I want to move to Japan where it is mostly Shinto and stuff, and I'm Christian. Is it

I want to move to Japan, and there about less than 5% Christians there. Is it still okay for me, a Christian, to live there? Thanks.
I'm not worried about other people, I'm worried about what God would think?

Yes you can live there they are civilize people.

Why do you need to ask? Why do you need to get our permission. If you want to do it and if you feel confident in your belief system the go.

Met new people, talk with them, share, and be true to yourself.

Have fun,

a

yes, but you will be persecuted more!

Yes. You are a ministry wherever the Lord puts you. Whether you like it or not, know it or not, or try or not.

yes it's OK to live there.

it doesn't matter

God said ...i will never leave you or forsake you...if your a christian..god will be with you anywhere you go...maybe you will have a chance to minister to people there

Well. . . you are supposed to emulate Jesus, right? How many Christians were there where Jesus lived?

Seriously, I don't know what the official Christian teaching is, but if you fear that your faith would be weakened by not having the company of other Christians, you should not go unless you can arrange to live among Christians. If you have no fear of losing your faith, I just can't imagine how it would be a problem.

you must be kidding. why wouldn't it be okay? god isn't going to care just so long you still keep him in your soul


yes, its OK for you to move to japan. they got Church's of various christian sects.

Of course it's OK to live there. God is everywhere, among the Shinto people as well as the Christians. Perhaps God can show you that He works among them as well as Christians, and this could be an important lesson.

God does not stay here when you leave. You can take Him with you, you know? Who knows, maybe in going there you can be a powerful testimony to save the lost in Japan. Maybe that is God's will for your life. The Bible tells us to go and teach the gospel to a lost and dying world. It sounds like Japan fits that category to a T.

God be with you and bless you!

God has children everywhere. His true believers are to become a guiding light to those who live around them. This may be your opportunity to serve God.

God isn't going to care where you live. God is interested in HOW you live your life.

Absolutely! If you have experienced a true conversion, Jesus is with you wherever you are!
Peace be multiplied to you.

It should be a matter of prayer. But since you look to the Internet for advise in such matters, possibly you are not spiritual mature enough to be in the midst of false religion. I would worry you would compromise and Bergen celebrating national holidays and Christmas and stuff. huh.

Yeah, it is believe it or not they actually have Christians there. God Bless. Love. Amen. Search the city and find some fellow brothers or sisters.

That is no way to live your life...

You are afraid to move because your god would be mad.

And you really want me to believe that crap!?! Ugh.

Live where you desire............

Find a faith community that supports you.

Live a happy life!

MERRY CHRISTMAS....................

I was there 13.5 years with my family.
It was great, and we loved it.
We would still be there if God had not brought us "home." But he closed every door of opportunity for us to remain.

He opened doors for us in the good ole US of A.

Go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.......Jesus will be with you always, even to the end of the age.

Actually, the number is closer to 1%. However, the Japanese are, if nothing else, very accommodating. So long as you don't try to change them, they won't try to change you. The Japanese have even absorbed certain Christian traditions into their lifestyle.

If you're concerned about what God would think, why not ask Him? When I have a problem, I ask the god and goddess for help, and it is always answered (maybe not the way I'd like, but I always get an answer).

1. Japan is 90% Shintoist, 9% Buddhist, the rest are obscure and minor religions like yours. Don't annoy them by spewing your religious feces - oops, faces.

2. What "god"? Put up or shut up. Show it or stow it.

3. Why not go live in Indonesia instead if you plan to inflict your religion on non-Christianizes? Or better yet, Cambodia: proselytizing there will land you in jail.

Go to Japan. Live according to the rules of God, and honor His Son by setting a good example so others will want to follow the path you walk. By doing so you will help Jesus save more people, and you will gain good friends there.

Of course it's OK for you to live there. It's good to open up to other cultures and other religions. You don't have to give up your own beliefs to respect and value those of others. If your brand of Christianity is so oppressive that you are afraid to experience the world then you aren't getting it right.

Hey if that's were the Lord is calling you Go if its not then don't if your worried about staying strong and having good biblical teaching Google Chuck Smith 5000 series and you will have solid teaching Genesis to revelation verse by verse for free (Evan if you don't go its good )you'll have church in Japan in your own home remember to put Lord 1st in all Evan when in a foreign place so you don't slip without a body around you Stay in the word and continually talk to Lord and stop to listen making sure what you hear lines up with the word. plus read Matthew 28:19, Mark 16:15 it might help you in your decision God Bless
