Question #31
of An Orthodox Catechism
Question
But why art thou called a Christian?
Answer
Because through Faith I am a member of1 Jesus Christ,2 and partaker of his anointing, that both I3 may confess his name, and present my self unto him4 a lively Sacrifice of thankfulness, and also may in this life fight against Sin and Satan with free and good conscience, and5 afterwards enjoy an everlasting Kingdom with Christ.
