At this Sunday's worship service, we will be looking at the question, "Where is your brother?" This is a question that God asks of Cain after he kills his brother Abel in jealousy. This question that God asks of Cain, God asks of all people. He simply asks it of us in a different reason. Jesus said that the greatest commandments were that we love God and that we love one another. God doesn't ask, "Where is you brother?" because he thinks we murdered someone! He asks because throughout the Bible, God demonstrates the importance of looking out for each other.
The question is not "Who is your brother?". That's simple. We are all brothers and sisters in Christ. We seek to help those who do not know Christ so that they may be our brother or sister. The question is about where they are in our life. When we know where they are, we can act as Christ calls us to act. Come prepared to think about this question. :)
The bible readings for this Sunday are:
- Genesis 15:1-12, 17-18
- Philippians 3:17-4:1
- Luke 13:31-35
I look forward to seeing you at our worship service. Look for your brothers and sisters!
