How Safe Are You?
Good morning and happy Thursday. So is the devil sitting next to you in church? Could be. Is the church a safe place? Is faith in Christ safe so far as we just have it and we're good? No. Paul talks to the Ephesians about unity and building up the church. As we are the church, that means us. We are to be in unity with each other and build one another up. To think that Satan is not tempting you right at the church door if not the pew itself, is not wise. To think that because we are doing all we can to be Christ-like keeps us from needing correction from another is crazy. Many Christians today have a very false since of security in the fact that they follow Jesus so they are covered. Yes to a degree, but as humans we fall and are in need of help from our Christian brothers. And in seeing a brother or sister falling we are to be about helping them without condemning them. This is judgement made in love and out love for God to not let one of His people fall. Yes, God protects but only to a point of letting a lesson be learned from continual disregard to what we know is right. Love each other and get a long with one another so that God is glorified and His church is built up. In love always <><
