Join PD w/ Pastor Chris Franke as they discuss the importance of the Body of Messiah’s return to embracing the diversity of God’s gifts, offices and roles.
Too often, this is what has been witnessed:
To the deliverance minister – everything is a demon. To the healing minister – every disease must go instantly. To the teacher – every issue would be resolved by good scholarship.
Some have thought: “if only we had more teaching on this, we could solve every problem” or “if only prophecy can go forth” “if only speaking in tongues was more accepted” “if only everyone did more evangelism” or “if… if… if…”
If we can all come together, learn from one another in honor, and give each other room to practice their gifts, perhaps then we can see: Eph 4:13 “Until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ.”
Instead of callings being that which divide, rather, let them bring us together. Instead of us maturing in one gift, the Body can mature into the stature of Christ.
Recognizing that it’s not just about us, nor what God called us to. It’s about His greater purposes working together in all His people. Do not let your tunnel-vision cause you to miss God’s-vision happening around you.
