A book with practical and pertinent information on Christian relationships in the church. It takes us back to the first-century church and to the essential character of that ancient body. It promotes a different kind of "restoration" among Christians--a restoration of the spirit of the church that Jesus built. When the contents of this book become the contents of our hearts, the body and every member will be as "living and active" as the Word of God that indwells, empowers, and moves them.
What do I do with all the information discussed in One Another Christianity, by the same author? This workbook will help you answer that question. Definitions, scriptures, and questions designed to help you apply the lessons learned from the book to situations in your life.
We need to study and discuss biblical teaching on the subject of division. It is certainly true that God hates division and those who cause division are condemned in the Bible (Proverbs 6:16-19). But is division always wrong? Will "the spirit of Christ" always prevent division, no matter what the issue? Or are there times when division is necessary? If so, how can that be determined and how can one know if he is the cause or the victim of division?
Your reputation is what people think about you (Proverbs 22:1). It iswhat people see about your life. It is the example you set for others. It isimportant to be a good example and have a good reputation (Matthew5:13-16).On the other hand, your character is what you are on the inside. Characteris who you really are. It is who you are when no one is looking. Timothy hadconsistently shown his "proven character" (Philippians 2:22, NKJV). Otherversions (ESV and NASV for example) refer to this as "proven worth." It isthe type of life you have regularly lived and it reveals, in the long term, yourreal value to the Lord.Reputation is what people think you are. Character is what God knows youare.Your character is a matter of choice, not of birth. You can become what youwant to be. You can change parts of your character that are not what youwant them to be.If you do not treat others the way you should, you can change.If you are not morally pure, you can be.If your speech is improper, it can be different.If you need an attitude adjustment, you can do that too.Read 1 Samuel 16:7. As God looks at your heart, what does He see? Is Hepleased? Is He saddened? Does He see someone who is trying to be likeChrist, or someone who is living like the world?Samuel picked David, a man after God's own heart. Does that phrasedescribe you? It could, if you decide you want that.Will you resolve in your heart to do this? Will you be purer in heart? Will youdevelop and grow your character to be what God wants you to be? You candecide to do that right now. Will you?
