Christ has taken upon himself to send us the Holy Spirit to help us, look beyond our potential barriers to the unity we are called to enjoy as heirs of his kingdom. Christ did this to unify believers into one family. Believers, must now focus on the cross, and the end result which unites universal believers. That which will allow us, talk about our faith and our Christian convictions as individuals and parents, of the kingdom to others, Christ has intervene on mans behalf for us to understand that we are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, and special possession of God. The nature and service of Christ allows us to clearly declare that we are to praise and make known his name among all nations. By recognizing that we are the light in this mysterious world. Christ is the one who has called sinners out of darkness into his marvellous light. Such privilege given that we may proclaim it to others the good news of salvation. True believers must know that they are part of a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a particular people, and that they have access to God’s special possessions of heaven.
The saints of the universal Church of God have the privilege of proclaiming the praises of the Redeemed who has called you out of darkness into the marvelous light. This description implies an outstanding identity and purpose for those who follow Christ, described as a chosen people, a royal priesthood, and a holy nation, as the salt of the earth. Therefore, we are not called to embrace our own cultural background, and carnal ways of thinking. And if and when we do, it overrides our personal beliefs about God's expectation of us. When believers remain in an attitude of creating a culture that reflects the values and principles of the Kingdom of God. Then we are adhering to the word of God which says, "Have no other gods beside me." This attitude of putting Christ first transcends the divisions and prejudices of worldview.
Let us pray that at the end of this 21-day journey, we will create an atmosphere that bridges the gap between cultural differences and unites people of diverse backgrounds in the kingdom of God. Then the people from diverse backgrounds unite as one in shared identity as children of God with a purpose. The kingdom will prosper. As the Saints pay special attention to the obstacles that prevent the moving forward of the Church. Believers become unified and barriers that separate us from other Christians comes down. Things that many have turned a blind eye to will be revealed through spiritual discerning. Yet, I must say that if we are to accomplish what Christ expects of us, we must face these barriers. When believers stifle the love of Christ with selfish motives, growth stagnates. On the other hand, when we befriend only those with whom we share similar characteristics, how will Christ's universal message to the Church come through?
When believers intentionally ignored the reality of the cost that Christ incurred in breaking down the barriers that allow us to unite as one spiritual family. Christ has even given us the Holy Spirit to help us look beyond our potential barriers to the unify us so, we can all enjoy here on earth God kingdom. Now, for a deep dive, let's focus on the cross, which unites all believers as joint heirs in the kingdom of God. We cannot fail to recognize that building a united church requires the Saints to address all of the above subtopics as barriers throughout this document.
