isnt a word better known in our vocabulary and that of the entire world than this word christian yet it is mentioned in the bible only twice the other reference to it is in the book of acts the disciples were first called christians at antioch we are told earlier these committed followers of jesus christ had been known as the people of the way probably as a result of the words of jesus declaring himself to be the way to everlasting life nevertheless they were a thorn in the side of that godless generation they didnt call them christians as a com pliment but as a way of associating them with the despised nazarene jesus christ gradually the christian church grew and many hundreds and thousands embraced the christian faith true christianity however represents a transformed heart and life which makes the receipient a child of god jesus in warning his disciples about their reception in the world said that if the world accepted him they would also accept his followers prom that time to this millions of his true followers have con sidered it a privilege to give their lives for him to die at the stake in the coliseum before the firing squad and in myriads of inhuman ways devised by persecutors insane with hate today as in earlier days there are true and false followers of jesus christ the true are not known only by their words but more im portant their actions especially by the love they display by this shall all men know that you are my disciples if you have love one for another said jesus how tragic to have to tell the nonchristian not to watch the christians people who dont know god should be impressed with a desire to know him by the words but more important the example of his followers could it be that true christians have things too easy is it possible we are too at- traded by material things and forget about eternal riches can it be we are ashamed to stand for him in an unfriendly crowd test we should be shunned or receive scoffing remarks i humbly take my place as a disciple of jesus christ whose life has been changed by his power whose true home is in the place he has gone to prepare when i think of the great champions of the faith that have gone before who have suffered so greatly for his name i consider it a privilege to move in their company when i have suffered so little luesby memorial co ltd 93 main st s newmarket
