    Contributed by Dave Mcfadden on Jun 8, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,290 views

    What does the portrayal of the church being like a golden lampstand say about how God sees His church?

    One of the principles associated with spiritual maturity is that spiritual maturity comes from learning to see things from God’s perspective. When I come to see things as God sees them, it makes all the difference in the world. When I learn to see those without Christ as God sees them, I develop ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,501 views

    Paul tells us how God views His church as being His temple and how this should serve to unify us.

    "To dwell above with saints we love, O that will sure be glory. But to dwell below with saints we know, We; that’s a different story!” Sad to say, the fellowship of too many churches can be described by that little jingle. But while that may be so, it is not what God desires, nor is it what needs ...read more

    based on 1 rating

    Christianity is meant to be lived out in community. We really need each other. This is true for Christians and non-Christians. God has created us both for relationship.

    Love Is Forgetful Series

    Contributed by Paul Green on Oct 28, 2009
    based on 14 ratings
     | 24,698 views

    We often think of forgetfulness as a weakness, as a problem. And more often than not that is true. But there is a time when forgetfulness becomes an absolute necessity. Paul says that ‘Love – keeps no record of wrongs’ He says that love is forgetful.

    In the middle of that list of what love is, Paul says that ‘Love – keeps no record of wrongs’ (v5). In other words what he is saying is that, as well as being patient, and kind and a whole host of other things – love is also forgetful! –‘ Love - keeps no record of wrongs’ Love is forgetful!

    Paul's judgment reveals the redemptive purpose of discipline - for the sinner as well as for the purity and witness of the church.

    Paul, like a spiritual father, admonishes the Corinthians whom he regards as his spiritual children. • He cares for them like a nursing mother and corrects them like a father would, urging them to walk in a manner worthy of God. (cf. 1 Thess 2:7,11) • Paul taught them in word and by his example, ...read more
