Knowledge Puffs....

I had a conversation  with a co-worker on my lunch break today about different topics regarding the Bible. Lets call this co-worker "johny", not his real name . Hello "johny" if you are reading this. To start off  "johny" and I disagree on several  regarding doctrine and theology. This fact  has been made very evident on several occasions in the past.  And of course through the duration of our conversation today there were a couple of topics that we didn't see eye-to-eye on. AND THATS OK!

I am not saying that we are to except all sorts of strange doctrines. But I must learn to Love those who may not see things the same way I do. Because outside of Salvation by Grace through Faith in Jesus Christ  G-d's one and only Son. Nothing else matters. So as believers we need to stop arguing with one another over dates and facts and be one through Love. For in the place of unity the Lords anointing is released (Psalm 133).   So in closing we draw closer to G-d, the source of Love so  that we may be able to walk in unity with another.

Food for thought: 
1Co 8:1 Now concerning things offered to idols: We know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love edifies. 1Co 8:2 And if anyone thinks that he knows anything, he knows nothing yet as he ought to know. 1Co 8:3 But if anyone loves God, this one is known by Him.

Don't forget to check out the other Blogs I read.
May the name of the Lord be invoked upon you.
