Watch the video below, or you can read below too... :)
When we look around our city, we see several churches with different names. The reason behind this, as one pastor told me some time ago, was that there are churches for different purposes.
But that is not at all what Paul says. The REAL reason is because people interpret the bible differently and do not really like to believe that it tells us we need to have all things in common...
Some pastors say that we are allowed to take different views when it comes to the bible. Others say that Paul says we can do this because "each person has an interpretation".
We are not to have different views, or a different understanding when it comes to biblical subjects. Paul says that we are to speak the same things, and have all things the same, and understand what is written.
We were given the tools need to have church services the same all over the globe. We simply refuse to follow these guidelines because of pride. This is important for the longevity of the congregation.
Some pastors say that Pauls talk on the body having different parts gives us the right to have different denominations. This too is utter nonsense. This is about the ability of the believers. Each individual believer. Not the actual church itself.
We need to do things the same in each church. ALL things in COMMON...
