STICK TO THE POINT

 

 

1 Corinthians 1:10

"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 may be united in the same mind and the same judgment." ESV

Isn't it odd that the Body of Christ, the Church, is divided by differing doctrines, traditions, and interpretations of the Scriptures? If local churches everywhere are preaching Christ crucified and resurrected as our Saviour from sin, why would the Church sacrifice unity for the insistence on a particular doctrine, tradition, or interpretation of Scripture? Think about it. Shouldn't we stick to the point, that is Christ?

Heavenly Father, please help us to get our priorities right and be united in the real purpose of Your Church. We pray in Jesus' name, Amen.

A CALL TO MAGNIFY OUR GOD

Psalm 34:3   "Oh, magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt his name together!" ESV   We all share in the same trials and tribulations of living in this world. We call on our friends and family to talk about the difficulties and challenges we are facing. Wouldn't it make sense that, as Christians, we would call on our brothers and sisters in the Lord to share in the praise and worship of our Lord? Wouldn't it lift all of us out of our own situations and into the presence of our magnificent God? The heart of every child of God is bent toward magnifying the very God who made us and longs to hear our praises.   Heavenly Father, we stand in need of Your forgiveness for getting caught up in the cares of this world; and, for not hearing the call to magnify You, the Almighty, Loving God. Give us hearts of praise and adoration so that we will call on our fellow Christians to praise and magnify You. We pray in Jesus' name, Amen.          ©2013 Daily Grace Bobbi Craigmyle, Psy.D., BCPCC drbobbijo@yahoo.com http://insidetheshrink-dailygrace.blogspot.com/ No Copyright Infringement Intended Personal Use Only

UNITED IN MIND AND SPIRIT

If Christians everywhere were united in thinking and purpose,
the power and love of the Bride of Christ would explode in this
world, breaking through the very gates of hell. Unfortunately,
the Church is busy dividing itself by differing in less important
interpretations of scripture and theological beliefs. Let's all
return to the One important matter: Jesus Christ and Him
crucified!

Read 1 Corinthians 1:10

"I appeal to you, brother, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ,
that all of you agree with one another so that there may be no
divisions among you and that you may be perfectly united in mind
and thought." (NIV)

"Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ,
that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among
you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in
the same judgment." (KJV)
