What is a Good Christian?

What to you is a good Christian? There are many different answers that a person can give, but I will give you mine.

A Good Christian?

To me a good Christian is one who is Christ-like. That is, he or she or they try to think, act, and speak like Christ would in the same situation.

What is a Christian?

A Christian, as I define the word, refers to a person who believes in the Lord Jesus Christ and follows his teachings.

I don’t believe you can really be a Christian if you don’t believe in the Lord Jesus Christ. And if you really believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, you will follow his teachings, or at least attempt to.
