Things will not change until Christians stop arguing about who has the “better” church, who prays the right way, etc.
If God wanted us to all read the Holy Scripture in the same way, he would have made us all the same way.
Many people who believe in Christ come from all walks of life, we live here, they live there. Through different traditional beliefs they have came to know Christ.
Just like in the Bible how everyone who wished to be healed believed it could happen in a certain way,
“Oh how if I can just touch his garment”, “oh if the Lord would just say the word” they all believed in certain ways that He could do it, just like we have all came to Christ in different ways.
Truly, by loving one another of the same core belief, WILL show those who do not believe how GLORIOUS HIS NAME IS.
This division amongst those who believe can be compared to 5 children who are arguing in front of their Father on who loves him more and why.
Everyone thinks they’re a Christian until they see someone else pray differently than they do. Humble yourselves before Christ, and stop assuming other’s relationship with Him.
