That is not true, maybe liberal Protestants, but not Biblical Christians. Repentance is a necessary part of coming to salvation in Christ. Without repentence there can be no salvation.
"In Scripture, repentance means "to undergo a change of one's mind." This change of mind is not a mere switching of minor opinions, but of the entire direction of one's life. It involves a radical turning from sin and to Christ." R.C. Sproul
Mat 3:1 In those days came John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judea,
Mat 3:2 And saying, Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.Mat 4:17 From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
Act 11:18 When they heard these things, they held their peace, and glorified God, saying, Then hath God also to the Gentiles granted repentance unto life.
2Ti 2:25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;
2Ti 2:26 And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.blackregiment
Maybe Liberal protestants? ITS THE CORNERSTONE OF THE SECT, it was one of the MAIN REASONS WHY THE BROKE OFF from the Catholic sect! There are many definitions and spouting off some liens isn't gonna make your views correct.. Because those different sects will have their array of lines to which they feel justifies their position.
So sorry to disagree but a study of Church history will show that those responsible for the Protestant reformation were not liberal Christians, they were Biblical Christians. Have you ever hear of sola Scripture and sola fide? The backbone of the Protestant reformation was conformity to the Word of God, not the man-made traditions of the Catholic Church. Read about Luther, Wycliffe, and Tyndale and you will understand what I meant.
Yeah, but protestantism still has both conservative and liberal views in it. If you recall, they have liberal beliefs in reincarnation and the origin and such. You can still label protestantism to be liberal.Because people fear death and like the thought that they'll live on spiritually after death.how do we know if heaven even exists? why waste our time wondering whether we will go to heaven or not when we dont know if its real

You are confusing physical life in the temporal sense with spiritual life in the eternal sense. You are also assuming that God owes us something. He owes us nothing. We exist at, and for, His pleasure and glory.

Okay, no offense, but... that doesn't make any sense to me. :?
Me neither. Perhaps it's the total irrelevance that is the reason >_> I don't know, God seems pretty mean and vengeful in the Old Testament among other texts.Might I suggest that you separate religion and mythology? Mythology comes up as more of a term for beliefs that no one believes anymore and is by all means an obsolete belief. But comparing mythology with religion is a bit ridiculous in that religion tends to focus more on morality and rules for life rather than stories and heroics. While mythology did encourage some morality, it was in no way the same as to how religion does it. Morality has more of a moral connection, which is why it has survived longer than mythology. I'm personally fine if someone likes to stick with their religion. It's just that I can't stand it when people think everyone else should adhere to their own beliefs and that they use it for the basis of all their excuses and logical explanations.Why do you reject God and/or His Prophet Muhammad?
Mainly because I see God and other religions is nothing more then mythology. These mythologies are used to gain power, wealth, and brainwash people. Also God have been used as an excuse for murder, rape, many wars, racism, sexism, slavery, and the list goes on and on.
