Are you a Christian? If not, what would it take for you to believe in God?

No.

Absolute proof and to date there is none.

98 percent of every bad thing that has ever happened to me was done by someone who claimed to be a Christian including preachers.

Not everybody has to be Christian.
There are Jewish people, Muslim, Buddhist and a bunch of others. Christianity isn't the only religion in the world.

Your question is muddled. Believing in God does not relate to being a Christian. Devils believe in God and it does them no benefit.

Romans 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

A surprising number of people who claim to be Christians don't know that. That is a disgrace!

Read a chapter of Proverbs every day. Proverbs has 31 chapters so you can keep your place by just looking at a calendar. There is no religion or nothing in Proverbs and you don't have to believe anything. Just read to find wisdom. When you are comfortable with that, then read the bible from Romans to 2 Thessalonians over and over until you start to remember what it says. That is the part that applies to Christians.

BTW Christians are called to be ambassadors for Christ, not peddlers. You are asked to preach the gospel, not to persuade anybody to believe it.

No. Great claims require better proof than the assertions of an old book.

First of all what is a True Christian?
1) Matthew 22:37, 'You must love Jehovah your God with your whole heart and with your whole soul and with your whole mind.' First and most important step as,a,True Christian.
2) Matthew 22:38, 'You must love your neighbor as your self.' How could you do that ? 4 and 5 shows the most important way in showing love to your neighbors.
3) One who dedicates their life to the one and only true God and get baptize. So why baptize? 1Peter 3:21 tells us,'Baptism, which corresponds to this, is also now saving you ( not by the removing of the filth of the flesh, but by the request to God for for a good conscience ), through the resurrection of Jesus Christ. This means that you no longer live for yourself but you live for God, following closely the foot steps of the Christ.'
What did Jesus say a true Christian should do?
4) Matthew 24:14, 'And this good news of the Kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come.'The good news or God's messages have to be preached by all True Christians all over the earth as a witness to all people,this includes all background and all races dont matter their education level or financial level.
5) Matthew 28:19,20 'Go, therefore, and make disciples of people of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all the things I have commanded you.' So teaching God's word, the truth about it, is a must to anyone who calls himself a true Christian.
6) John 13:34,35, 'I am giving you a new commandment, that you love one another; just as,I have loved you, you also love another. By this all will know that you are my disciples -if you have love among yourselves.' A True Christian identifying Mark is love, love for God and man will be a dominant factor in their lives. Others will see it by their actions.
7) Luke 22:19, 'He took a loaf, gave thanks, broke it, and gave it to them, saying:
"This means my body, which is to be given in your behalf. Keep doing this in remembrance of me." We have to acknowledge the ransom sacrifice Jesus made for us and then keep observing the Lord's evening meal once every year as he commanded.
Yes I am a True Christian, for I practice all of the above and more. If you will like to discuss more contact me or visit JW.org
