Together, We Grow

    I read one of our members statements just now and it made me sad, and I find it funny that they only wanted to associate with people of common faith, those that believed in only what they believed in. JESUS had friends from all walks of life he hanged out with sinners more than those who were religious; in fact, all of his disciples were vile sinners before they became saints, apostles.

    How can you reach those who are lost if you only want to associate with those who are saved? Paul said "I became all things that I may win people to Christ".

    How can you learn and grow if everyone around you believes in the same thing? You need other people opinions’ so that you may strengthen your belief or make you question your convictions in order to bring enlightenment

    They statements made it seemed as though they were better than the rest of us who are trying to serve GOD.

    With LOVE
