1 Corinthians 3:1 And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual people but as to carnal, as to babes in Christ. ² I fed you with milk and not with solid food; for until now you were not able to receive it, and even now you are still not able; ³ for you are still carnal. For where there are envy, strife, and divisions among you, are you not carnal and behaving like mere men?

God has so much for the body of Christ, but as long as there’s division between us, we limit what God can do through and for us. In the body of Christ alone, we’re divided in our views towards sin and forgiveness, the law and grace, and our biggest division is denominations. It’s not just a difference of opinion. These are divisions where friendships are ruined, people choose to not visit another person’s church, and videos are posted slandering individuals with different views than their own.

What would the world look like if we, as the body of Christ, would be on one accord? How many more people would be saved if we simply preach Jesus?

In Matthew 16:18 Jesus lets us know the gates of hell cannot prevail against the church or the body of Christ. With that understanding, the body of Christ should be dominating the entertainment industry, education, the legal system, and more. What’s stopping the church from dominating even one industry? The division within ourselves. Mark 3:25 says, if a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand. The limited impact we make is because of our division.

Let’s go back to basics of the gospel and preach Jesus loves, Jesus healed, and Jesus saves. Yes there’s more, but if the world can know that, this world could be a better place.
