Amazing Facts: An Exemplary Christian: German Chancellor Angela Merkel What Makes You Not a Christian: The New Gospel Revelations Ser (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780692792124)

A foundation of Christianity is the calling to emulate the characteristics of Christ. Jesus was the perfect demonstration of the miracle of life and the example of what we, as Christians, should hope to become with the aid of the Holy Spirit within us.

While their spiritual gift may not have been the speaking of tongues, Chancellor Angela Merkel and many Germans let the Holy Ghost live through them in their response to refugees from war-torn counties. They gave to the needy. They fed the hungry. The words that came from their mouths were spoken with compassion, mercy, and love, extended to strangers who had nothing to give in return. They preached by way of practice and let the Father in heaven live through them on earth.

Despite sporadic terrorist attacks in Germany, Merkel knew that she and other Christians were called to be loving servants in the name of Jesus, even to those whom many feared by association.

All Christians are called to be active participants in living a godly life-not merely onlookers. Be inspired by this story of Germany's real-life demonstration of Christlike compassion and love.
