The Body of Christ Needs a Software Update on Getting Along with Each Other
We are the body of Christ and Jesus is the Head as most of us know. In His body are many members as the bible says. Each one has a different calling, purpose and destiny. We cannot afford to have discord or division amongst us because together we are a mighty force for the Lord in the earth. To divide and conquer has always been the enemy’s motive against mankind, because if we the body of Christ, were on the same page in most of our endeavors for the Lord, the rapture would occur sooner. Getting christians to work together has always been a challenge for the body of Christ. In many cases we have our own idea of how things should go, but we should seek the Lord’s way concerning how things should go. In all our ways acknowledge God, and He will direct us to the path we should take. We may even be persecuted by the church for following God’s way of how we perform our individual tasks for God. There’s no way you can know what the Lord has told me to do for Him, it wasn’t a conference call. So when you get persecuted by the church for doing what God told you to do, and how He told you to do it don’t be surprised, it just means you’re on track. But know you are hearing from God and not someone else. We should be connected to the body of Christ to the point that if one member suffers, the whole body suffers with it. If one member is honored, we all should honor him and his achievements for the Lord. But backbiting and itchy ears for gossip and drama has taken the place of love for our fellow saints.
