    No one is born Christian, they may be born in a Christian family but they will not be Christian until they make a decision for themselves to accept Christ and ask Him into their hearts. Then and only then will they be Christian.

    Not if you use the Bible for your definition of a Christian. To be a Christian, you must believe that Jesus is the Son of God -- babies are not able to believe that. However, I am sure there are some "christian" religions out there that would make the case that some people are born Christians. People that use their own ideas and "logic" to form their religious beliefs rather than the Bible come up with all kinds of wild ideas.

    Think about it. Figure it out.

    lol. no. noone is born a christian. Christianity is not something bestowed upon us but something we work on personally. noone else can account for you and vice versa so you must learn this for yourself. if you are blessed enough to have christian parents, then you can be brought up living a christian lifestyle. however, i dont believe we can profess christianity w/o being baptized.

    ok i wld say the first steps to becoming a christian is by reading god's word(the bible) and then as we learn, we must act upon what we know and try to live our lives in harmony with what the bible teaches. you also need to pray for uderstanding before you read because some ppl interpret the bible differently. this is why we must choose our religion carefully. but he said if we search he will make himself found so do some UNBIASED searching and open your mind for the benefit of yourself.

    Yes, in the Bible it writes of a few being filled with The holy Spirit before birth! - One being John the Baptist.

    How do you become a Christian?

    I am sure you are going to get a lot of responses on this, and they I'm guessing would be right.

    To ask forgiveness of your sins and ask Jesus into your Heart and life.

    But please let me encourage you it is soo much more than that*

    If you wish to message me, if your ready to go through the sinners prayer, as it is called an we can do it together.

    Either way please have a Church and some-one to guide and help you in your walk after that.

    I would so much , as anyone would love to help you find a good place to worship and a great family in God, to be around.

    People are not born as anything but human. Your religion is taught to you by your family, then if you are smart you will question what they believe and discover the spiritual path that is right for you. As far as becoming a Christian, if that is the path that feels right to you, then find a church and start attending they will be happy to "witness" to you and teach you.

    Blessed be.

    No,

    You can be born in a Christian Family and be taken to church and baptised, spend hours and Sunday school but you are not a Christian until you , of your own volition accept Christ as Lord

    No, one can not be born a Christian. It is a conscious decision that one must make to accept Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Saviour.

    You become a Christian by becoming cognizant and by understanding the concepts of Christianity and accepting they are true.

    It is not possible to be a Christian from birth.

    People are born people. You have to make a conscious decision to be a follower of Christ.

    I was born a Christan I suppose. Just like all of my friends were. We were christened under the church of England. But hardly any of my friends are practising christians, nor are their families. And i think a lot of them have a large burdenous weight off their minds as a result

    In a lot of England, religious ceremonies have become not much more than ceremonies. largely populated by old people who like the social experience of meeting other people
