God wants Unity!




It is unbelievable how much division there is among believers. This is something Paul wrote to the Corinthian Church about and we need to take notice!



1 Corinthians 1:10



10 I appeal to you, brothers, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be united in the same mind and the same judgment.



It baffles me as to why there is so much argument over what the bible says. Most of it is pretty clear. I guess when we have man sticking their two cents worth in there will always be problems. Why can't we just take God's Word for what it says and believe it as truth?



We have so much work to do as the church. Souls are dying and going to hell everyday. I read yesterday that every two seconds somebody dies. As of yesterday around 10:30 a.m. 12,000 people have already died in this world of ours in 2014. Think about how many of those did not know Jesus as Lord and Savior. Guess whose job it is to reach the lost....the churches! We have be come somewhat useless because the lost see that the church can't get along so why do they want to be a part of that! This should not be so!



Now think to inside your own church. How are things? I hope great! If not it needs to be fixed and quick. Your church won't be effective for the kingdom if their is quarreling or division among you. Get it fixed! In love and humility come to a resolution.



The church (believers) is to a representation of Jesus to a lost and dying world. Love, compassion, humility, and unity are all apart of being like Jesus. Loving sinners and trying to help them repent of their sin and come to Jesus is what our main focus is to be, all else is really no importance!



So lets get together as believers. Quit all the divisions and lets get busy for the Lord. If we are busy for the Lord we won't have time for the divisions!
