Am I a real Christian?

That's how I've always defined it. But my definition is admittedly wider than most [I think it's possible for there to be Christians who don't think Jesus was divine, for example. So, there could even be such a thing as a "Christian Atheist".]

I knew you were just putting on a facade and just wanted to debate and argue. However, some people actually give you the benefit of the doubt that you are being honest when you ask the question.

The Indian mathematician Ramanujan claimed that some of his theorems came directly to him from a Hindu goddess. He has been dead nearly a century, but if you had overlapped in time with him, would you have tried to convince him that he was in error thinking such a thing?

They all live in you at the same time for they are one 🙂

That is why I questioned whether you believed in life after death and in God. It just seems to me that if death is not the end, then murder isn't necessarily all that bad. And if God is all hes made out to be then following his orders might be the best thing to do at all times.
Can you explain why you think murder is so wrong?
Can you explain why you would disobey God?
Note: don't look at my questions as challenging your faith, but rather seeking to better understand your reasoning.

That depends on which part of the Bible and how you choose to interpret it.

I was baptized as a child, so am I born again?
