It’s Sunday, lets go to church?
So it’s Sunday and time to go to church. Really? The bible says that born-again believers are the Body of Christ. The Church should not be equated to a building or just a ritual. I’m not saying not to meet together, in fact just the opposite; please meet more and more together! However, the Church should be living an abundant life by loving God and other people; especially our fellow believers. So are we the Church, 24/7:365? Are we loving God and others the way Jesus did?
Lets admit it, we all fail at times. Our priorities get reversed from God’s desire for us. Our perspective narrows to include only our earthly existence: forgetting we are eternal beings, that we are aliens on earth, and that Jesus is coming back soon. We chase what is temporary rather than eternal. We feed our bodies instead of our souls.
We think God’s love is weak that He is unable or unwilling to judge the Body of Christ! How wrong are we! Our God measures the breadth of the Universe with just the breadth of his hand! He holds ALL people accountable, we will all give an account of our time of living on earth after our relationship with Jesus began.
It time to wake up Church! Don’t be lukewarm; as God will spit us out of His mouth! Lets ask forgiveness and pray for a renewing of our spirit in that His will be done and not ours.
So do something incredibly foolish by the world’s standards by faithfully doing what God has put in your heart! Sell your 2nd home & give the proceeds to your church, give your 2nd or 3rd car to a struggling single mom, go pray for the sick in Jesus’ Name, go to the widow’s home at the end of the street and help her keep her home up, and ….
Don’t be like so many in the Church that look to their own interests, rather be peculiar and bold by looking to the needs of others and determine to be God’s hand of mercy and assuring loving voice to those seeking Him and those truly poor.
In short, Be the Body of Christ!
