Contact without contamination
Hey everybody, good day happy weekend and happy Sunday. Hope we are all enjoying our day
I feel so elevated today which Is something I don’t normally feel, not like my life is dull and sad and boring and I am about to die !! No!! Nothing like that 😂😂 I am just so grateful that I had the opportunity to be In the presence of the most high God.
Which brings me to the reason for this article. The minister today talked about a lot of things, mainly on the topic “the church as an entity” which is basically about the body of Christ on a more universal level. He spoke of the church sighting his example from a tree with huge branches and how we are all connected in the Spirit. Like I said he talked a lot on spiritual connections but one thing he said that caught my attention was when he said
“you can be in a place where Christians would not normally go and still act like a Christian, contact without contamination”
probably not his exact words but that was how I got it which had lead me to think of it on a larger scale. By the way
I am grateful and continue to celebrate this few sponsors I have . Y’all are the real mvp💪
Christ as the tree
The minister spoke about how the church is a universal family and how we shouldn’t talk down other Christians when they “fall”. Back to the topic on ground contact without contamination can be interpreted as so many different things for different situations for most people it might mean just physically touching someone or having physical contact of any form with another person, but for me I believe it means just mere being around a “contaminated person” doesn’t make you contaminated. Notice the quote ? That’s because nobody is in real sense- contaminated as per the context I am Working with; it is just figurative . Now a “contaminated person” in this context might be a bad friend or a bad place; I guess what I am saying is you can be around such persons without actually behaving like them or end up acting the way they do and that is what I think the minister was saying in essence, sure your reason to be around them should be justifiable of course. The reason why I enjoyed this message was because he was able to relate it to our Christian life
Take for example you could be in a club for a business meeting with a client as a Christian that doesn’t necessarily mean you have to drink and get drunk and do some non-Christ like things . You could conduct business and leave immediately. Please I am not in anyway condemning people that club because I club sometimes to just cool off steam I am just sighting a simple example for better understanding.
anyways I learnt quite a lot from today’s service and I just thought I should share some of that with my new family (y’all ) .

True, even when christ was alive he whine and dined with the sinners in order to be able to preach to them. We don't need to join them in sinning but we shouldn't ostracize them either
