Bible Question:
Acts 2:1 When the day of Pentecost had come, they were all together in one place. (1Co 11:20 KJVA) When ye come together therefore into one place, this is not to eat the Lord's supper. (1Co 14:23 KJVA) If therefore the whole church be come together into one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in those that are unlearned, or unbelievers, will they not say that ye are mad? Is there an emphasis on being together in one place? How would that apply today? |
Bible Answer: Hi, Thomas8! For where two or three meet in my name, I am there among them.' (Matthew 18:20) One place is important--we are called to be one: John 17:21; pluralism is man's attribute. Being in one place (spiritually) is to be at one or to become one. Sadly, the Christian world is not ready for the fullness of Christ. As Paul said: "...for you are still living by your natural inclinations. As long as there are jealousy and rivalry among you, that surely means that you are still living by your natural inclinations and by merely human principles. While there is one that says, 'I belong to Paul' and another that says "I belong to Apollos' are you not being only too human?" (1 Corinthians 3:2-4) Christ warned us of the end of times when there would be a separation among the people: "I tell you, on that ninght, when two are in one bed, one will be taken, the other left; when two women are grinding corn together, one will be taken, the other left.'" (Luke 17:34-36) But it seems that we are too engrossed in our search for the Light (or is it earth bound wisdom that we seek?) that we have lost sight of what it means to be in the Light! Why don't we strive to be in One place? Ego! God Bless! |
