What is a Christian?

There would be six answers if six people were asked this question. One might say a Christian is a good living man, another that he is a member of a church or chapel, or that he is someone who does charitable work helping the needy, etc., etc. But if we look at the word 'Christian' again and pronounce it CHRISTian, we will be reminded that such a person is one who has some relationship to Christ in the first place.

In my opinion one who follows the words of Christ is a Christian. While asked what should one do to get salvation Jesus directed to observe two things. 1) to keep faith upon God the father with his full heart and 2) to love his neighbour as he loves himself. Those who live under these principles could be considered Christian, I believe. Ok would you please tell me why did you tag this discussion with DXN alerts? are you using the name of Jesus for the improvement of your business? You trying to cash upon his name? Really pity.

I used dxn tags for this discussion out of habit, so sorry. You will notice this is probably my second discussion about my faith, alm,ost all my posts were about dxn. I am sorry if you found it abhorrent, I didn't mean to offend anyone.

It is all right, MarvinP. After all your humble words I feel sorry for the harsh words I used. I have visited your profile page and found that most of your discussions were on DXN. Don't think bad of me.
