With all the catchy cliches around especially when one is asked to classify their beliefs; most people these days will refer to themselves as being “spiritual†as opposed to a Christian….
Well I thought I would put the question out to the BB:
Is it Better to be Spiritual or a Christian (follower of Christ)?

What exactly is the underlying message people are saying by those words " I'm spiritual"
They are acknowledging that their is a higher power, but they are not acknowledging that they necessarily believe their is a GOD, or Jesus, or the bible for that matter.

Even the devil is spiritual, so that really means nothing; it's nothing more than a catch-all in our pluralistic, politically-correct, "don't offend anyone" society. I'm a CHRISTIAN, and if you mess with me I'll throw PENTECOSTAL in there too. Thank ya!

Praise God...
I want to be a follower of Christ, I want to be one of my God's disciples...I don't know all the words!
This has always beautiful meaning to me, can someone finish it?
