In his video series "Testing Christianity," Mr. Ron Charles of @Truthunedited makes a number of claims about Christianity and the word "Christian." He says Christianity is against the Bible, that the apostle Peter never wrote the word "Christian" in 1 Peter 4:16, and that Christianity is a corrupted, pagan-influenced "religion of tares." Are any of these claims valid? That's what we test in this video. We also look at some common warning signs of cults.
