Is this a requirement to being a Conservative Christian?

    Conservative is anyone who believes "the right things." But Jesus called us to be radical Christians not conservative. Jesus was not liberal or conservative. You can be liberal and conservative and do nothing. Being radical requires action.

    Absolutely wrong. To be conservative is to believe in conservative things. For example, a conservative will tend to spend money to widen existing roads. A liberal will tend to spend money to build a massed transit system. Neither is right or wrong.
    All true!

    Being Christian requires action. Christ hated lukewarm people which are those that fill the pews every Sunday but then live like the devil the rest of the week. As Christians, we are called to a walk with Him, to a new (born again) lifestyle. If your neighbors and co-workers can't tell that there's something different about you I would question your salvation. (I'm speaking in general not about you gb93433.)
