We are called to be one in the Church.
To show exceptance and love not only to other believers, but for the rest of humanity as well.
(Love: 1 Corinthians 13:4-8a)
I've been very...umm... not only fustrated but sad, in what I've seen. Such disunity.
I've been really thinking about this song and what it means....
If we are the body
By Casting Crowns
It's crowded in worship today
As she slips in
trying to fade into the faces
the girls' teasing laughter is carrying farther than they know
farther than they know
CHORUS
But if we are the body
why arent His arms reaching
why arent His hands healing
why arent His words teaching
and if we are the body
why arent His feet going
why is His love not showing them there is a way
there is a way
A traveler is far away from home
he sheds his coat
and quietly sinks into the back row
the weight of their judgemental glances tell him that his chances
are better out on the road
CHORUS
But if we are the body
why arent His arms reaching
why arent His hands healing
why arent His words teaching
and if we are the body
why arent His feet going
why is His love not showing them there is a way
Jesus paid much too high a price
for us to pick and choose who should come
and we are the body of Christ
Chorus (2x)
But if we are the body
why arent His arms reaching
why arent His hands healing
why arent His words teaching
and if we are the body
why arent His feet going
why is His love not showing them there is a way
Jesus is the way

i agree, we need to each step out of our confort zones and put an end to this!
Amen!
If your going to call the church on something you should make a effort to do something yourself..
Just on a curious and not attacking note, what are you going to do about it MJ?
I don't mean for that to be attacking or condenscending in anyway.

Very true Brent, as for what I'm going to do, to be honest I don't know yet.
Waiting for God's direction.
