Are you a wanderer in Christ? By that I mean, did you accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior, go down in the waters and spirit of baptism and then walk off into a spiritual desert? Well, if you did then it is time to come back from where you have been and rejoin the household, and the kingdom, of God. Like our savior, we are not meant to remain alone in the desert... are your 40 days up?
We claim to be brothers and sisters in Jesus Christ, and yet we argue, and even deny one another’s faith. Nothing can destroy an individual congregation, or the greater Church, quicker than if it becomes divided. There are points on which we might disagree, but are they significant enough that we believe that they would prevent us from receiving the promise of eternity? Are we willing to harm the family of God over a childish point, or our own sense of pride and stubbornness?
