Spirit And Life Devotional: One Church Of Christ

Must read

Spirit and Life Devotional is a daily publication by Pastor Chinaemerem Ibezim, senior pastor of Able Ministers Chapel, a church based in Calabar, Cross River State.

[pull_quote_center]”While Apollos was in Corinth, Paul traveled through the interior regions until he reached Ephesus, on the coast, where he found several believers.” Acts of the Apostles 19:1[/pull_quote_center]

I like that it says he found several believers. First, it means that they were not his converts. It also means that he saw no difference between himself and them: he embraced them as fellow believers.

Denominations are good, I have nothing against them, I’m a pastor! But you see, we must rise above denominationalism. We can keep our denominations, but it should never be a cause of division or separation among us: no founder of any denomination died for us, only Jesus did, and we are all followers of Christ!

One time, Jesus said to Paul, “Don’t be afraid! Speak out! Don’t be silent! For I am with you, and no one will attack and harm you, for many people in this city belong to me.” Acts 18:9-10. Jesus doesn’t see us in the light of our denominations, no; He sees us all as His people. We are all God’s children; that is everyone who’s genuinely saved: we are one; one church of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ!
