A Safe Place
November 6, 2016
That is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.
1 Corinthians 6:11
A young Japanese man had a problemhe was afraid of leaving his house. To avoid other people, he slept through the day and stayed up all night watching TV. He was a hikikomori or a modern-day hermit. The problem began when he stopped going to school because of poor grades. The longer he remained apart from society, the more he felt like a social misfit. Eventually he broke off all communication with his friends and family. He was helped on his journey to recovery, though, by visiting a youth club in Tokyo known as an ibashoa safe place where broken people could start reintroducing themselves to society.
What if we thought of the church as an ibashoand far more? Without a doubt, we are a community of broken people. When the apostle Paul wrote to the church in Corinth he described their former way of life as anti-social, harmful, and dangerous to themselves and others (1 Cor. 6:910). But in Jesus they were being transformed and made whole. And Paul encouraged these rescued people to love one another, to be patient and kind, not to be jealous or proud or rude (13:47).
The church is to be an ibasho where all of us, no matter what struggles or brokenness we face, can know and experience Gods love. May the hurting world experience the compassion of Christ from all who follow Him.
Dear Lord, thank You for paying the penalty for my sins by Your death and resurrection and giving me new life. Help me to live a life that honors Your holy name and to love others as You have loved me.
Only God can transform a sin-stained soul into a masterpiece of grace.
Without the correct biblical frame of reference, 1 Corinthians 6:911 could lead us to believe certain kinds of sins are unforgivable. Does todays Bible reading actually teach that certain sinners are beyond redemption? The answer lies in the contrasting sentence that provides us with a clearer picture of what the apostle is saying: And that is what some of you were [emphasis mine]. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God (v. 11). It is not the committing of sins that condemns irrevocably. It is the continuous lifestyle of sin that indicates a person has not experienced regeneration through faith in Christ.

I'm a little under the weather this evening - my only trip outside was to pick a few items up at the grocery store. It will be another early-to-bed night tonight.

"I Vow To Thee My Country" Choir Of King's College, Cambridge (Click)
"I VOW TO THEE, my country, all earthly things above, Entire and whole and perfect, the service of my love; The love that asks no question, the love that stands the test, That lays upon the altar the dearest and the best; The love that never falters, the love that pays the price, The love that makes undaunted the final sacrifice.
And there's another country, I've heard of long ago, Most dear to them that love her, most great to them that know; We may not count her armies, we may not see her King; Her fortress is a faithful heart, her pride is suffering; And soul by soul and silently her shining bounds increase, And her ways are ways of gentleness, and all her paths are peace."

Shavua Tov, ExTex...
Thanks for the link. It would be so nice to have a CiC that appreciated our honorable troops instead of trying to destroy them.

Oh Boy, an hour of extra sleep tonight. I am going to be out of kilter for over a week now. It will be easier to readjust after the election though.
