We Shall All Be As One, In Heart and Mind
I am sharing this with you, only because I hope it will bless your life.
I used to believe that Christian churches came about solely by the invention of mankind, by virtue of the Holy Bible, and that God’s hand was not in their creation at all. I know now that this is not completely accurate.
The types of people who are drawn to these churches, are the people who are more focused on the emotional aspect of feeling the Spirit, whereas a lot of the members of The Church of Jesus Christ, are focused more on the truth aspect of feeling the Spirit. Both are completely necessary and good.
It’s like having a leg that operates on the left, or the love (emotional) leg, and a leg on the right, which operates on the righteousness side, born of truth and justice. They are both needed, and together, they are made perfect. For truth and justice, are not made perfect without mercy and grace (emotion and love), and love, is not perfect without truth and justice.
I like to see it as a female and male counterpart, where both come together in a marriage, and then the two legs can march on together as one.
I’m not speaking of belonging to both the Lord’s church and Christian churches at the same time, for that’s not possible, but I am saying that the truth and love attributes within people are both needed, as pertaining to a fullness of Spirit and truth.
Therefore, says the Lord, in the last days: Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert. (Isaiah 43:19)
My interpretation of this is: The way will be made in the wilderness, with the good people in the Christian churches, finding and joining forces with the Church of Jesus Christ, and the rivers in the desert, shall be that the rivers of love shall finally nourish the people of the Church of Jesus Christ.
These two things shall happen together, and be as one, and it will be the Lord’s doing, for it is only He, who has the power to bring these groups together, to fight against the enemy of all righteousness and love, who is the dragon of perdition.
This will happen by an intermingling of people and their good fruits, such as with service to others, and good media, in ours, and other’s churches. This mingling will help allow people to begin to work alongside each other, helping to break down the walls of separation, and bring understanding, so that the Lord can truly do all His work.
We need to work together, to allow them to see us for who we are, and for us to view them as the good they are, despite their lack of truth. They need us, and we need them.
I believe that The Chosen television series runs in this vein, but it’s like the scripture below says, that the only way to know if something is good, is to come and see.
John 1:45–47
45 Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith unto him, We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.
46 And Nathanael said unto him, Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith unto him, Come and see.
47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!
