[.. Very true. It's that sheep/goat thing. Some will say "Lord, Lord" - and Jesus will reply "I never knew you." ..]

Come to think of it the word "christian" is used like it means something on "these" threads..

A thread of what IS a christian could be useful.. since it is a pretty much nebulous word these days.. I know of people that think Jesus was a myth that call themselves "christians".. and WORSE..

Some even think a christian is one who accepts a measure of Roman Catholic doctrine.. or basically acts like a Roman Catholic but is not one..

All kinds of ideas out there.. the word is nebulous(probably)..

Thank you so much for your encouragements!

Indeed. In Revelation (Jesus speaking to the churches) He remarks that there are those who call themselves Jews and are not.

A thread of testimonies would be interesting, "I call myself Christian because..." - but in the end, God knows His own and He is known of them. (John 10)
