*STRIVING AGAINST DISUNITY & DIVISIONS IN THE BODY*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office: So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another."* (Romans 12:4-5 (KJV))
_Bible Insight:_
The degree of strong tribalism seen with Christians, especially among pastors, in the way they think and talk, is astonishing. It may stay hidden on Sundays when everyone is in church mode, but comes out when things get personal with them in life.
Pastors who are sound teachers of the word and full of the Spirit who have not allowed the blood of Jesus wash away this illness, are many.
Many of us know of the Azusa Street revival of 1906. God used a man called William Seymour. It was a revival of the baptism of the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues and other manifestations of the gifts of the Spirit.
For several years, people of all races, black and white, men and women, high and low class gathered in the same building on Azusa Street in San Francisco, to experience the love and power of God. Everything men were doing, women were also doing. There was no discrimination. It was a mighty revival that spread throughout the world
Thing is, a few years before when Seymour heard of tongues and desired it. He traveled to a holiness Bible College in Kansas where Charles Parham, a white man, was teaching it. He had to sit outside because he was black. He left without receiving the baptism of the Spirit, but received it later.
When the revival broke out, Parham came down to California to visit and when he was allowed to speak, this man of God spoke against whites and blacks sitting together and worshipping God together. He said it was wrong! They had to tell him to go and not come back.
He was not the only one who thought like that. Most white preachers who were supposedly filled with the Holy Spirit could not overcome racism. This things were amazing to read. That at the height of spiritual atmospheres, strong carnality could thrive.
_MEDITATION:_
*Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good. Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another.* (Romans 12:9-10 (KJV))
