Where is your heart??

Good morning all!! What a wonderful day to be alive in the Lord!! I have a couple of unspoken prayer requests please. God knows the need and will respond, but your prayers are needed.

I Timothy 1:5-6 "The purpose of my instruction is that all believers would be filled with love that comes from a pure heart, a clear conscience, and genuine faith. (6) But some people have missed this whole point. They have turned away from these things and spend their time in meaningless discussions."

What should we have: pure heart clear conscience genuine faith

What happened? We argue about details of the Bible that send us off on irrelevant tangents and we miss the intent of God's message. The false teachers of Ephesus created such diversions. We should allow nothing to distract us from the Good News of salvation in Jesus Christ. This is the main point of the scripture.

We should know what the Bible says, apply it to our lives, and teach it to others. If we do this we should be able to evaluate all teachings according to the central truth about Jesus.

How often do churches split over minor topics, a great tool for satan to work. Let us be strong and forth right in our fight and love for Jesus Christ. Thank you for reading. Love you all.

In Christ's Love and Grace
