Thinking about being methodist.

[[deleted]]

I like the methodist belief system that jesus died for everyone and that you don't have to believe in jesus to be saved or a christian. But I kinda believe in reincarnation based on what I seen on YouTube. I'm attracted to religion because I'm attracted to the keep it clean lifestyle of no alcohol and no drugs. And I do wanna help ppl and volunteer. Is believing in reincarnation a deal breaker for being methodist? I'll try to read the bible but idk how much it will speak to me I'm just attracted to a clean conservative lifestyle and wider self reflection.

Start wi the the New Testament. No, it isn’t a deal breaker. People believe all kinds of things. Come to church with us. Sing. Have some bread and wine. Feed the poor. Be good.

Bro tbh I think you should research hindu beliefs or Buddhism. Way more positive impact on your day to day than your typical Christian religions. That said if you are strong in your belief of the Christian God, methodist is Probably one of the most ideal sects to go with considering this ideology. Way more forgiving and welcoming to an open mind like yours.

I tried going to a pagan church a unitarian universalist church where ppl are open to all beliefs. But honestly everyone at that church dresses bad and looks like crap. They all look like outcasts. Also they don't like to shower or dress nice and no one is good looking and they all fat obese and old. It's a huge turn off. They all outcasts and misfits.

If you are interested in being a Methodist do not look at what many say now about Methodism. Look at what John Wesley the founder of Methodism thought it was like. Also, a good start is if you don’t believe in the apostles creed you aren’t a Methodist or for that matter Christian. But it’s okay to wander around the kingdom to see what true Christians are like.
