They Shall Know
The Scriptures teach us very plainly, "By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.John 13:35 (KJV) " Jesus again speaks in more than one occasion and gives understanding even as He is preparing to depart, having purchased our redemption and made rconciliation available for everyone, saying that a greater commandment He now leaves with us. That we love one another even as He has loved us and given His life for us.
As we now celebrate the resurrection of our Lord and Saviour, let us not forget His life and the mandates that He left us with. Regardless of the banner on the front of your place of worship, the reformation that you have joined yourself to, or your ethnic differences,there is one Church of the living God. There is one body of Christ and He has called us to one calling. The world is perishing around us while some debate organizational differences. Especially in this season, let's remember Jesus and lift His name to the highest. Jesus came to die in our stead. He suffered for us at the hands of His own creation. While we slept and went on our way throughout the day of His betrayal, He was at a sham of a trial, being whipped without mercy, made to carry a wooden cross to the place of His death, had spikes driven through His wrists and feet, pierced in His side with a spear, and crowned with a wreath of thorns while we slept and went through the course of our normal day.
Let the world see the love of Christ in those who say they have been bought by His blood and are now in fellowship with Him. We are of the same family through His shed blood. We are brothers and sisters havng the same father and being heirs of the same promise. I love all of you, my Father's children.
I pray you God's grace and peace now and always.
