Could you be a little more specific? Or else our answers could become quite lengthy on all kinds of replies. Take care.

Well, okay, in other words,

Is being 'right' what being a Christian is all about?

Short answer, No. Loving God with all your heart and all your sould and all your mind is (to me) what being a Christian is all about.

Living "right" should be a side-effect/desire from our love of God. I find that when I'm trying to live right without praying and loving God, I fail miserably. When I am loving God, I do tend to live right without actually having to strive all the time for it. Granted, I do fail when loving God, but I do not let it get me down and I usually am more worried about praising God for helping me up again. Sorry if this isn't completely well thought out. Take care.

Being Christ means being right. Being a Christian means to follow the Right One.

Man, I must say I have learned a lot from you sincereheart.

Now, on to the discussion at hand. I think a lot of people get right and wrong a little muddied up. They think that what is right by the world should be right by God. Most do this to fit in with what is going on in their lives so as to justify their sin. This is not the case. As the world is rooted in sin, God is rooted in righteousness. To follow God, and to strive to be Christ like with every fiber of our being, to me, that is being right. Or better yet, that is what God is calling us to do and/ or be!!
