I don't think you can consider yourself a Christian unless you believe that to be factually true.
And I think that's the bedrock of any Christian denomination and all Christian faith, certainly in my eyes.
Do I think it applies to faith?
Yes, it does.
I feel like your conviction in that one fact matters more than what a lot of people do, and you know this, trying their best to prove they're the best Christian to the whole world, when maybe in their mind what they don't do is research and tackle the actual evidence and the actual fact around Jesus' resurrection.
I think a lot of people are happy to go to church and sing their songs,
And how much they sin in their personal life really isn't a concern for me.
I don't try to police other people's lives.
But I'm not sure if you walked into a church in anywhere in the world that 100% of people could sit and argue compendiously
about why they believe in the miracle of Jesus' resurrection.
I don't believe they can do that.
They just say it.
They state it.
I feel like there are people in the world who are religious leaders, and you very much are.
whether you like it or not, a religious leader.
This is the cornerstone of everything that you're doing.
I'm not a religious leader.
I'm a Christian in my own personal life, but I'm not, I don't think, qualified, I guess would be the correct term, to run a ministry or to preach to other people.
So I feel like the best a man like me can do, given my background,
albeit rather colorful past and, you know, my struggles with atheism, etc., would be just to try to lead and live as an example.
