Did Ambrose Bierce hit the nail on the head when he defined the word, Christian?

CHRISTIAN, n. One who believes that the New Testament is a divinely inspired book admirably suited to the spiritual needs of his neighbor. One who follows the teachings of Christ in so far as they are not inconsistent with a life of sin.

Ambrose Bierce hit EVERYthing on the head with the Devil's Dictionary! Hilarious book!Did Ambrose Bierce hit the nail on the head when he defined the word, Christian?
The first sentence is interesting. Christians think theri doctrine is talking about everyone else! Ha Dee Ha!

Carpenter Jesus plus Joseph would agree, i think.Respectfully saying. GIving them credit , not scorning.
That's funny and The Devil's Dictionary is awesome for entertainment purposes but I bet Ambrose is not happy burning in hell right now.
