I WONDER WHY THE CHURCH IS NOT GROWING. Ephesians 4:1-16
Yes, I can tell you many reasons
why the church is not growing but listen to this one: Because, instead of us
building up ourselves to become mature attaining to the whole measure of the
fullness of Christ through using our various gifts or works of service, we use
our gifts or works of service to destroy one another.
We have used and are using God’s
gifts given to us through grace for commerce, personal gain, ego and for
demonic purposes.
Oh God please help your church!
Instead of us to be thinking of how
to grow the church - the body of Christ. But, each time we think of that ‘woman’
or ‘man’ that is always offending us -
on how we many revenge. We think of how we will disappoint the church in other
for them to feel our relevance. (What a stupid mindset)
What a shame!
Oh God help the church!
Instead of humility it is pride,
instead of gentleness we are harsh, instead of patience we are impatient, and
we no longer bear with each other in love. Instead of making effort to keep the
unity of the Spirit all we do is to destroy and break this unity among us.
Nowadays I don’t think if we are
one body, I don’t think if it is one Spirit leading us, I don’t think we have
one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father because if we truly do we
will not be behaving the way we are behaving in the church today.
Oh God help the church!
