Hi Gary, (& James & others)
Now recently you were talking about the good things of the Lord in the past. Also about the `funny,` or `wrong` beliefs we had. I so identify with what you were saying. We couldn`t wear make up, ear rings or jeans/pants etc. Yet I remember the `glory` times we had, where the presence of the Lord was wonderful & the singing, preaching & prophesying so uplifting.
Now I thought it would be good to share with each other what we see the Lord has been doing in relation to building His Body. We know that we are in unity by the Holy Spirit, yet the unity of our beliefs has yet to come together. And this, `unity of the Faith` is what the Lord has & is doing across His Body over the past 2000 years.
`...till we all come to the unity of the faith & the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the fullness of Christ; that we should no longer be children, tossed to & fro & carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness by which they lie in wait to deceive, but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the Head - Christ.` (Eph. 4: 13 - 15) `
So...What truths do you know that Christ, by His Holy Spirit has brought across the Body of Christ in the past? Now? And then needs to be understood in the future for the Body to come to Maturity?
Looking forward to your thoughtful & insightful answers.
Marilyn.
