The Body of
Christ. . . ?
Is There A
Higher Purpose?
Isaiah 1:11-17

Romans 12:9-21
MSG
Is This All
There is. . . ?
Prayer of adoration and for God’s
illumination so that His Word would be heard through me or in spite of me. . .
I would ask you to rise, as you are
able, for the reading of the Gospel of Luke, chapter 14, verses 15-24. . . listen
to the word from God for you and me, the people of God.
Opening
something and being disappointed. . . Get all geared up for something and let down.
. . Finally get that perfect job and
finding it is not quite as glamorous as we thought. Giving our lives over to
Christ and then being stagnant. . .
When
we gave our lives to Jesus we made an oath with Him to obey Him and all of His
commands and testimonies. . . Now a divine Oath is “The essence of a divine oath is an invocation of divine agency to be a
guarantor of the oath taker's own honesty and integrity in the matter under question.
By implication, this invokes divine displeasure if the oath taker fails in
their sworn duties.” (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oath)”
How
are we fulfilling that oath. . . that Covenant we have with Him with so many
doctrine and rules of our own. . . ? Have we chosen our own truth and not Gods
truth. . . our own interpretation of His Word instead of the truth that is
found in God’s Word. . . what He is really saying to us. . . ?
How would we define the body of Christ? We have
defined it as family. But how we do you and I really define “family?” Try as we
might, sometimes we don’t even come close to how God would define it. We leave
out people who because they don’t fit our idea of family. But truthfully. . . we
are not the ones who define family. . . the Creator of our diversely awesome
family is the One who really defines it. . . our God is the One who gets to
define what He himself created. . . remember “Ohana means family and family
means no one is left out or left behind.” We also came to realize that in order to
become community in the world. . . in order to continue to be relevant we, as
Christ’s followers, need to wake up. Wake from our slumber. . . wake from our
complacency. . . wake from our numbness and see the world and people around us
who are looking for someone to reach out in love, hope and compassion. We need
to decide what is most important in our lives as Crist followers. And we need
to do this together. . . as one family. . . one body of Christ.
1
Corinthians 1:10 tells us “10 I have a
serious concern to bring up with you, my friends, using the authority of Jesus,
our Master. I’ll put it as urgently as I can: You must get along with each
other. You must learn to be considerate of one another, cultivating a life in
common.”
We
are called to love one another. We are called to think the same doctrine. . . the
doctrine of our Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus tells us that the Holy Spirit Leads us
in all truth. It’s not what we think. . . it’s not what “they” think. . . It’s
what the Holy Spirit leads us to which is the truth. But we have this
contention. . . this divide. . . within our church’s. One has one set of rules,
of beliefs. . . the other another set of rules, of beliefs. We seem to think
that we are. . . our church is. . . the better Christian church. This is where
the issue comes in. It’s not about us folks. It is about Jesus and the “great
Commission” that was given to all who would and will believe. As I said. . . we
are called to speak the same truth but no one is. . . no one seems to are.
Romans
12:9-21 tells us:
9-10
Love from the center of who you are; don’t fake it. Run for dear life from
evil; hold on for dear life to good. Be good friends who love deeply; practice
playing second fiddle.
11-13
Don’t burn out; keep yourselves fueled and aflame. Be alert servants of the
Master, cheerfully expectant. Don’t quit in hard times; pray all the harder.
Help needy Christians; be inventive in hospitality.
14-16
Bless your enemies; no cursing under your breath. Laugh with your happy friends
when they’re happy; share tears when they’re down. Get along with each other;
don’t be stuck-up. Make friends with nobodies; don’t be the great somebody.
17-19
Don’t hit back; discover beauty in everyone. If you’ve got it in you, get along
with everybody. Don’t insist on getting even; that’s not for you to do. “I’ll
do the judging,” says God. “I’ll take care of it.”
20-21 Our Scriptures
tell us that if you see your enemy hungry, go buy that person lunch, or if he’s
thirsty, get him a drink. Your generosity will surprise him with goodness.
Don’t let evil get the best of you; get the best of evil by doing good.
1.
Love
from the center of who you are; don’t fake it
2.
Run
for dear life from evil; hold on for dear life to good.
3.
Be
good friends who love deeply; practice playing second fiddle.
4.
Don’t
quit in hard times; pray all the harder.
5.
Laugh
with your happy friends when they’re happy; share tears when they’re down. Get
along with each other; don’t be stuck-up. Make friends with nobodies; don’t be
the great somebody.
6.
Don’t
hit back; discover beauty in everyone. If you’ve got it in you, get along with
everybody.
Definitely
rules we really should live by. These are the things. . . the actions. . . that
bring a smile to God’s face. . . These are God’s Truths from His Word that we
pick and choose to believe. . . the accept as a guideline for our lives.
We
need to wake up to the secure and perfect “doctrine” of Jesus Christ. . . and
see what He would have us do. . . and it can only be found in and through the
Holy Spirit. How we have missed the mark. How God must grieve. God calls us
into unity and Satan. . . the author of division. These contentions. . . this
division. . . are about different opinions. . . man made opinions. It’s the
same type of division that is found in 1 Corinthians 1:11-12. . .
11-12 I bring this up
because some from Chloe’s family brought a most disturbing report to my attention—that
you’re fighting among yourselves! I’ll tell you exactly what I was told: You’re
all picking sides, going around saying, “I’m on Paul’s side,” or “I’m for
Apollos,” or “Peter is my man,” or “I’m in the Messiah group.”
Is
that all there is to the Christian life or is there much more than that? Have
we gone so far from the center. . . where the Truth is found. . . that we can’t
find a way back? Part of our “getting on the outside of our little world” . . .
the world within our walls. . . is to do just that. . . step out. . . step away.
. . from what we have created and go back to the way Jesus created. . .
God
has called all who believe to “the Dinner Party” . . . are we too busy with our
own agenda. . . our own “truth” that we just don’t have time to go? We need to
be lie the servant in the Luke Scripture from this morning. Going out as the
Master tells us and inviting all that we see that haven’t received the
invitation. We need to invite others to the “banquet” of our God and King. The King told to go and get all who look
like they need a meal. He wanted the homeless and misfits invited to the feast.
God wants His house full to over flowing. . . are we. . . His servants. . . doing
what He has commanded us to do or our own thing that has no room for those who
we don’t like for whatever reason that may be. . .
OK.
. . synopsis. . . As we open our hearts and our doors to those who are on the
outside we become family. As we become family we can work together as the body
of Christ. . . as a family of believers who reach out to those who are looking
for someone to grab their hand to pull them out of the vortex they are in. As
we come together the word Ohana becomes our battle cry because no one is left
out or left behind. As we help others our focus is changed and we begin to
think “we” instead of “me”. We begin to see a change happen within our
communities when we begin to define. . . to specify what really matters. As we work together as a church. . . as
churches. . . as extended families. . . as the body of Christ. . . one body. .
. we become one as we do all of this in the name the One who is the heads of the
coin toss of life. . . being the head of the church, our hearts and our minds.
. . our Risen Lord Jesus Christ. . .
I
would like to leave you with one more piece of scripture. . . now I want you to think hard about this
scripture. . . does it really apply to the body of Christ. . . does it
apply to how we act. . . does it apply to you and me? We need to wake up folks.
. . time is getting short. . . will you
be out inviting people to the feast or will you choose to look for a loop hole
in the Truths of God’s word? It is found in the book of Isaiah. . . chapter 1,
verses 11-17. . . I like Isaiah, he told
it how it was. . . no beating around the bush. . .
Read Scripture
Hmm. . . food for
thought don’t you think? We are all going around saying I am from this
denomination or that but the real question is this. . . are you a Christ
follower. . . do you follow what He taught. . . would you follow what He would
do. . . and not some man made doctrine of the church? Who cares what church we go to. . . we are
all the body of Christ. . . different parts of the same body. . . We are all fighting the same battles. We need
to come together because Satan is having a field day when we are apart from on
another. . . severed body pieces. . . Jesus
chose a greater purpose than what the Pharisees had. . . a purpose that set
aside self and embodied others. . . essentially He said “here I am God. . . pick
me”. As a Christian. . . as a Christ Follower. . . what will be yours?
Amen
