*ARE YOU A SOLUTION OR THE PROBLEM?* (II)
_Key Bible Text:_
*"You who say that a man may not be untrue to his wife, are you true to yours? you who are a hater of images, do you do wrong to the house of God? You who take pride in the law, are you doing wrong to the honour of God by behaviour which is against the law? For the name of God is shamed among the Gentiles because of you, as it is said in the holy Writings."* (Romans 2:22-24 (BBE))
_Bible Insight:_
Are there bad pastors? Yes.
Are there false prophets? Verily
Are there false brethren? Certainly
But for every charlatan, there is a true man of God
For every deceitful worker, there is a genuine pastor
For every place where the word of God is abused, there is a place where lives are being transformed. For every one who called himself, there is one whom God called.
And the ratio is here stated in favour of the former.
God is doing a lot through the church.
People really helped. Lives restored. Families supported. Marriages saved. Youths empowered. The word of God taught. Many many people bettered. Hospital bills paid. Businesses set up. Many mouths fed. Many scholarships paid. Communities impacted. Community service per excellence.
If you find that you don't know or talk about these things but once there is a bad story here or there, an accusation here or there.....then you find your voice
"Ah jus wanto stan for what is right!" "Dis pipu shud be hed akantabu!"
You, even you?! Hmm...Oh child of God!
Is it the church who falsifies arrival time at the office and writes 7:44am instead of 8:35? Is it the church who shunts queues? Is it the church who teaches you to lie to your boss and shortchange your employees? Is it the church that is embezzling company and government funds? Is it the church that should bring up your children? Is it the church that should take in the homeless?
Or is it you? Oh child of God! Are you like Daniel and his three friends who would not defile himself? Or like Joseph who would not sleep with his employer or any woman in the workplace, won't stare at her or him even twice, and flee from any and all advances instead of calling it 'favor"
Or like Esther who fasted and prayed in her high office to overthrow an unrighteous decree Or like Nehemiah who used his office to stand for the people of God?
_MEDITATION:_
*"Because none of these people were Levites or Priests or Pastors or Preachers or any such thing. They were not cell leaders, specially anointed prophets, or missionaries. They were ordinary children of the covenant like you and I."*
