Finding Unity Within Diversity

By Adrian Rogers “For as we have many members in one body, but all the members do not have the same function, so we, being many, are one body in Christ, and individually members of one another.”  Romans 12:4-5 What goes into assembling a jury for a trial? Typically, the desire is to assemble a group of people who can come together to give a verdict on the decision in question. That’s what our…

Collaborative

The action of working with someone to produce or create something; characterized by or involving cooperation, mutual assistance, and working together towards shared goals.

Romans 12:4-5-For as in one body we have many members do not all have the same function, so we, though many, are one body of Christ, and individually members one of another.

Identify a project or task in your life that could share with someone else. Invite them to collaborate with you, appreciating their input and ideas and sharing the workload and the victories.

Lord, help me to appreciate the power of the collaboration, to value the contribution of others, and to work together for shared goals willingly. Encourage me to lift others and be open to their support.

In Jesus' name, amen.

The New Testament Instructions for the Use of Music in Worship

Today’s Christians are under a strong delusion believing that church worship music is what is being played in many Christian’s airways are the musical praises to Almighty God. Before you can argue with that statement, let’s read the Bible for acceptable references for musical worship. We are now living in this new direction, but many are still worshipping under the laws of Moses. “For Christ is…

But kings and other rulers are instrumental in defining what goes on in their countries. If you look at the shape our world is in, what…

Trusting the Lord in Times of Suffering: An Expository Study of Alma 14

In our journey of faith, suffering can often feel insurmountable. It's in these moments that we must remember Christ's example and His ultimate sacrifice.

Alma the Younger and Amulek are led away from the fire that has consumed the believers in Ammonihah. Suffering is an inevitable part of the human experience, especially for believers striving to walk the path of righteousness. In Alma 14, we find a profound example of enduring faith amidst unimaginable trials. Alma and Amulek faced severe persecution and witnessed the martyrdom of the faithful,…

ENEMY LOVE?

How are Christians to relate to an increasingly hostile and alien culture? Do we respond in kind, fighting for the values we hold dear, or does Christ call us to a better, more productive way?

How are Christians to relate to an increasingly hostile and alien culture? Just as I presented some historical context, let’s broaden our view a bit to gain some important Biblical context.  Up above, we saw through the example of the Old Testament, that despite being God’s chosen people, there were times when Israel disobeyed and in turn suffered calamity and banishment under the just judgment…
