A loose quote from James McDonald, “don’t deceive yourself into thinking you are alright with God, if it’s not right between you and someone else – or a group of others in your life”. God expects Christians to be agents of Reconciliation – Philemon tells the story – read it and get it right! If there is strife, angst, frustration in your Heart with another Christian, trust me, you are not Right with God. James McDonald says that Reconciliation is at the center of God’s Heart…
For the sake of this discussion “another Christian” is defined as:
Grand Father & Grand Mother
Husband & Wife
Father & Mother
Son & Daughter
Brother & Sister
Uncle & Aunt & Cousin
Fellow Congregant
Best Friend
Close Friend
Not so Close Friend
Distant Friend
Co-Worker
Neighbor
Or – Simply a stranger claiming Christ as their own…
Make Your Relationships work – Seek God’s Face and then, submit, yield and humble your pride and go to that person in your life that the relationship is not right and FIX IT…
We Cling To and Claim God Is Love - Yet, we choose NOT to Love certain people in our lives... Hypocrisy - "yah think"?
If you have His Heart - Show His Love, His Mercy, His Forgiveness, His Reconciliation to Us, and His Restoration of our Spiritual Life from Death...
We are to be Obedient to His Entire Word, not just the parts we agree with. Do you Love Christ, then obey His Commandments and go reconcile with that Spouse, Mother, Brother, Cousin, Friend, Co-Worker or Neighbor you are at odds with. Then Get Right With God !!!
