		<description>Well Alex,  I guess we all use the gifts we have.  You are right that these actions can be explained in other ways.  That is why we need to explain them.  That actions by themselves to not point necessarily to the gospel but if we are acting in these ways I think that people will ask for an explanation and we can point to the gospel.  

I still think that it is an important exercise for me to ask, How would I show to my neighbor that Christ lives in me.  My main point is that if Jesus was not content to let theological claims float unsupported, so much more so I should not be.  I cannot verify claims with the same authority that he did, but in my experience a Christian living as Christ in the world does create almost as much awe as a lame man walking.</description>

		<description>&quot;At the very least it must include:Service, Sacrifice, Generosity, Joy, Living Free from guilt, Progressive politics (just kidding)&quot;

BUT the actions on this list are explainable in other ways, because there are many not Christians who practice them.  When Jesus ended the sentence “but so that you may know” - he did it w/ something supernatural - something not able to be replicated by others.</description>
