Core Practices
Are you all seeking unity in your heart, and having fellowship and conversations with everyone (all races) so we can make Kingdom change? God doesn’t want us to allow the news or personal experiences to isolate or cause persisting hurt and division. But we also can’t be united without addressing issues together. God acknowledges us as an entire person, and Christ-likeness should bear the same.

I’ve noticed it’s the little things sometimes that divide us. Big or little sins from blinders, areas in our hearts that don’t see God’s glories and plans for our different colored brothers and sisters, yet assumes downfalls in seeing color. 🤎🤍I believe we all can gain and be blessed by other races. I believe Black lives do and can contribute a lot to other races also. We’re all appointed in this world together! Let’s search for God’s vision and establish it! To Him, all communities should be loved! We should uplift our Black Communities! Unity that is secure is a joy to look forward to!
I Corinthians 13:5-7 “Love does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.”

He seeks to steal, kill, and destroy while God seeks that people would have salvation and life! (John10:10), and it was important for this topic

So specifically, what is our mission/ God’s mission? (And note God is for
This verse in James calls attention to God’s desire for the care of widows and orphans. But all over scripture God

Put on the full armor of God, and live for His reign and glory! Love Him and love people as He has first loved us!
Scritpture says that we know God’s people by their fruit. We can examine our lives as well by this!
It is not
Luke 6:46 “But why do you call Me ‘Lord, Lord,’ and not do the things which I say?”
Ephesians 6:10-12 “Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.”
