UNITED BUT DIVIDED-DIFFERENT BUT THE SAME #1396 / WITH DR GEORGE WATKINS
UNITED BUT DIVIDED-DIFFERENT BUT THE SAME
An old song of the church goes something like this;
"To be like Jesus, to be like Jesus, all I want is to be like him,
All through life's journey from earth to glory, all I want is to be like him."
So far, so good with the song. I do desire to be like Jesus. However, the problem started when I started to believe that my vision and understanding of Jesus were complete. When I do that, I begin to judge others according to my lifestyle and who Jesus is. Then, the trouble begins.
I suddenly become the elder brother laboring in the field, believing that I have a total understanding of what is in the heart of the father. I look across the field of my labors and see my deadbeat brother coming home. He looks like a mess. I'm sure he broke every rule Dad gave him, and I know he spent all his money. So he gets no sympathy out of me.
Well, there you go. Same family, same background, but two different opinions of who the father is.
We talk about unity in the body of Christ, yet without realizing it, we have a preconceived idea of what that unity looks like. Most of the time, it would look like the statement of faith we have in our church bulletin. And certainly look alot like what our denomination believes doctrinally.
So how can we fulfill the Scriptures and actually be one body united around Christ? Paul makes it clear in First Corinthians that we are all many members of the same body. Yet with a different function or purpose. The key to unity is not the doctrine or the revelation you have. It's the Christ in you that makes us one.
As long as we keep our eyes on Jesus, we will never sink into the disagreements and strife that come when we try to unite around the latest revelations and doctrines.
We are, indeed, united but divided-different but the same.
