A Band of Christian Brothers
Sermon by Ted E. BowlingAs a band of Christian brothers, we are called to face adversities together, united under the leadership of Jesus Christ. Just as soldiers in war depend on each other, we too must trust and support one another in this spiritual battle, understanding the strengths and weaknesses of our brethren. We are not divided but are one body, knit together by the Spirit of God, sharing a bond like no other. Our unity is an honor, paid for by Jesus Christ at a high price, and we are to build bonds of love and unity, not walls of separation or division. God unifies us, transforming us from individuals into a cohesive band of brothers within the church, where each member works efficiently to promote growth. As spiritual soldiers, we are to be of one mind, standing fast together, loving one another, and tearing down walls of animosity. From the moment of baptism, we become brothers in arms in this spiritual conflict, encouraged by the faith God builds in us and ready to serve each other. Despite being separated by miles or isolation, we do not stand alone; we are with each other, and our Savior is with us, calling us to endure hardships together with patience and a vision of the Kingdom of God. Suffering through trials alongside our brethren allows us to grow both individually and collectively, maturing us to become more like Him.
