Christianity Today managing editor Mark Galli makes a startling statement: Christians shouldn't imitate Christ. In fact, "unseemly things happen when the culture gets a hankering to be like Jesus." Jesus was the perfect man, and we could ask for no better example. Still, there's a difference between following an example and foolishly attempting to copy the original.
