---------------------
From the bible:
Romans 10:9-10 King James Version (KJV)
9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
There is no association at all between the words. Anybody can be a stoic, anybody can be a Christian, anybody can be both or neither. Except that a stoic can stop being a stoic, but a Christian is a Christian forever.
