Why are we as 'Christians' so concerned and attached to doctrine...why do we, among ourselves, spend time in arguments about church and doctrine...do we think for once that God shall judge us by which doctrine we followed or the church we congregated at?
I constantly use the plural form of we because I have been guilty of this before!
The only thing that will matter in heaven is how we worshiped Him, whether in truth or in spirit and not were. We spend so much time attacking each other, calling each other names and writing books and making programmes about which church/pastor/doctrine is false, JUST WITHIN THE CHURCH...
I mean what example do we set for the lost??? Is that really what Jesus would do? even as we call ourselves 'Christians'? meaning CHRIST-LIKE...?
And whilst we are doing all this, Satan is going behind our backs, sneaking and stealing more people into his kingdom...its time we DROPPED THE SPEAR AND PICKED THE BIBLE!!! I mean imagine if all the time and money we used on attacking each other was invested in reaping the harvest of LOST SOULS...how many people would we have reached with the GOSPEL OF TRUTH? I bet the kingdom of God would be so full, heaven would need space enlarging renovations!!
Indeed Jesus said, "for the harvest is plenty, but the labourers are few." what a shame it is that many of the to-be labourers are poking each other with their sickles.
Oh Lord, remind us of our focus and your number one desire...to seek and save the lost...forgive us for diverting our resources to harm each other...help us O Lord this day, to drop the spear and pick up the Bible...AMEN...
