Many people think that the mark of an authentic Christian is doctrinal purity; if a person's beliefs are biblical and doctrinally orthodox, then he is a Christian.
People who equate orthodoxy with authenticity find it hard to even consider the possibility that, despite the correctness of all their doctrinal positions, they may have missed the deepest reality of the authentic Christian life.
But we must never forget that true Christianity is more than teaching - it is a way of life.
In fact, it is life itself. "He who has the Son has life," remember?
When we talk about life, we are talking about something that is far more than mere morality, far more than doctrinal accuracy.
-Ray C. Stedman
The Christian faith is meant to be lived moment by moment.
It isn't some broad, general outline - it's a long walk with a real Person. Details count:
passing thoughts,
small sacrifices,
a few encouraging words,
little acts of kindness,
brief victories over nagging sins.
-Joni Eareckson Tada
