Well I'm conducting a bit of a survey. If you have some time on your hands, please answer these questions from your own knowledge of what the Bible teaches on these matters

I'm a Junior in Highschool so i know my answers will seem simple and maybe even false b/c I am a stupid, dumb, immature teenage boy.
1. Common Grace? Ummmm, grace i know is unfair, not to the reciever, but the giver. Grace is letting someone off the hook. It's someone commiting an action that should result in punishment, but them not getting it. God gives us all grace by allowing us to live on this filthy sin ridden planet instead of dying as soon as we sin.
2. Believers in Jesus Christ 3. You know that he died and saved us all with his loving grace from sin. We listen to his words. We are commited to serving him, and our actions reflect him. 4. The Greek, or Hebrew i forget, word for faith is 'pistis'. Pistis translates into 'faith', 'Commitment', 'Justification', and 'Righteousness'. So alot of the times when the Bible says faith you can plug one of those words into it's place and get 5 diffrent meanings on what the writer was trying to get across. Faith is believing, but the way to say you fully believe is actually doing and living on what you believe. If you say you have faith in Jesus, but don't give a rip on what he teaches, you don't really have faith in him. He ment that if you don't show that you really do have faith, then you probably are not a real believer. 5. ....Ummm, I don't really know what this means. But I don't believe in predestination. Don't know if that answers the question 6. What? 7. Que? 8. Eternal life. We get taken care of by God and his angels. We have an everlasting joy that can't be taken away. There are millions of others. 9. I don't think so. If you really are truely a Christian I don't think you would logically be able to renounce your belief. Christianity is built on Faith in Jesus Christ, but it also is extremely logical. In other words i don't think that people that turned away from God were in actuality Christians in the first place, therefore not getting salvation
