[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'd say Moses.  The 10 commandments are perhaps the most important aspect of Christianity.[/quote]

I find the New Testament spiritual and corporal works of Mercy more applicable to my daily life and practice of Christianity. I am seldom presented with tempting opportunities to worship other gods, steal, kill, or commit adultery. However, as I move about the DMV, I am often confronted by people who are in need and could use some mercy. I'm not a good Christian role model to my DC because I don't sacrifice to Baal, but I hope that[b] I am modeling how to live as a follower of Christ when I donate clothing and diapers to the crisis pregnancy center or visit a shut-in neighbor[/b].[/quote]

Many non-Christians do that sort of thing, too, without Christ as a model or inspiration.[/quote]

Good for them. However, non-Christians doing it, too does not make it less something Christ would have done.[/quote]

It simply puts Christ on a par with any good decent non-Christian[/quote]

And???

I'm not getting your point. Given that Jesus was a Jew, I'd say that HE was a good decent non-Christian.

Indeed he was - but he was the jew who established "Christian values"[/quote]
