Showing the truth with a heart of love
Matthew 11:28-30
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me,
for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
There are 2.1 Billion Christians in the world.
The yoke is a wooden structure on the buffalo or ox for controlling them during work.
We must take on the yoke of Christ, so we can be guided by God, learning from His teachings
Isaiah 42:3 A bruised reed he will not break, and a smoldering wick he will not snuff out. In faithfulness he will bring forth justice;
Proverbs 8:36 But those who fail to find me harm themselves; all who hate me love death.”
Psalms 34:8 Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in him.
God wants us to have knowledge and learn so that we can help others.
Proverbs 18:14 The human spirit can endure sickness, but a crushed spirit who can bear?
Even when we are Christians now, we still need to learn and study. How?
The church started with one hundred people.
If there is pride, that is refusal to work with people we do not like.
The church needs unity. Not separation into different groups, with people lobbying around.
When there is pride, people become unteachable and untouchable.
People in this world need God.
Therefore, Christians should have the best relations, and before they go out
to preach the Gospel and spread the Word to the world, they will need to examine themselves.
We should choose what God arranges for us.
For Example if we pick our cell leaders for the group and do not attend when we do not like
a certain leader, we may actually miss out on God`s plans for us.
