| Denominations Some judgemental denominational members are quick to say that other denominations are preaching "another Gospel". But Jesus Christ IS the Gospel! If someone else professes Christ as Lord of their life you should lift them up in brotherly love REGARDLESS of their "denomination". As a Christian you should consider anyone who belongs to Jesus Christ your brothers and sisters. The Bible tells us to rebuke those who fall from the truth. And yes, it even tells us not to fellowship with anyone who preaches another Gospel, but those who profess Christ are NOT preaching "another Gospel"!!! Muslims are preaching "another Gospel". Krishnas are preaching "another Gospel". Buddhists are preaching "another Gospel". Astrologers, pagans, and wiccans, are preaching "another Gospel". The Jews who are still waiting for the Messiah are preaching "another Gospel". Those who say they can be Christians without repenting and turning from their sin are preaching "another Gospel". People who look to Mary rather than Jesus for salvation are preaching "another Gospel". But anyone who has accepted Jesus Christ as Lord of their life IS NOT preaching "another Gospel". Others may not understand the Bible as well as you do, or they may have been taught false doctrines, but are our small differences that seem to divide us greater than our Almighty Lord Who calls us to be one in Him? How long will we continue to allow Satan to divide the body of Christ with issues like denominations, Bible versions, and the pronounciation of divine names? Are our small differences greater than our Great Uniter? Don't we all serve Jesus Christ?....... |
