If we would all do this , there would be a lot less who condemn Christians. Do you Agree?

To get into heaven we must confess our belief in Jesus Christ, that He died on the cross for our sins. To live a Christian life is to do our best to behave as Christ would, living by His Golden Rule ... Do unto others as you would have others do unto you. If we live a life of loving service to others we are setting the best example of Christianity. Many people are turned off by the "holier than thou" example set by some Christians. That's why we are condemned. Live life like Christ and there will be less condemnation and more believers.

As christians we are required to live according to the way the Bible says to live. Being an example is part of it but not all of it. Live in a way that would be pleasing to God. Everything you need is in the Bible.

No, everyone has a different way of following Jesus and a different idea of what constitutes a good example, you over simplify to the point of making your idea useless.
+ you've got the nutters that use capital letters.

Following Jesus where? Do you mean his teachings? Are you Jewish or Gentile, because Jesus's teachings were meant for the Jewish people, it wasn't until Saul converted from crucifying followers of Jesus to stealing their donations that teaching among the Gentiles gained popularity.

no it is not our only requirement as christians because we are also supposed to witness as said in the great commision. the bible also tells us to feed the hungry, clothe the unclothed, visit those in prison, and love. no i dont not agree with that because if thats all we did we would still be condemned and islamic jihadhist would still try to kill us.

In a perfect world, yes. This isn't one. So you have to keep up the faith...keep growing deeper in your walk with Christ. Walk the walk and talk the talk. That way people will see something different and ask what's up. That'll give you a doorway to start talkin' to them and sharing the good stuff with them.

no. Belief in crucifixtion, resurrection & divine love are most important. But because of that, the love Christ showed us is reflected in our behavior towards others, and as you said, being a good example.

ACTUALLY JESUS SAID TO DO HIS FATHERS WILL. HIS FATHERS WILL IS FOR US TO KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS.
1jo 5:2 By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments.
1jo 5:3 For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.

TRUE BUT THE OTHER REQUIREMENT IS CALLING UPON THE NAME OF JESUS AND BY DOING THAT WE WILL BE SAVED!
