This is what Christian should be - merciful "Search me oh God and know my thoughts, try me..." If we are anxious to be on with this and talk of communism position contrary to N.T. man.</div>

<div class="SSN_notes">A man who is truly a Christian never objects to being humbled. Christian emphasis is on being - not doing. Attitude more important than actions. More what we are than what we do. Later he talks of actions. You are a Christian first and actions are a result. Not meant to control our Christianity, it is meant to control us. Not a surface experience. Beatitudes tell us that as we are living our ordinary daily life, we are declaring what we are.</div>
