549 Days Saved - A Walk with Christ
Become all things
To the weak I became weak that I may gain the weak. To all men I have become all things that by all means I might save some. 1 Corinthians 9:22
There is a new rising problem amongst Christians and I am in the forefront of feeling the wrath. What's happening is a separation in the body. It's dangerous and it needs to stop now! We are to blend like the potters clay.
Some Christians point fingers saying, "Nope, Too worldly!" The others point fingers and say, "Nope, Too Legalistic!"
This can't be a right attitude! Jesus came back to dismiss legalism and forgive us when we fall in to traps of worldliness. You see Jesus is that key! The key of love and acceptance! It's beautiful once truly understood and fully embraced!
We are to be in the world but not of the world. So in order to truly lead, inspire and grow love for Jesus sometimes it does take being present in the world to understand what unbelievers are facing. In the Bible Paul talks about becoming all things.
Lets give a simple example: The Holy Spirit may lead a faithful servant of Christ into a non-Christian rock concert but this does not mean he's being worldly or of the world but rather simply being in the world. Becoming all things in order to share Christ's forgiving love and guide hearts to salvation.

The Challenge:
It's time we come together and join elbows instead of finding reasons to unlink and pry ourselves apart from our own heavenly body. The goal is to Stop throwing terms like 'too legalistic' and 'too worldly' at each other but instead trust how the Holy Spirit is guiding each member of the body!
