One Body Divided
“The Church is not just divided, but creating division within itself.”
-CRaFt4Christ
We are the spear that pierced His side; we, the members of His body (the Church) have placed division within the Church. (John 19:34)
There are four questions we must ask ourselves before we can take a valid look at correcting the division within the Church.
1) Is the body of Christ (the Church) exercising wisdom through their self-imposed worship, [false] humility, and harsh treatment of the Body? (Colossians 2:23)
2) Is there any value for holding back the constant desires of the corrupt nature within the Church? (Ezekiel 20:44; Matthew 12:33)
3) What does the Kingdom of God look like? (Luke 13:18-21; Matthew 21:33-44)
4) Who shall inherit the Kingdom of God? (James 2:5; Colossians 1:12)
The time is NOW! We cannot be divided–we must not be divided!!
Members of the Body of Christ UNITE!
We, the people of the Church, have placed so much emphasis on religion that we have lost what it means to know our place in the Kingdom of God.
Parable of the Dinner | Luke 16:14-26
But He said to him, “A man was giving a big dinner, and he invited many; and at the dinner hour he sent his slave to say to those who had been invited, ‘Come; for everything is ready now.’ “But they all alike began to make excuses. The first one said to him, ‘I have bought a piece of land and I need to go out and look at it; please consider me excused.’“Another one said, ‘I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I am going to try them out; please consider me excused.’“Another one said, ‘I have married a wife, and for that reason I cannot come.’ “And the slave came back and reported this to his master. Then the head of the household became angry and said to his slave, ‘Go out at once into the streets and lanes of the city and bring in here the poor and crippled and blind and lame.’ “And the slave said, ‘Master, what you commanded has been done, and still there is room.’ “And the master said to the slave, ‘Go out into the highways and along the hedges, and compel them to come in, so that my house may be filled. ‘For I tell you, none of those men who were invited shall taste of my dinner.”
