Thought for the Month

"Thought for Month - February 2012"

"Work out your own salvation with fear and with trembling, for God is at work in you" (Philippians 2: 12)

One of the great things in life is our freedom. Our freedom to live, our freedom to think and our freedom to believe. Within the framework of our christian faith are basic fundamentals, rather like the notes on the printed page of a music score. In order for that music score to come to life a conductor has to interpret it. Using the notes that the composer has written, he interprets the music to his own belief and understanding. In this way each conductor sees the same score from the same notes in a different way. This dear friends is also the wonder of the christian faith. Within the context of christian doctrine, christians all over the world experience and interpret the faith in their own particular way. Hence we have the church universal, each with its own particular emphasis of our timeless and changeless message.
