What Could Save the Church Today?
I believe there is one simple phrase that could save the church today and that is “I could be wrong”.
Humility has been lacking in the church for so long that it kills me. I will say this and I want it to be
crystal clear and that is that pride is a cruel master and one of Satan’s greatest tools. We argue far more
than we ever discuss and that I find truly disturbing. Let me tell you Christ is coming back for one bride
not some crazy number in the thousands even more if you count none denominational churches.
We all pray for healing and want to see God work. I know people who have been given a death sentence
live years past the months they were given. It was by the power of prayer and the Holy Spirit. Who cares
how we believe it comes about we all want to see it and believe that it’s possible. Does any one disagree
that God can heal where, when and how He so chooses? Then why do we let the rest get in the way.
Let’s touch on an even more sensitive topic and that is spiritual gifts and why and how they do or don’t
function today. When you get right down to it does it really matter as much as we make it out to be? I have
a friend who isn’t even a friend but a brother who believes slightly differently than I do but we both believe
in Spiritual gifts and that they ageist. Why is it so divisive of an issue today? Does it change salvation, does
it change the power of the Spirit, and does it change the power of the blood onto salvation. Do we really disagree
on what matters the most? No!!! It’s not that massive of a deal we all believe in Spiritual gifts some disagree
on what ones may be functioning today. I may differ from many who read this but I’m not even going to share my
stance because I don’t think it matters enough for some one to judge me. Some who know me are going to be
crystal clear on what I believe and the rest can just wonder because that’s how important I think it is.
Here is another one that we fight like cats and dogs over and that is predestination. Personally I believe that
each and every reader of this piece has earned hell without exception in fact Rom3:23 confirms it, and because
of that God is sending no one to hell we are doing it on our own. This is a point that is so sourly miss when we
start arguing over this subject. And that for what ever reason in God his infonaut wisdom reaches out to those
He predestined before the world became into being on to salvation. And called us for we had no desire for God.
If this is a point of conflict to you check out Eph2:1-3. And that is the essence of Eph2:8-9 for me and the definition
of grace. I am simply spelling out my opiyon put many will disagree and will back there own points with another line
of scripture and I have no problem what so ever just as long as they hold true to the bible and not the reasoning
of man. The point is that from my way of looking at it is I have no way of knowing who the elect are and I have the
same great commotion than any one ells who may disagree so we are all to spread the gospel of Christ crucified.
My point is we disagree on a point of theology not on the means onto salvation or the mission God has given to all
of us lets put away the stupid soap boxes we all get up on and put our feet to the pavement so can hold to out true
purpose spreading the gospel. Remember “I could be wrong” and how it could save us as a church body?
I could go on much longer but I want people to read this. If we can agree Christ died on a cross and rose on the third
day and salvation is by grace through faith, and that is the gospel than we can unite in a powerful way. Our goal
should be to spread that message through out the world but we are to busy arguing to work together. I want to make
this crystal clear again and that is with humility we should be able to say “I could be wrong” because pride is a terribly
cruel master and Satan’s greatest weapon against the church today. So let’s unify the church and wage war with the
devil and not each other. I’ve said more than enough for now, may the Lord bless richly all who read this piece.
