DIVISION AND UNITY IN THIS WORLD

DIVISION AND UNITY IN THIS WORLD


I believe Jesus wanted
To bring a TOTAL UNIFIED
LOVE to this world


And a UNIFYING LOVE
For EVERY person in this world


But what he ENDED up bringing
Was hatred and DIVISION
To this world


NOT because he was
WHO he was
And who he still IS


But because we are WHO
We are=we can't get
ALONG=with the person sitting
RIGHT beside us=or sometimes
Even ourselves


“So a DIVISION
Occurred in the crowd
Because of him


Some of them
EVEN wanted to arrest him
But NO ONE laid hands
On him” John 7:43-44


The crowd was
Having a very DIFFICULT TIME
KNOWING what was TRUE
About Jesus


They were UNCERTAIN with so many
LIES & RUMORS spread about him


And uncertainty brings about POLARIZATION
And conversations become difficult
EVEN among friends and neighbors


But I honestly BELIEVE=Jesus wanted
To bring a UNITY OF LOVE
To the world=among ALL people


“How GOOD and PLEASANT it is
When GOD'S PEOPLE live
Together in UNITY” Psalm 133:1


“I have given them
The GLORY
That you gave me


That they may be ONE
As we are one---------


So that they may
Be BROUGHT to complete UNITY


THEN the world
Will KNOW that
You sent me


And have LOVED them
Even as
You have LOVED ME” John 17:22-23


But there was so MUCH
POLITICAL arguing going on
At the time


A SCAPEGOAT was NEEDED
And it was Jesus


ONE PERSON to
DIE fro all LIVING PEOPLE
One person=
PERFECT in love


“Caiaphas was the one who
ADVISED the JEWISH leaders


That it would be good
If ONE MAN
Died for the people” John 18:14


Jesus was it=Jesus was
The man=put to death
For all of us
For ALL OF LOVE
For all of HUMANITY


“Then one of them=named Caiaphas=
Who was the HIGH PRIEST
That year=spoke up


'You know NOTHING at all!
You do not realize
That it is BETTER for you


That ONE MAN die
For the people than
The whole nation PERISH” John 11:49-50


Even TODAY=we still
ASK the question=
What will END the violence
And RESTORE the community?


LOOK to the CROSS=
OPEN your HEARTS to the LOVE offered=
And you will FIND THE ANSWER in
THE UNITY OF JESUS


In Jesus' name and in the name of GOD HIS LOVING FATHER
