In the modern church, we often value our political party affiliation more than our family. We align more with our cultural associations than our heavenly orientation. This means we're closer to people like us than to those being saved with us. We hate our opponent's party more than the sin in our own lives. Itβs all-consuming because American politics is corrosive.
For the last two weeks, we have been studying the first-century church in Acts 2. These radical inaugural Christians cut out everyone in their lives who were wrong about Jesus. So what did they do? Did they campaign for new governments or secretly plan a revolution? That's not what we read in Acts 2:42-47.
In this lesson, we implore you to look to scripture and realign with your people, your King, and His Kingdom.
