When Christians fail to act like Christians, the cause of Christ suffers.  Our precious Lord is still wounded in the house of His friends.  People have a general knowledge of Jesus, and they often know when Christians are not acting like Him.  The early disciples’ lives said that they had been with Jesus.  These Jesus look-alikes were called Christians.  Their manner of life pointed to Jesus.  May we, as Christians, live like the Christ we say we follow!

And the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch. Acts 11:26b (KJV)
