A: If Christians have a list of life, is not it a good thing? Can we give various instructions to give instructions to ensure that we become "good Christians"? There is almost nothing in life possible in this way. In fact, even recipes are completely lacking. They did not take into account weather effects, slight differences in composition, changes in oven temperature, or many other factors. And "good" is the taste of the person who eats me. So, what do you need to become a good Christian?
To many people say this is to read your Bible every day, pray at least twice a day, serve in the church, support one tenth, support the missionaries, do evangelism, etc. . These are excellent activities of Christians, but they are not all of Christian life.
Christians are new in Christ (2 Corinthians 5: 17) and are those who restore relations with God. The life of Christians is to know God, enjoy God, and bring glory to him (Isaiah 43: 7; 2 Corinthians 3:18; John 17: 1-5, 22). Certainly, when we know God, a certain action takes place naturally. Jesus said, "If you act according to my orders, you are my friend" (John 15: 14). But before that he said, "I am a real vine, my father is a gardener, I will stay within you, so I will stay within you, I can not bear fruit. Unless you stay within me, you can tie the fruit ... This is the glory of my father, you have many fruits and show you that you are my disciple If you are with me, if you obey my orders, you keep my love the same as keeping his love according to the order of my father, perhaps to you, your happiness is perfect It may be "(John 15: 1-11). Obedience - I am living a life of "good Christian" from the relationship of love. Obedience helps us stay in the love of God and experience the joy of God.
Being a "good Christian" is not to do something. It is to grow like loving Christ and to allow his Holy Spirit to change our mind and life. Jesus is the author and perfectionist of our faith (Hebrews 12: 2), is a recipe writer and a taste tester in our life. We are enjoying him when we know God and praise God (Psalm 73: 25-26). A good Christian knows God, tastes God, and grows with grace

I have always believed that persecution is a common interest of Christians, but the persecution of non-believers is faced by all good Christians. I am no longer an evangelical Christian, but I know the world is very good. A complex of persecution of Christianity as old as history itself still exists in the United States today. Actually prejudice against Christianity and persecution are the themes of Fox News. It is almost impossible to see friends and friends for over a few minutes in the morning, and I've never heard how Christians recently dealt with them and how much they suffered for their beliefs.
Christian persecution can go back to history from the first century of the Christian era to the present. Early Christians were persecuted for the belief of a few Jews who came from Christianity and the Romans dominated many of the early Christian populations. As early as the 4th century AD, some form of religion was legalized by the Milan Decree and eventually became the Roman Empire's national church. In the 20th century, Christians were persecuted by various groups, including the Armenian massacres in the form of the Islamic Ottoman Empire, the Assyrian massacre, the Greek genocide, and atheistic countries such as the Soviet Union and North Korea. During World War II, members of several Christian churches were persecuted in Nazi Germany to boycott the Nazi ideology.
Looking back on the work of the white church, Frederick Douglas said. "I realize the biggest difference between Christianity in this land and Christianity in Christ. People need to refuse that others are bad people, corrupt people, bad people There must be an opponent's enemy in order to become a friend of that person.Credibil
