And sadly, so much of the world has attached so much biased to the word
Christian, that the entire MESSAGE of the LIFESTYLE and the FAITH of it
has been lost. We've got the resources to bring people together now more
than we ever have before, to unite the
Body of Christ and purify what we stand for - to make our INDIVIDUAL
lives a living testimony to God - but we are so busy arguing among
ourselves the rest of the world rolls this eyes and says "Yea, that's
one hypocritical mess I'm staying out of" when we should simply shush
up, look up, listen up, and move up to what HE said, not what we think!
Yes, I will never apologize for Jesus, but it kills me that so many have
contorted His Image through their own 'Interpretations' - to the point
that Christian is nothing more than a label.
1 Corinthians 12:12-26
12 The body is a unit, though it is made up of many parts; and though all its parts are many, they form one body. So it is with Christ. 13 For we were all baptized by one Spirit into one body-whether Jews or Greeks
1 Corinthians 12:12-26
12 The body is a unit, though it is made up of many parts; and though all its parts are many, they form one body. So it is with Christ. 13 For we were all baptized by one Spirit into one body-whether Jews or Greeks
,
slave or free-and we were all given the one Spirit to drink. 14 Now the
body is not made up of one part but of many. 15 If the foot should say,
"Because I am not a hand, I do not belong to the body," it would not
for that reason cease to be part of the body. 16 And if the ear should
say, "Because I am not an eye, I do not belong to the body," it would
not for that reason cease to be part of the body. 17 If the whole body
were an eye, where would the sense of hearing be? If the whole body were
an ear, where would the sense of smell be? 18 But in fact God has
arranged the parts in the body, every one of them, just as he wanted
them to be. 19 If they were all one part, where would the body be? 20 As
it is, there are many parts, but one body. 21 The eye cannot say to the
hand, "I don't need you!" And the head cannot say to the feet, "I don't
need you!" 22 On the contrary, those parts of the body that seem to be
weaker are indispensable, 23 and the parts that we think are less
honorable we treat with special honor. And the parts that are
unpresentable are treated with special modesty, 24 while our presentable
parts need no special treatment. But God has combined the members of
the body and has given greater honor to the parts that lacked it, 25 so
that there should be no division in the body, but that its parts should
have equal concern for each other. 26 If one part suffers, every part
suffers with it; if one part is honored, every part rejoices with it.
