It also had various Bible verses written on the back also so that ruled out Christian simply being a last name. It got me wondering about what would be Christian Karate? Would it include a &quot;turn the other cheek while delivering a round house kick&quot; move? Would there be various levels of Bible belts from white to black awarded based on scriptural and martial knowledge? Maybe breaking concrete slabs with a picture of Satan on them with you bare hands formed together in the prayer posture. Training could involve carrying a really heavy cross daily to build up endurance.<\/p>\n<p class=\"blog\">Well I should have known it. Before speculating I could have Googled and found the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.christiankarate.org\/\">Christian Karate Association<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"bi\">The Christian Karate Association stresses the importance of having a close relationship with God.

Some of the Character Qualities include: Endurance, Patience, Loyalty, Self-Control and Boldness.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Coming home I was driving behind a truck that on it&#8217;s back window was advertising Christian Karate.
