A Unified Church – Day 4

After this I looked and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and in front of the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in their hands. And they cried out in a loud voice: "Salvation belongs to our God, who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb." – Revelation 7:9-10


Some people from certain denominations believe they’ll be the only people in heaven; but I have a feeling heaven will be a little more crowded than they expect. God’s plan is for unity among all believers, but how do we unify all the different denominations? It’s a lot of work to maintain unity in just one church, much less all churches. Is it really that big a deal? In this passage, we see the end of time. Here’s a picture of the Church as God intends it to be, with believers from all over the world united and praising God together. If this is the plan, then we should already be working on our small part of that unity, as best we can.

Begin thinking about what it will look like for all of is to finally be worshipping together in heaven.

What’s preventing you from working with other believers from other denominations?
