His will is not our will. We can't shape God nor understand His timetable. We can't schedule His miracles. His will. His time. I go all over the place yet straight to the point here. Talking about how a church SHOULD be. 1-Wecloming 2-not judgemental 3-forgiving 4-teaching using the Word of God and of the world. 5-Talking TO each other and not about (or if it happens, being the better person by ignoring the talk or rumors). It comes to believers and non-believers alike... WE ARE ALL HYPOCRITES! When we are quick to judge and not love our brethren or socialize or integrate... we aren't connecting to each other, nor really learning about each other, or even at a spiritual level at all. At the point, it is all superficial. If we are stand-offish about our peers, we are not talking to one another or helping one another nor lifting each other with the Word of God. I don't say all this exactly in this podcast/video but it should be heavily implied and implicated. We aren't just coming together to socialize, but to worship His name, to lift HIM up, so we can lift each other up and encourage one another with the Word of the Lord. That is the kind of church we need to be looking for and the family we are looking to not just include, but also love, respect and give encouragement in the Lord. All walks of sinners need to come to the Lord. As the church we need to be letting in the LTBG etc, and the self attracted, and the person, and the thieves, liars, cheats, slanderous, adulterers, and the like. Because believe it or not, that's ALL of us. We all need to understand Jesus loves us all. He is Love. He is patient. He is kind. He is humble. He is gentle. He does not envy. He does not boast. He is not proud. He does not dishonor. He is not self-seeking. He is slow to anger. You are invited. You the weary. You the heavy labored, the lowly, the sinner, the downtrodden, the 1 lost sheep of the 99, the son/daughter that squandered the inheritance are ALWAYS welcomed back into the arms and embrace of Jesus our Lord. We may not always treat each other as equals but as a church of ANY kind, that should be in our top 3 priorities and welcome anyone into the house of the Lord because... we are were lost at one time... The best thing we have to helps move the power of the Lord to keep us on advantage from sin is 1 reading the Word of the Lord 2 learning the Word of the Lord 3 and encouraging each other that are walking in the Lord to keep those around from straying back down that wrong path... ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RBYfOoIuNMg
