9 words jumped right off the page as I opened seeing beautiful again.
These days news and truth could also be labeled opinion and fact. Opinions nudge us from the nightly news. If a celebrity name is included it seems to carry even more weight. We seem to get sucked in to what others think, without any substantive basis. For me God's word is the basis.
The ESSENTIAL TRUTH is salvation through the sacrifice and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. Unity must be centered here.Yet, I see disunity even in our churches over non-essentials.....music styles, political "opinions" and worship styles. There is liberty in the non-essentials. Don't judge or condemn these difference. These can vary.
Essentials--UNITY
Non--Essentials--LIBERTY
In ALL Things--CHARITY
Within the body of Christ are believers who desire to please God, not to judge other believers.
Stop focusing on non-essentials.
Start focusing on loving one another and serving one another!
Loving God and serving others well. That's the truth that pleases God!
