USELESS ARGUING

 
 
Titus 3:9


"But avoid foolish controversies and genealogies and arguments and quarrels about the law, because these are unprofitable and useless." NIV


"But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain." KJV


There are so many different traditions, doctrines, and beliefs within the different denominations of Christianity. Unfortunately, many divisions in the Body of Christ exist because Christians defend and argue beliefs that are of really no significance when it comes to sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ and building up the body of believers. These useless differences only serve to distract us from the real purpose of the Church and our Christian walk. If every Christian focused on the Lord Jesus Christ, His Word, and His death and resurrection for our sins, we would be in unity and have far more power to effect this world.


Heavenly Father, forgive us for getting caught up in less important beliefs that are specific to our own local church or denomination. Help us to stay focused on our Lord Jesus and His purpose for us as His children. Help us to seek unity among all true believers. We pray in Jesus' name, Amen.
