JESUS’S PRAYER IN JOHN 17 WAS FOR THE UNITY OF THE CHURCH. IT APPEARS TO BE UNANSWERED.
HOW CAN WE BE UNIFIED?
-Organizational?
-Ideological?
-RELATIONAL!
WE GET TO ANSWER JESUS’S PRAYER BY EXERCISING OUR SPIRITUAL GIFTS FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE BODY.
YOUR GIFTS ARE NOT FOR YOU.
THE VERY THINGS THAT MAY IRRITATE US ABOUT OTHER BELIEVERS MAY BE THE GIFTS THAT WE NEED THE MOST FOR OUR OWN SPIRITUAL DEVELOPMENT.
16 GIFTS LISTED IN THE NEW TESTAMENT:
ROMANS 12:6-8, EPHESIANS 4:11 and 1 CORINTHIANS 12:4-10, 28
HOW TO IDENTIFY YOUR SPIRITUAL GIFTS:
1. WALK INTO A ROOM.
2. LOOK AROUND.
3. IDENTIFY WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE THAT YOU WOULD ENJOY DOING WITH EXCELLENCE.
CHRISTIAN UNITY IS A POWERFUL APOLOGETIC FOR A WATCHING WORLD IN DESPERATE NEED OF BELONGING.
TAKEAWAY: WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO MAKE NORTHEAST A BETTER PLACE?
NEXT WEEK: CORE 52, CHAPTER 50: SCRIPTURE, 2 TIMOTHY 3:16-17
