Question 31

API: GET /api/v1/documents/aoc1680/questions/31

But why art thou called a Christian?

Because through Faith I am a member of^a Jesus Christ,^b and partaker of his anointing, that both I^c may confess his name, and present my self unto him^d a lively Sacrifice of thankfulness, and also may in this life fight against Sin and Satan with free and good conscience, and^e afterwards enjoy an everlasting Kingdom with Christ.
