I get your point, and don't want to labor it too much. Just my opinion.

To me, the outward model of WWJD? is like the law. The Christian life is impossible without the life of Christ within us. So we may think about how Jesus would handle a situation and want to do that, but it's only possible by turning to Him and (for instance) saying, "Lord I really want to love this person and care for them, but it's just not in me to do that properly. Lord, you are my real life, so please live and do this through me!" Therefore, WWJD? is like the law: a child-conductor to lead us to the reality of His life within!
It's not a law, it's a reminder, by wearing a bracelet.

Did you ever write a "to do" list or were you ever given a "honey-do" list?

Stop! Tear them all up! You just put yourself under the Law!

I have the mind of Christ! I don't need no list.
