In the bible we read about a new heaven and a new earth. That is the picture of how a church or a world should look. What are the characteristics?
“The wolf will live with the lamb, the leopard will lie down with the goat, the calf and the lion and the yearling together and a little child will lead them. The cow will feed the bear, their young will lie down together and the lion will eat straw like the ox. The infant will play near the cobra’s den, and the young child will put its hand into the viper’s nest.”
What is God saying here? Different kinds of animals, predators and prey, living together in peace. This is not how things are now. People live in conflict. There are rich and poor. Proud people and people in fear. But isn’t this picture something else? Perfect harmony and friendship.
That is what God wants inside His church. So we are not done here. Even in Light of the Nations where we have many different types of people worshiping together. We can still do better! The bible says we should live in perfect love and harmony. No Jew, no gentile, no rich, no poor, no black nor white. We will all be one in Christ!
In Revelation 21:4 it says there will be death no more. God wants a living church! Not a dead and dry church. Dead churches don’t attract anyone. Live churches do.
God wants to have us live in perfect harmony and love. The He wants to fill us with His word and His spirit so that we can be truly alive.
