Is Christ Divided?
When Jesus Christ came to earth He was not here to build a denomination, He was he to build a church (a body of believers, those that He has saved).
I am sad that what we are now practicing and even teaching from the pulpit is division. As long as you are not my church members I am not your pastor. As far as I am not worshiping in your congregation you are not my pastor, so I have the right to talk to you as I like and even insûlts you.
A few days ago I was scrolling through my Facebook timeline and along the way I say a body of “believers” as I supposed they are, they posted something that was interesting so I didn't mind or look at the group's name, I learnt my voice in the conversation and moved on. Some people responded to what I said also giving their own options which was fine. One even DM me and asked which of their branch I worship with? I let the person know that I don't worship in their congregation.
Today I was so disappointed when I had a notification from the post, when I opened it I saw a comment from a lady who said that they should stop calling me brother because looking at my profile that I am not a - - -(I don't want to mention their name).
As a believer that I am, I see everywhere where the name of Jesus Christ is mentioned and God the Father is worshiped as my home. For those who know my and would love to testify, they would agree with me that there's no church that I am invited before and I go there and behave as a visitor; it's not in my blood. It's now that I a resident Pastor in my church that I don't accept invitations to other people's church gatherings.
When I was in Calabar 11 years ago a friend of mine invited me to her church and when I got there the way I behaved got people talking. I remember that after service one of the Pastor's came to me and told me that he was impressed by how I participated in everything they did as if it was my church. I told him that it doesn't matter where I worship God in, that when I enter any congregation/denomination and I feel the presence of God there, I feel at home knowing that I am in my Father's house.
Why should I be a problem where I worship? As far as I believe in the same God and confess the the Jesus Christ that you claim to follow, why should I not be addressed as a brother? I know you people don't believe in going to heaven but, in heaven there's no denomination, it's only one church. This nansense should stop immediately! CHRIST IS NOT DIVIDED.
What should really matter to us should be if a soul is saved, fed with the word and groomed for spiritual growth.
If the person who suggested that they shouldn't call me a brother since I am not one of them, should boast, I have more things to boast about. I am not a Pastor by recommendation or consideration, I am by divine direction and instruction. I have preach and evangelise and convert many to Christ and they are in different denominations and congregations allover the country and beyond. I won't say because they are not in my church denomination that they are not my brothers and sisters according to faith.
This mentality of everyone else is a sinner and not safe except my church people should STOP already. This is not the foundation that Christ layed down His life to build. Be warned else, you will not near the kingdom of God.
