    Your Christian Litmus Test

     | 5,421 views

    To many churches today have become club houses, they gather together miss-appropriating the verse, "meeting together" (Hebrews 10:25) Their church gatherings have become social meetings, talking about themselves, their community events or political views.

    Your Christian Litmus Test Dictionary dot com has this definition for Litmus Test, "a crucial and revealing test in which there is one factor." Meghan McCain wrote, "The Democrats seem to have mastered inclusiveness - whereas Republicans, like a country club, seem to require a litmus test." ...read more

    We willingly accept the blessings of the Beatitudes, but must also embrace the responsibilities.

    THE BLESSINGS OF THE CHRISTIAN. Matthew 5:1-12. The Sermon on the Mount is directed towards those who are already disciples of Jesus (Matthew 5:1). This is important.

    What Is A Christian?

    I remember hearing a story of a young boy asking his father what is a Christian? After the father explained, the young boy asked, “Dad have I ever seen a Christian?”

To some, it means anybody living in the United States, and is not Jewish. The term Christian has been so abused and diluted that it has very little meaning to most of us ...read more
