Why do we resist it?

Why do we find so many who resist God's manifold purpose throughout Scripture to "Be fruitful and multiply?"

Why do so many resist the supremacy of the Great Commission purposes in light of God's manifold purpose which Jesus wraps up following His resurrection?

When did we ever start thinking all Christ followers do not need to nor are gifted to make disciples who make disciples?

When did we ever start thinking that "going" was more important than "being?"

When did we forget that Jesus in us is the only Jesus the world will ever see?

When did Churchianity become more important than Christianity?

I needed to write a short post -so here it is. Any brave ones out there?

I resonate with your dissatisfaction, Bob. In fact, I think many of us do. It's a wonderful first step the Lord has allowed us to take in acknowledging the anemia of our present condition. My burning question these days is, "Will we sacrifice what we must to regain what we have given away?"

Press on, bro. May the love & humility of our Christ fill you & those around you with a new vision for living. Thanks for your post & for this blog. Life & peace.

Why does it seem that the most creative people in our world don't even know the creator?
