Partners with God.

In Phil 1:3-6, Paul brings out that we are partners with God.  Many times we forget about the unity that we have in Christ and we fight among ourselves.  There was a church in a town that I pastored that had just opened up.  The pastors of the established churches sent a delegation over to the pastor of the new work.  They told him in no uncertain terms that he and his church were not welcomed.  I asked them a simple question when I found out, "What were they afraid of?"  Only ten percent of the town had been reached by the gospel.  The new church was not going after their members.  The pastor of this new church was going after the sinners not the saints.  I worked very hard on his behalf for acceptance into the ministerial.  He was and over time they saw that I was right.  Paul brings out that we are workers together in Christ.  This work of Christ will not be completed until He comes.  We are doing the same work just under different branches.  Don't let anything hinder the unity of the faith.  Your promises are:  Matt 16:18-20, 1 Cor 10:13, Phil 1:6, Ps 34:6, Prov 3:5-6, James 4:7 and 1 John 4:7-8.  Your Insightful Sayings are:  Being a good father is always about who you are than what you give.  Training a child to love and serve the Lord begins with you showing the way,
