don't pray at all during the day. I do have a bible by my bed that I read occasionally when I feel it calling to me.
I prefer to have my own personalized relationship with the Lord. What I do now is what he and I have agreed on. This works for me.
I question my faith sometimes. Not in the way you think though. I question it in ways like asking God if how I worship him is the correct way. Who is to say that the way I as a christian worship god is the absolute correct way.
I also sometimes wonder about reincarnation, past lives, and if hell is real. I would like to think that most of us have had these questions float through our minds. The bible gives us the answer to all of these questions I know. But we can't truly know until we pass.
I undoubtedly know that the Lord is real or at least a higher power that be is real. Something higher than humans had to have helped create our universe and what ever lie past it.
I like to think about buddhism, hinduism, and mythology. Many questions run through my mind about the stories and tales that are told about each. I still firmly say that I am a christian but I do wonder about each of them. Were there once Gods and Goddesses ruling the universe or were those all simply spun tales for entertainment?
I have so many questions and not a lot of firm answers, just my faith and many translated texts. I believe that it is healthy to explore your religion along with others. I don't care what religion you are or if you don't have one at all... it is good to question our existence... to be curious about it.
I like to call myself a spiritual Christian because I think I have a spiritual relationship with God. I have questions and wonders just like everyone else. I just can't bring myself to put myself in a box and make my religious beliefs so specific. So, I call myself a spiritual and constantly wondering Christian.
