Racing Together

In a race, there is only one winner. But in the Kingdom of God, everyone is a winner. If someone stumbles during the race, we should do what we can to help them to the finish line. Galatians 6:1-3 , instructs us to help our brothers and sisters when they fall. This shouldn't be done in a holier than thou manner, because we all at some point have and will make a mistake. This should be done out of love, with words of support and encouragement. Providing continued support, advice, and encouragement is what all believers should do to one another, Colossians 3:16 . When you know that you have people fighting in your corner, who want to see you succeed and experience the best that God has, it gives you more strength to overcome the difficulties you may face in life. Let it be, not just our desire, but also our mission to hold up our brothers and sisters and not pull them down when they are in need. We are running this race together.

A house divided against itself will fall, we can not move forward and rise up against the plans of the enemy if we are working against each other. 2: Worldliness - We are not the same as the world. Material things are a blessing but materialism is worldliness. Wh

Bible Study: Q&A

The questions for this weeks Bible Study are: Q1: Should believers pray for God to kill their enemies? Is this the right thing for us to do or is it seeking revenge? Q2: Should we blame ministers if we or other believers sin or miss the mark because of an incorrect/misleading teaching or instruction from a man or woman of God. We will be discussing these on Wednesday the 4th of July, until then you can comment with your responses. We look forward to reading them. Remember, this is a time for discussion, not debate. Do not pull others down and please express any points of view in a Christ like manner.
