CHECK IT AT THE DOOR
Today's reading:  1 Corinthians 3-4

"...You are acting like people who don't belong to the Lord."  1 Corinthians 3:3 NLT

To think, Paul had enough nerve to speak this to church people.  Gasp!

The ones who know better.

The ones bought with Christ's blood.

The ones whose lives are staked on the truths in the Scripture.

The ones who have been born into, by blood or adoption, God's family.

What were their symptoms?

Jealousy.  Quarreling amongst themselves.

Today it might be comparison issues.  Arguments over the gray areas of the Word.  Music for worship service.  Church budget.  Outreach ministries.

Are we acting like we belong to God?  To each other?  To the world?

It's the Lord's Day, maybe we should check our attitudes and unlovely emotions at the door!
