Don't Fight, Focus

Good Morning!!  You know we as Christians need to remain focused. We who are to teach the world to love as Jesus taught us, will bicker and fight of the most trivial things. Such as tithes, we know the word says it's to be 10%, and it is to be of your first fruits,...but we debate over whether it's to be of your net or gross.(and most times we're not paying 10% of either.)

It is to one’s honor to avoid strife, but every fool is quick to quarrel.—Proverbs 20:3 (NIV)

A whole lot of arguments among Christians and Non-Christians are just as unimportant,...like which sin is worse, stealing, lying or adultery. Can God make a rock so big that He can't move it?...Paul told Timothy to "avoid foolish and ignorant disputes, knowing that they generate strife" (2 Timothy 2:23). Fundamental doctrines need to be guarded, but arguments about trivialities are not beneficial and only divide us and draw us away from God's purposes for us. Remember to be "gentle to all" and to practice humility (v.24-25). No more silly arguments! —Dave Egner

When we forget our priorities, we argue about trivialities. 

Lord, let our focus forever be on You,...and Your Will. Amen.

" Pharisees learn everything they can about God,...but they never bother to get to know Him."
