  1. The scriptures clearly states that the Holy Spirit keeps the unity. However we are to maintain the peace at all cost, this should be our primary goal. The bond of peace is what keeps us together in on accord and that is our Lord Jesus he is our bond of peace.
  2. We are to be humble and gentle and patient bearing with one another in Love. I believe the most important is Love for it is best describes in 1corinthians 13 4-8. All of the above mentioned attributes are demonstrated in Love. When one loves someone they place all their needs before their own needs. If we love God than through the help of his HOly Spirit we must strieve to have that Agape love for our brother/sisters. Humility is probably the hardest we must start realizing that our source for everything is God and there is only one Super -Star in our churches today , and his name is Jesus Christ , King of KIngs and Lord of Lords , Brothers and Sister without Christ we are nothing. May we always show love as our Lord Jesus did .
  3. We are the representatives of Christ we must demonstrate the love of Christ as our Lord demonstrated to us at the Cross. It is probably one of the most difficult things to do with some brothers/sisters is to keep unity but very possible through Christ. We can do all things through Christ who strengthens us. If we can not show unity among ourselves than we are no different than any other social organization. As the body of Christ becomes United we can do the work that God has called us to do which is Evangelize make disciples and win this lost and dying world for Christ.
  4. We should allow the spirit of God to take control of our services, Our agenda should always be God's agenda and not Man's agenda. God is HOly and requires his "temples" to live holy lifes. God's dwelling place is in his children. May we show the Light of Christ in our everyday lifes in our jobs , schools, neighborhoods, homes etc etc..... Lets live our lifes as our Lord intended us to .
  5. The apostles contribute to our lifes today because of their faithfulness to the gospel of Christ we today are the benfeciarys of their wisdom and expierences and most important we are the beneficarys of the holy scriptures of the New Convenant. They were willing vessels that God used to bring forth his message. To the life of our congregation they have left us with instructions on how we should act towards each other and how to live Godly lifes. Jesus is what keeps us all together no matter where we come from race ,nation, status , Jesus is what binds us together. That tie who binds us is our Lord and Savior. He is our glue without him there would not be any church. The congregation grows by prayer studying the scriptures, being submissive to God and the leaders that he has placed above us. Being sensitive to the Holy spirt and allowing the Holy spirt to lead us in everything we do. Having one focus and that is doing the will of God.
  6. It tells us that we as the body of believers are one family, under on father "God". The nature of the church is that just as we are members of an earthly family and we all have different chores and responsiblilities so should it be with the church family. God has given us responsiblilties "the call". He chose us for a purpose. We need to ask God to reveal that calling so we can be functioning in God's family as we should. Gods nature is of loving father and protector and provider of his children. We are to love our brothers and sisters in church as Christ loved us. I come from a family of 5 brothers/sisters and we don't always agree with each other, however when the storms of life come we are there for each other offering all type of support. Sometimes it is very hard to love someone but it is not a choice we have we must love all men. If we love only the loveable what does that show , nothing but because Christ lives in us we can now love, no matter what the circumstances are. Remember if we can't love our brother/sister whom we can see how can we say the love of God is on us and that we love God. We are to gather together in one accord so we can encourge uplift each other etc etc......those who do not fellowship are missing out on many of God's blessings. Its an awesome time when a church can join together and give praises unto the Lord almighty and feel his presence in the sanctuary. God made the church for our benefit.
  7. Why is access to the father important? It is important because it is a priveledge and honor to go before the throne of God, its an awesome honor to be able to go before the throne and enter as a child, not a slave, servant or friend...a child with all rights to the household, when I enter into my parents home I know that I have acess to everything , I don't feel as if I am in a friends home. To be in the presence of God is the most important thing in life because all we ever need is found in Him. To compare this to having diplomatic relations, A person with diplomatic relations has access to that country they are able to sit before the leaders and bring forth there concerns, so it is with us as believers we are able to sit before God our father. How do will obtain the access? The access was obtain through our wonderful Savior Jesus thru his precious blood, our precious saviour reconcile us to God, he loved us and loves us so much that God sent his only HOly Son to die for us even while we were still sinners he pull us out of that pit, he chose us . Thank you my God that you Love me with and everlasting great love.
  8. CHRIST IS OUR HEAD SUCH AS THE HEAD OF THE BODY PROVIDES NOURSIHMENT AND DIRECTION TO THE BODY SO IT IS WITH OUR LORD HE PROVIDES THE CHURCH WITH NOURSIHMENT FOR THE SOUL AND DIRECTION FOR THE CHURCH, WITHOUT HIS GUIDANCE WE THE CHURCH ARE LIKE THE BLIND LEADING THE BLIND. I WAS AMAZED WHEN I READ THIS AND I WAS ILUMINATED BY THE SPIRIT , THAT THE POWER THE CHURCH HAS IS THE SAME POWER THAT "RESURECTION POWER" THAT RAISED OUR LORD FROM THE GRAVE. AWESOME . WHAT A MIGHTY PRIVELEDGE AND RESPONSIBLILTY WE HAVE AS BELIEVERS.
