About This Quote

The idea of acting like Christ is an interesting one. It's not so much about how you act, but rather what you are trying to achieve. The idea is that if you are seeking Christ-like behavior, then you will naturally act that way. You should be asking yourself what matters most in life, and then turn your focus to that instead of arguing over petty things.
