Christianity has been made to be overly individualized in the last 75 years. We talk about personal faith. We claim Jesus as personal Lord and Savior. We have personal prayer lives and personal ministries. It seems that we have sacrificed the big-picture components of Christianity on the narrow altar of what it means personally to each of us. God’s word is clear that Christianity is a group-event. We are meant to do life together - and all the more as we approach the end of the age. Much strength is gained when the many function as one. We are together a family, an army, a team, and a spiritual organism. This message reminds us of what God does when we not only embrace Him, but one another. If we fail to do so, we forfeit some components of Christianity that we cannot survive without.
