A FULL CHURCH DOESN'T MEAN A HEALTHY CHURCH.
Pwedeng puno ang church pero empty ang mga puso.
Pwedeng maraming tao sa loob, pero kakaunti ang tunay na sumusunod kay Christ. Pwedeng occupied lahat ng upuan, pero empty ang prayer life. Pwedeng loud h worship, pero silent ang obedience. Pwedeng marami ang volunteers, pero kulang ang disciples. And sometimes, we celebrate attendance while ignoring transformation. Ang tanong hindi lang.. lang tao ang dumadalo? Ang mas mahalagang tanong ay..
Ilang buhay ang nababago?
Hindi lahat ng church na lumalaki ay healthy.
At hindi lahat ng church na maliit ay unhealthy.
Because church health is not measured by how many people enter the building, but by how many people are becoming more like Christ.
1 Tesalonica 4:1
4 Kaya nga, mga kapatid, isa pang bagay ang ipinapakiusap namin at ipinapayo sa inyo sa pangalan ng Panginoong Jesus. Sana'y lalo pa ninyong pagbutihin ang inyong pamumuhay ngayon, sang-ayon sa inyong natutunan sa amin, upang kayo'y maging kalugud-lugod sa Diyos.
A healthy church doesn't only produce attenders.
It produces disciples.
People who forgive.
People who repent.
People who serve.
People who love.
People who obey God's Word kahit walang nakakakita.
Kaya church, huwag nating ipagmalaki ang dami kung hindi naman lumalalim ang discipleship.
Huwag nating habulin ang crowd at makalimutan si Christ. Because what's the point of having a full church if we're raising people who are still empty of Christ?
The goal is not a bigger church. The goal is a healthier body. At tandaan...
A full church may impress people. But a healthy church reflects Christ. Hindi naman sinasabing hindi maganda na malaki o marami ang church. That's good actually. Pero dapat we focus on quality and not just quantity.
