Question

I have an issue with this article. Just because you go to church every Sunday, that doesn't make you a good Christian, it just makes you look like a good Christian.

Carolyn Barratt

Community Answer

Nobody ever said attending Church regularly makes one a good Christian. Just like attending school regularly doesn't make one a good student. It does mean that we try.

Question

Why is it important to be baptized as a Christian?

Community Answer

Baptism shows everyone that you have now made a commitment, that you are now a new person. It is symbolic: in water, when you go underneath, it is like you have died. When you emerge, you have been brought back to life! In other words, the old you has died, and the new Christian has replaced that old version of you!

Question

Muslims believe in Jesus and Moses and all of the prophets in the Bible. We just have different names for them like Isa (jesus), Musa (moses), Dawood (David), Yusuf (Joseph) and Adam (Adam).

Community Answer

Yes they do, as their names are correct and the other names are just English translations.

Question

Why not convert to Islam? Respect my choice and my unshakeable belief in Islam!

Nobody is forcing you to convert to Christianity. If someone that is Christian is trying to proselytize to you, simply thank them politely, and tell him/her that you do not wish to convert.

Question

How do you convert a Muslim to Christian when the law prohibits this?

Carolyn Barratt

Community Answer

Keep in mind that you may expose potential converts to danger, if you live in such a nation. If those people want to immigrate to a much freer country, share with them your Christian faith then.

Question

AM a muslim and i want to get married with a catholic guy,How can i do?

Carolyn Barratt

Community Answer

Do you want to raise your children in your faith or in his? In the Catholic Christian faith, matrimony is a Sacrament and any wedding ceremony that is not performed in the Catholic Church is not recognized. So, you may have to make certain concessions to marry in the Church.

Question

Why would you change your religion as long as you're obeying God?

Community Answer

Religion is all about seeking the ultimate truth. If you find the ultimate truth of God in a religion other than the one you're currently in, then you may wish to convert.

Question

I am Christian and a boy who likes me is a Muslim. He wants to convert for me, what should we do?

Carolyn Barratt

Community Answer

Invite him to your Church and have him tell your priest or minister of his intention to convert. Teach him all about the Christian faith, and if it is for him, help him get baptized. He must be sincere in his desire to be a Christian, however, not just converting so that he can date you.

Question

How can I tell my Muslim friends about Jesus Christ?

Community Answer

First of all, remember that Muslims already do believe in Jesus, but not in the same way in which Christians do. Muslims do not believe that Christ Is the Son of God. They believe that He was only a prophet. Although they believe in his virgin birth, they do not believe in his passion, death, and resurrection. Explain to your Muslim friends that Christ died because He loved us, and perhaps talk about some of the biblical stories featuring Christ.

Question

I'm 14 and Muslim but I want to convert to Christianity. How can I?

Carolyn Barratt

Community Answer

At age 14 you are still under the authority of your parents. Would they be okay with this? If so, you may contact your local Christian Church and find out how to go about joining the Christian faith. If your parents are not okay with you converting, you may have to wait until you are a little older before doing so.

Question

What if my "friend" forces me to convert when I obviously don't want to convert?

Carolyn Barratt

Community Answer

Nobody can force you to convert to anything you do not want to be. Tell your friend that your faith is your choice and you have no desire to change it. You can even tell them that you won't be their friend if they keep trying to push their beliefs on you, if necessary.

Question

What if I want to be Christian, but I might get killed?

Carolyn Barratt

Community Answer

Do you live in a country with little freedom of religion? Perhaps you should emigrate to another nation first, before converting to Christianity. Until then, you can privately believe whatever you like - no one can monitor what's going on in you head - but it may be best to keep it to yourself until you can get somewhere safer.

Go back and speak to the pastor! Just ask him the questions you want to ask. He should be absolutely open to it. Jesus will be very proud of you for having the courage to reach out.

I'm a Muslim girl and I really want to convert to Christianity, but my whole family is Muslim and they don't believe in other religions. What can I do?

You do not say how old you are, or if you are still living at home with your family. Perhaps you should wait until you are old enough to live independently of your family before converting to Christianity.

I am a Muslim but my family is Hindu. I was once Hindu but now I want to follow Christianity, but how is this possible?

Decide which Christian denomination you would like to convert to. Once you have decided, then you must become baptized according to that denomination's baptism procedure. Talk to the minister, priest, vicar or other relevant person to obtain more information.

Question

How long does it take for a Muslim to make the conversion to Christianity?

It depends on the particular Christian denomination. For example, were a Muslim to want join the Catholic Church, he/she would have to enroll in the RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults) program, which begins in the early fall and concludes at the Easter Vigil, when he/she is Baptized into the Christian faith.

Why do we all feel the need to convert each other? Can we not simply respect each other?

Why do businesses feel the need to advertise? Why do countries feel the need to promote their nations? All religions proselytized at one time or another, otherwise, they would have never come to be.

Question

When Jesus was in Mary's stomach, who was God?

Community Answer

It can be a little confusing, but Jesus was still God. God is made up of the Trinity: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. They are all one. It is best to go to a church and ask the pastor about it for a more detailed explanation.

Community Answer

Do not fear the pastor. God has appointed him to his role to help lead people to Christ and teach them how to grow in their faith. A good pastor will show the love of Jesus to you. So, return to this church and muster the courage to speak with him. Also, Ask God to show His love to you. Feel free to talk to God and ask for His help in this situation. He loves you and wants to help you!
