The living Church, though never neat, keeps God's world from complete disaster. -Macleod
1 John 1:3, That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.
You don’t have to look around too long before you see how much of a mess this world is in. Abortion on demand, Christians being martyred, good being called evil and evil being called good, women with women, men with men, Gender Neutral, Gender Plural (whatever that is), destruction of property without recourse, theft without punishment, criminals running prisons. Friend, this world is in a mess! In many cases, the church is even in a mess. Yet, it is what keeps the world from being in utter turmoil, turned upside down, and completely going to hell.
But what in the world is going on? One word—sin. The world is growing worse and worse because of sin. That is why we, the living church, need to GET UP, GET READY, and GO TO CHURCH! Will you join me this morning by attending your local body of believers?
