Is Christ Divided?

I can't believe it sometimes when we are arguing with each OTHER instead of supporting one another and reaching out to the lost about the Truth. And can only conclude that people are NOT being diligent students of the Word. Maybe they are jumping on the "New Apostolic Reformation" bandwagon and getting into all kinds of prophetic utterances that never find fruition rather than studying and obeying what is taught in the God-breathed living word of God provided in the BIBLE preserved throughout the ages.

Maybe we are being led by circumstances and emotions, I don't know. Now, I do want to learn how to be sweet and kind and loving and accepting and talk about other things than the Word, even though right now God's word is still the most interesting thing I can find to talk about.

I most definitely don't want to be a stumbling block to anyone. But the way I understand this is: The lost are already condemned. We are not. They are already turned off. God forgives us AND corrects us when we're wrong. And yes, we all have a lot to learn about being fishers of men. But God is looking at our hearts. I really believe that. He is granting favor to those who have a heart for Him and He does hear our prayers for our lost friends and loved ones. And He promises to teach us His ways.

I did message one friend who was offended, and thanked him for not unfriending me and asked him to forgive me for "going overboard" but God knows I am not going to be compromising with the Word of God. I believe God knows what He's doing and if I'm a little strong sometimes for some people, well, so be it. 

I do NOT want to be a Bible thumper and beat people over the head with the Bible. I never intended to do that. I just put out a cry from my heart. "Why will you die?," God asked in Isaiah. That was what started it. I have dropped it and pulled back for now. I think it was -- bottom line -- just the enemy trying to stop me from doing what God said do. Didn't he say we were to warn them of the wrath to come?  I think he said that. So, I'm really not going to back down. I'm just going to reposition myself and stay under the shadow of His wings. When he lays something else on my heart to share on Facebook, I will share it. Meanwhile I will pray for them and love them.
