Are We Living the Life We were Created to Live?
Because of Christ we can see things clearly as long as we look through the lens of Jesus and not the lens of tradition and the doctrines of men and devils.
Looking through he lens of Jesus we understand the freedom we have from ideas, philosophies, doctrines and religious obligations. We understand the freedom we have in entering God’s rest and living as a loved child of God and knowing that in Christ we are ALL equal. We understand that although the known “church world” is about the segregation and division of the Body of Christ by their members having to conform to their beliefs, rules and regulations; yet in Christ there is NO DIVISION! Christ is not the author of division of His Body therefore, not the founder of your myriad of “churches” that are in existence.
In the church that Jesus is building there is no spiritual and supper-spiritual, no laity and clergy, no spiritual hierarchy ruling over Christ’s Body. Rather Christ is all and He is in all. He is the vine we are the branches, the same life that is in the vine is the life that is in the branches. It is not only “at the foot of the cross that everything is equal, our entire spiritual journey with God is lived in equality.
If what we are a member of is not providing the freedom to live the way you were created to live…a life lived in compassion, kindness, gentleness, humility, understanding, forgiveness, mercy and love…we are a part of the wrong thing!
We are to be gracefully gracious and loving lovable to the people we interact with, not demanding, judgmental and condemning, rather we are to be understanding of each others weakness as is God with us.
Our life is to reflect God’s heart and His love is to be the living and active force in our lives. Through that love we are to bind together in unity so that the fullness of God’s nature in us, because Christ is in us, unites us in perfect unity.
