Emperor Nero: I have heard of this new sect that call themselves “Christ-Ones”
Tacitus: Yes my lord, they are turning the world upside down. They are being perceived as being threats to the Roman empire.
Emperor Nero: What do they believe in?
Tacitus: C.I.A. my lord.
Emperor Nero: C.I.A?
Tacitus: Yes my lord, they believe that the Jewish carpenter who claimed to be the Son of God, the messiah –  “Christ Is Alive.” This is their faith, but it is not a dead faith, my lord. Their faith that C.I.A. makes them C.I.A. as well, my lord.
Emperor Nero: I don’t understand.
Tacitus: It is like this, my lord. The faith of the Christians that Christ Is Alive (C.I.A) makes them Christians In Action (C.I.A). They are willing to give their lives for their faith and no lion, wild beasts, or threat of being burnt alive, beheading or even crucifixion will waver their faith that Christ Is Alive. They exercise their faith in action (works), my lord.

1 Corinthians 15:11-14 (KJV)
11 Therefore whether it were I or they, so we preach, and so ye believed.
12 Now if Christ be preached that he rose from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead?
13 But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is Christ not risen:
14 And if Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain.

James 2:17 (KJV)
17 Even so faith, if it hath not works [action], is dead, being alone.
