Is Christianity Harmful or Helpful?

Don’t measure Christianity by Christians, but by

.

1 . Pursue True

Religion that is pure and undefiled before God the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world. —James 1:27

in Action

To Not Compromise

Treat others the same way you want them to treat you. —Luke 6:31 NASB

In everything, therefore, treat people the same way you want them to treat you, for this is the Law and the Prophets. —Matthew 7:12 NASB

2 . Prioritize Christ’s

All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age. —Matthew 28:18–20

Changed people

the world.

3 . Practice Different

You are the salt of the earth, but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltiness be restored? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled under people’s feet. “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven. —Matthew 5:13–16

Stay

: Preserve the good and make it better.

Shine My

: Make the world brighter.

Doing

makes God look good!
