2 | Leaving the church mad! | Rev 3:1 | Mommapbs | 84878 | ||
"By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another." John 13:35 It seems to me that your church is not characterized by love for one another, much less even respect! Perhaps a return to the elementary teachings about forgiveness should be considered by the Pastoral staff. Corporate confession should follow personal confession of sin in the church. The members must first recognize the plank in their own eyes before they go about demanding that others remove theirs. (Seems to me that a speck is not what anyone is seeing here!) Jealousy is bred by a desire for approval or belonging from others. And when we don't get what we want, we get mad. But have we forgotten that we already have this (approval and acceptance or belonging) in Christ - seeking it from any one but God is sin! And you are right to be grieved over what has happened to your church as a result. If God has gifted you or granted you a blessing, it is yours. If others are jealous of what you have, it is because they do not realize what THEY already have in Christ - salvation for starters! Love them as Jesus commands. Remember that you are not alone in your hurting. I will pray that God comforts you in your situation and brings about a healing for the ministry at your church. mommapbs |
