So we come back to the original question, what does it mean to be a Christian? Even Jesus says in Matthew 7:21 "Not everyone who says to me, Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven", and in Thomas 3 Jesus begins to paint a understandable picture of heaven when he says, "If your leaders say to you, look the (Father's) kingdom is in the sky,' then the birds of the sky will proceed you. If they say to you, 'it is in the sea,' then the fish will precede you. Rather the (Father's) kingdom is within you and outside of you. When you know yourselves, then you will be known, and you will understand that you are children of the living Father. But if you do not know yourselves, then you live in poverty, and you are the poverty".

There is only one law of God that I know and it is a law that I believe exists at the heart of every one of God's children and it is to simply treat people how we want to be treated, following this is what it means to me to be a Christian.…
