Here is an open question to anyone here from any perspective.
I will start with me. I could argue that I call myself a “Christian” because I hold Christianity up as the prism through which my theism manifests itself.
But am I Christ like? Certainly not in these forums!
What about everyday life? Not much there either I suppose.
Do I follow the teachings of Christ? Well yes I could argue that I do, but it depends on how “follow” is used. By many definitions, I am not a “Christian”.
Are you a Christian? What makes you a Christian?
Are you not a Christian? What makes a Christian for you?
