QUESTIONS:
If you were picked up and dropped off in a church that was doing this…would you blend in?
If not, what type of selfishness do you have to repent of in order for you to contribute to this type of unity?
If your fellow Christians friends watched the way you lived and loved…how would they nickname you?
Idolatry is when a good thing turns into a God thing. Is there something that you own that you need to hold with a looser hand?
