Expect Conflict

Somehow American Christians (I can’t speak for the rest of the world) believe that if they do everything right at church, there won’t be conflict.  I guess this is true, if everyone did everything right.

But, in a fallen world, the reality is the opposite.  When a local church really begins to follow Christ, then they can expect conflict.  It is certain.  In fact, a lack of conflict, may be a warning sign!

Still, when there is conflict some say, “Something is wrong - - we must not be headed in the right direction. . .”
