If you don't follow Christ or love others in the way Christ said, and let yourself be bogged down instead with fearfulness, hatred, violence and the persecution of others - HOW can you call yourself a 'Christian'?

About This Quote

When you cannot love others as Christ has taught us to love, how can you call yourself a Christian? It is not possible. The very definition of Christianity is based on love. To feel that love for our fellow man, we must be willing to do all that we can to help that one person.
