May we teach our children that greater than God’s call on our lives to serve Him is His call on our lives to know Him. (Matthew 22:36-40)
10. To think that the church is divided because of denominations, color or culture
The church is not a denomination… it is comprised of those who have been born again and become part of the family of God. Denominations exists for a variety of reasons. Some try hard to stand strong on what they believe the Bible teaches, others hold fast to traditions or family ties… ultimately, none of us can say we are infallible or that we have perfect understanding about every doctrine. And the church is not a divided entity, it is one church and Jesus is the head of the church. Some Christians worship in a specific church because the culture is familiar and comfortable… but color or culture should never divide those who Christ died to make one. (John 17:21)
There are a million and one things I want my children to learn at church – but there are some things I don’t want them to learn.
Do you agree or disagree? Have you seen any of these things that ought not be in the church?
