Unite

So June 9th 2010 I was at my young adults group and we were studying Philippians. And I came across this,

Philippians 2:1-2 ( NLT )
"Is there any encouragement from belonging to Christ? Any comfort from his love? Any fellowship together in the Spirit? Are your hearts tender and compassionate?
Then make me truly happy by agreeing wholeheartedly with each other, loving one another, and working together with one mind and purpose."

So we have Baptists, Catholics, Jews, Lutherans, Methodists and Christians. We all have the same God but at the same time we separate ourselves. We put ourselves in groups and argue. The Bible tells us to work together with one mind and purpose.

So why don’t we?

Well my theory is that the leaders that formed these groups they based them all off a verse, a verse that they truly don’t understand. Why you ask? Well it’s because they only read the verse they don’t read the whole thing, they pick and chose.
We need to study the word of God and not just take what people say is truth as truth.
We need to stop saying “well my Pastor says or my doctorate says” and start saying my Bible says.

The word is the way the truth and the light and the only way to the father is through the son. The son is the word, “The word became flesh” Jesus Christ.

John 1:1-5 ( NLT )
"In the beginning the Word already existed. The Word was with God, and the Word was God. He existed in the beginning with God. God created everything through him, and nothing was created except through him. The Word gave life to everything that was created, and his life brought light to everyone. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness can never extinguish it."

If this is true and you believe this study all the word and don’t just believe what people say.

“Don’t read the Bible! Unless you’re willing to let it change your life.”
