"But the question is: What is a Christian? And a Christian is a person that believes Jesus Christ is God's son who died on a cross for our sins who God raised to life. And that if we put our faith and trust in him, then God will forgive us of our sins. Now, that's the definition of a Christian. I was 22 years old when I asked Christ to come into my heart. You cannot be born a Christian; you can only be converted. And that is by putting your faith and trust in Christ," Graham said.

The Apostles' Creed
The Apostles' Creed
The basic creed of Reformed churches, as most familiarly known, is called the Apostles' Creed. It has received this title because of its great antiquity; it dates from very early times in the Church, a half century or so from the last writings of the New Testament.
I believe in God, the Father Almighty,
the Creator of heaven and earth,
and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord:
Who was conceived of the Holy Spirit,
born of the Virgin Mary,
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried.
He descended into hell.
The third day He arose again from the dead.
He ascended into heaven
and sits at the right hand of God the Father Almighty,
whence He shall come to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy Christian church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and life everlasting.
Amen.

James Harper drops out of school choir
A Colorado high school student says he quit the school choir after an Islamic song containing the lyric "there is no truth except Allah" made it into the repertoire.
James Harper, a senior at Grand Junction High School in Grand Junction, put his objection to singing "Zikr," a song written by Indian composer A.R. Rahman, in an email to Mesa County School District 51 officials. When the school stood by choir director Marcia Wieland's selection, Harper said, he quit.
"I don’t want to come across as a bigot or a racist, but I really don’t feel it is appropriate for students in a public high school to be singing an Islamic worship song,” Harper told KREX-TV. "This is worshipping another God, and even worshipping another prophet ... I think there would be a lot of outrage if we made a Muslim choir say Jesus Christ is the only truth."

Wycliffe Bible Translators
Chrislam: The Insider Movement Lie
Every time I think I’ve heard it all, along comes information that makes me want to jump into bed, cover my head and wait for Jesus to get me outta here! Dear Reader, allow me to share an insidious, blasphemous form of political correctness, masquerading as Christian missions. Ready? It’s called, Chrislam. This teaching is being taken by ‘Christian missionaries’ to Muslim countries and is, basically, a mixture of Christianity and Islam. It is another form of Islam and is a perversion of the gospel of Christ. Stop laughing! I’m completely serious!
The long admired and respected Wycliffe Bible Translators, along with the Summer Institute of Linguistics and Frontiers, are producing Bibles that remove or modify terms they’ve decided are offensive to Muslims, thus creating a Muslim-friendly Bible. Let me say it again. A Muslim-friendly Bible. This entails removing any references to God as ‘Father’, Jesus as ‘Son’ or the ‘Son of God.’ After all, we wouldn’t want to upset or confuse the little darlings! Click for article by By Donna Wasson
