Benjamin Trumbull, a Congregationalist in Connecticut, says real Christians look like Dorcas or the Roman centurion: God-fearing, generous, peaceable, gentle, prayerful, allergic to lawsuits, forgiving enemies, doing good even when abused.

Which does raise a question about modern “Christian manhood™”: perpetually outraged, legally armed, spiritually busy, and oddly hostile to mercy.

How can you fear God and actually do righteousness?
