The Church is not for perfect people.
The Church is for perfecting people.
If you are already perfect, the church is not your place.
The Word of God says about perfecting the saints:
« So Christ himself gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the pastors and teachers, to equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ. Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of people in their deceitful scheming. Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ. From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work. »(Ephesians 4:11-16)
If we were already perfect, we wouldn’t go to the church because we go to church to learn and strengthen ourselves in the things of God.
So, why should somebody condemn us for going to the house of God to learn to be better?
Jesus didn’t say preach against sin, he said preach the gospel.
The gospel brings men out of sin.
If you preach sin they will not come out of it, but preach the gospel, it will bring people out of sin.
PRAYER:
Eternal our God, grant us to always feel the need of being perfected.
It is in the precious name of your son Jesus Christ that we pray, Amen.
