UNITY IS A MUST ! BY BRIAN LUKE LEEMAN

So for the past few weeks i have had the word unity on my mind .
I have been born again for almost six years , an i have noticed that there is  no unity in the church.
I give God thanks that i have found a Church recently that understands unity .
There so many disagreements in the Church That we have strayed from what God has called us to do: LOVE EACH OTHER AND REACH THE LOST !!!!!

1 Corinthians 12:12-14New International Version (NIV)

Unity and Diversity in the Body

12 Just as a body, though one, has many parts, but all its many parts form one body, so it is with Christ. 13 For we were all baptized by[a] one Spirit so as to form one body—whether Jews or Gentiles, slave or free—and we were all given the one Spirit to drink. 14 Even so the body is not made up of one part but of many.  


I feel if we can let go of stupid stuff we are argue about and come together , we can reach more people who need Jesus.
Here are in my opinion , are  stuff we argue about that doesn't matter.

1.  Clothes /dress code 

This issue has plagued the church for years, an i am so over it !
 This disagreement  on what us as Christians what clothes we should wear has cause unnecessary division !  
Do i believe that are certain type of clothing  Christian men and women should not wear ? yes but it should not  matter if you are a Christian or not when it comes to Clothes ! Final Thought : We need to put this issue to bed !

2.  Music !

Music is another disagreement that has plagued the church. 
 More so lately with worship ,  Why does it matter if the worship team is the latest Worship song from Bethel  or a wo.rship song from the 1950's ?  I don't get why we can't have healthy balance of  both generation's .   The other disagreement us Christians havw when it comes to music , is listening to non Christian music.  Right now i am listening Shinedown's  cover of  lynyrd skynyrd's Simple man , to some Christian's this would be wrong of me to listen to because its not Christian.  Now i am not Judgeing people Who chose to listen to just Christian music, i just think its stupid on how this issue has caused division's between Christians.  Final thought : What Music we listen to , should between God that person ,  The Church has no right to try to condemn people who don't just listen to Christian music . an those who do listen to non Christian music should not make other Christian's feel like crap because they only listen to.


There are so many other issues that are causing unnecessary division in the church but i just wanted provide a couple examples to show if we let go of theses disagreements, we as a Church could be united and be what are called to be.

Theses are just are my thoughts , i hope have stirred up some convos with this post.


"To a true child of God, the invisible bond that unites all believers to Christ is far more tender, and lasting, and precious; and, as we come to recognize and realize that we are all dwelling in one sphere of life in Him, we learn to look on every believer as our brother, in a sense that is infinitely higher than all human relationships. This is the one and only way to bring disciples permanently together. All other plans for promoting the unity of the Church have failed."
