Not all of us have that intrinsic faith since we are born or have been born into a family devoted to Christ, so, since when have you been a follower of Christ? My path started about 3 years ago...

Honestly, about 4 years have passed now. That's when I realized that there's a difference between being a Christian (life of Christ) and belonging to a church (church membership).

Yes, following the teachings of Christ is the purest thing, the church sometimes contaminates its word

I got baptized by immersion on June 12th 2021, so still a bit under three years.
Faith to Jesus does not come given, each of us most build our own testimony and strengthen it preferably daily, and then help and strengthen others.
Glad to see so many who have found belief in Christ so recently here.

I really believe everyone in some way or another does although they call it by many other names when they don't realize they are doing it.

In earnest, within the last couple years. But I'd gone through the motions for most of my life.
