When dealing with truth, let’s major on the major, and minor on the minor.
Even as the pillars of truth in Christian faith have been identified, be loving as we stand firmly on these truth. Love is still the greatest neutralizer and greatest commandment of all.
How do we keep the truth in mind?
Leave our past behind. Dwelling on the things that happened before wont change what happens next. Pursue forgiveness and reconciliation.
Count our blessings. We tend to overlook all that God has given us, lets remember to be grateful.
Be firm in the essentials, and be flexible with the non-essentials. Exercise self control and remember what truly matters.
In addition to the fundamentals, these are the non-essentials that are debatable and subject for discussion:
MINORS
- Timing of Jesus second coming
- Divorce and remarriage
- Church governance
- Style of baptism
- Signs and wonders
- Baptism of the Holy Spirit
- Worship/music approach
- Preaching style
- Days and time of worship
- Appearance, entertainment and recreation.
