I am wondering how you would make it work.

First of all take a look at the Post Interesting.
People all over the world have professed to be Christians but instead they had their own agenda for gaining power. And that power they used to gain more power and to make sure to fill their own pockets.

Secondly I think we shall use our belief in Christ to go out in this world and make a difference that will make God so proud of us, that He points us out and tell others "Look at him, he is one of mine".
Instead of going out in this world with a big neon lighted sign stating that "I am a Christian".

I believe in acting from out of my faith, and leaving the big neon lightened sign behind. Then let people dig deeper to find out what is my source. I am not at all ashamed of my source; my saviour.
But I think we as Christians need to learn, that "Sometimes God's Children should be seen and not heard." (Petra).

Promoting a skill for a certain political job by claiming to be a professing Christian is most likely just words. To say what the majority of the Americans want to hear, so they have a better chance for becoming President of the United States.
What about looking at the deeds done, instead of the words??

Thirdly what is the criteria for being a Christian? There are so many different churches and church denominations in America. And none of them are able to save anyone.
If we make some regulations e.g to follow the Ten Commandments; being against gay-marriages; going to church on a regular basis; reading the Bible on a regular basis; taking part in charity...?

It's all things that just have to be done. Look at the list of points to be checked. Check; check; check. That's easy. Even the Humanists and the Atheists can find out doing that.

In NT somewhere there is an advise of how to elect the Elders for the Church.
"Look at how they are managing their own housekeeping. How is their reputation among their neighbours; being Christians and Gentiles."

What is the drive of your heart. Jesus said that "they paid a lot of attention to giving tenth of everything, but they had forgotten to pay attention to the widow and the orphans." God points that out in OT as well.

We have to learn to pay attention to the heart. Jesus did that to the woman at the well. And to the rich tax collector when he said he would pay back twice what he had been cheating out of people.

I think it's time for the Christians to stand up and speak their heart instead of depending on what others might say and do.
Instead of waiting for the ones in charge, then start do it ourselves.

The unbelievers might outnumber us, but to me we have an obligation to speak out the True. The Kingdom of God is not a democracy as many people believe. It has a King. And He is still in charge.
We might think we can't win, but I read the last chapter. We have won.
