“Do not be misled: “Bad company corrupts good character.” 1 Corinthians 15:33 NIV "I am the true vine, and my Father is the vinedresser."John 15:1 Application: It’s been said that a church should be like a cluster of grapes, with each grape connected to the Vine, Who is Jesus Christ. This is contrasted to a bag of marbles, in which each marble remains disconnected from the next and not in sync with a central source. Most of us have been in bags of marbles in our time, and not always churches. They may be social cliques, work associations, or school groups. These “bags” may sway our values, words, and actions in ways we really know we shouldn’t follow. We need to seek out good faith partners with each other, both inside and outside of the church building. Find our Vine connections. Prayer: You are our true Vine Lord Jesus, and we want to cluster with other Believers so that we may help each other. Amen. Comments are closed.
