“He will be the best Christian who has Christ for his Master, and truly follows Him. Some are disciples of the church, others are disciples of the minister, and a third sort are disciples of their own thoughts; he is the wise man who sits at Jesus' feet and learns of Him, with the resolve to follow His teaching and imitate His example. He who tries to learn of Jesus Himself, taking the very words from the Lord's own lips, binding himself to believe whatsoever the Lord hath taught and to do whatsoever He hath commanded-he I say, is the stable Christian.” MenTryingBelieveChristianJesusChristChurchLordWiseFeetTeachingExampleTaughtMastersThirdsLipsMinistersBeing The BestResolveStableDiscipleBindingBest Christian Author:Charles Spurgeon

The goal is to create an army of grassroots activists who know how to stimulate political change.” KnowsHardChristianPoliticalIndividualGoalResponsibilityKnow HowAtheismMovementHard WorkDevelopmentMembersPaperRootsOrganizationArmyPressesPositive AtheismListsMeaningfulReleaseMinistersGrassActivistContrastHandfulAdvocacyOrganizationalGrassrootsChristian RightPolitical ChangeMobilizationMailingPress Release Author:Kenneth D.
