Not alone…

We just were not meant to do this life alone… God built us for relationships, and love is the fuel for the relationships we will have in this life.   As we end the week, take time to fuel the relationships in your life.

Jars of clay in their new song speaks of being shelter to each other, and we will never walk alone.

If there is any Peace

If there is any War

We must believe our lives are not our own

We all Belong

God has given us each other, and we will never walk alone.

This is not our Church…

If you read Philter48.com you would have seen this post already.  After my last post on the word Christian, I felt that perspective was needed on who the Church belongs too, and why we as the Body the Bride need to focus solely on Him…

PEOPLE THE CHURCH DOES NOT BELONG TO US!!!!!!

The church belongs to Christ!!!

This week I was having a conversation with some brothers in Christ about having a Christ Centered world view. It was centered around politics. We concluded some things are just not worth debating or arguing about, if they break down the bonds of Christ’s Church.

My comment was. We can’t even agree to Love each other as Christ commanded, how are we Going to Love God the way Christ commanded.  Christ is the unity we should maintain.

In Eph 4: 11-16 Paul writes for the Church of Emphasis what unity in the Church looks like.

Paul in chapter 4 is driving home a huge point. The Church is not for us.  We are to be part of the Church, but in no way does it belong to us.  For the Church to work as it should we must be united under Christ.

We all have a part to play as individuals.

11 It was he who gave some to be apostles, some to be prophets, some to be evangelists, and some to be pastors and teachers,

But it is the people together that will perform great works.  It is the whole sum of the Churches parts working together that will bring about unity in the body. The whole body together completes Christ’s Church.

12 to prepare God’s people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up 13until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.

This true unity, found in each of us working for Christ’s Church, builds us together in unbreakable bonds.  We experience life in this crazy world together, and have brothers and sisters to rely on. When trials and temptation come, the Church is there to stand with us, we no longer stand alone in this world.

14 Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of men in their deceitful scheming.

His truth, His word is our offense. The Church loving on each other, under the leadership of the one who Loves us deep and wide.   His love is what binds us together.

15 Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will in all things grow up into him who is the Head, that is, Christ.

Christ is the foundation, the glue, the magnet that holds the Church together.

16 From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work.

Modern day Soloman…

Tom Brady has it all…But this interview says it all about what he thinks of his success.  He even uses “I think GAA or God it’ got to be more than this”   I have listened to it a bunch, but pretty sure he says God.  Ether way he too is searching.  In all his success, fame and riches, there is something he is missing…. Hmmm…

View’s of God

1 Then the LORD spoke to Job out of the storm. He said:

2 “Who is this that obscures my plans
with words without knowledge?
3 Brace yourself like a man;
I will question you,
and you shall answer me.

Job 38: 1-3
