Quote of the Day


Not only are Christians to be collective representatives of Christ on earth but also individual representatives as each one strives to be like Him.  That's the key to unity in the church.  If all of us were more like Christ, we' have no problem getting along with each other.  But unfortunately, we are not always in tune with one another because we are not all fully following Christ.    A.W. Tozer (1897-1963) once said that if a hundred pianos were merely tuned to each other, their pitch would not be very accurate.  But if they were all tuned to one tuning fork, they would automatically be tuned to each other.  Similarly, unity in the church isn't the result of running around and adjusting to everyone else.  Rather, the key to unity is becoming like Jesus Christ.

- John Macarthur
