If we take a good look around, we'd find that aside the violent attacks on Christians all over the world motivated by other opposing religions, using terrorism as a major tool, the Christian body seem to be fighting an unknown yet, very serious battle within itself.
This might sound a little complicated but I pray the spirit help us understand. I stumbled upon a scripture today in Heb2:11-12 where Jesus called us (Believers) His brethren; then I stopped to ponder "Do you know WHO just called you brother?" That's something an ordinary mind will never comprehend. If Christ in the greatness of His might and in the holiness of His holiness could call us brethren, then why do we only see ourselves as brethren just within the church?
This is meant to be a short, straight to the point kinda right up..so here's what I found.. The church have become too consumed with personal needs and drive for successes that we give very little attention to the word. Psalm82:5-7, Romans8:8.
There is nothing wrong with making money; Lord knows I want to make money too but when we become empty of and disconnected from our source, we have successfully laid a carnal foundation, a breeding ground for unhealthy competitions, envy, jealousy, gossips, hatred and so on....
To call a brother or sister whom you have heard terrible things about Brethren, is beyond your will control power. It's supernatural, and only the spirit of God can really help us relate with one another as Jesus relates with us. But that can only happen through consistent study of the word and staying connected. Hebrew3:13
This great house represents the music department of the church, I imploy us to start a movement in the spirit. Let us make room for quality study time before our singing and let's see if our "Love life" will not become extraordinary. Please study Romans 8:1-8.
