    Gifted To Grow

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Jan 6, 2014
     | 4,981 views

    God has given the church what she needs. The diversities of talents and gifts are intentional. When everyone serves, the Body of Christ is built up and grows, until we become mature in Christ.

    We are the church. We are the Body of Christ. • By now, I believe you do know that. The church is not a building. It is not even the activities that make the church. It is the people. • You and I form the church. It is not an organization, although it is organized. It is an ...read more

    Unbelievable pain, incredible hurt. Why God? Why? Answers don’t come easily; sometimes they never come. But God wants us to know HIM and our pain drives us to him.

    TAKE IT BACK! One of my all-time favorite movies is Raiders of the Lost Ark, the first film in the Indiana Jones trilogy. I think it’s Steven Spielberg’s greatest work. In the film Hitler’s Nazis have stolen the newly recovered Ark of the Covenant and placed it aboard a German submarine. The Ark ...read more

    Laziness is a rebellion and wickedness and it brings destruction of the temple/body od Christ. As living stones we are called to live, be active in the building and not sit in the wall.

    Laziness Do you like to be called lazy? Of course not. Who would? But would you believe that the Holy word of God calls somebody lazy? Well, it does. So let’s start with pointing our fingers to someone who was described in the Bible as lazy - this is the safe start. Titus 1,12-13 : "Cretans are ...read more

    There are a broad number of people that think, that they have to change themselves because they are cold, but you’re the way God likes. Have integrity if you’re cold.

    Rev. 3:15, 16 When your hands are in the indifferences of this world, everything about them is chilly as a dislike, a cold wave that keeps coming in. You know how a cold wave feels the temperature is lower than normal body temperature. There are no feelings of warmth. Until we have lacking ...read more
