6 Practical Steps To Create Church Unity

Here are 6 ways that you can create and maintain unity within the church. -No Gossip      If you cannot say anything nice do not say anything at all.  Eph 4:29  Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.      -Be Team Player ..    Its not about the glory…its about serving. 1 cor 10:31  Do all for the glory of God. -Ask better questions      We like to criticize.. We look in and without all the answers we make judgment calls.  ILL: man driving through red light…might be trying to save a life…not just a jerk.      Proverbs 18:13  He that answereth a matter before he heareth it, it is folly and shame unto him. -Forgive First …  Eph 4:32 And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you. -Realize your own flaws … Luke 6:42 Either how canst thou say to thy brother, Brother, let me pull out the mote that is in thine eye, when thou thyself beholdest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of thine own eye, and then shalt thou see clearly to pull out the mote that is in thy brother's eye. -Mentality of Jesus … here to serve.  Phil 2…have the mindset of Christ…talk about on sunday.   Learn to think about others the way JESUS thinks about them…think of your life the way Jesus thought of his life. Mark 10:45 For even the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.
