Amish are not Christians. They are legalists like every religion is without the substitute atonement of God they Christ and His Resurrection. There is NO OTHER NAME in Heaven or in earth, demonstrated by Resurrection and the giving of the gift is salvation by the Spirit. You can't make that happen. You can only express thanks by doing for the One who is Love what He loves to do. Good works can't make up for your natural inclination to disrespect the Creator and your life giver. Without Him we are just trying to imitate His goodness without knowing what that Good really is.

RJ: the Amish who live near me are definitely Christians.
