I believe the spirit of offence is on the rise. Jesus said in the last days many will be offended as the love of the church will grow cold. (Matthew 24:10)

I see so many people majoring on minor issues such as whether or not we should speak in tongues, whether or not we should baptize babies, whether or not we should prophesy, and a bunch of other stuff that shouldn't be causing us to gossip, get upset, and run off looking for another church.

1 Thessalonians 4 says, Aspire to lead a quiet life and mind your own business.

Simply because every church is made up of imperfect people, there is not a church anywhere where you will find everything to your liking.

I believe the utmost important thing is to know you are a born again child of God and your name is recorded in heaven. If people speak in tongues, baptize babies, or prophesy, so be it. Love them anyway.

If people really want to live the abundant and prosperous Christian life they will have to give God first place in their lives. I believe we do this by loving others and serving them. Not by talking about them, complaining ...
... and criticizing. Jesus said, As you have done it unto them, you have done unto me. (Matthew 25:40)

Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God and keep His commandments, for this is man's all. For God will bring every work into judgment, including every secret thing, whether good or evil. (Ecc 12:13-14)

Don't be too concerned over different denominational teachings. There will be no denominations in heaven. Just people who love Jesus.

God bless everyone! If you know people who are in to gossiping, complaining, and/or criticizing, please love them and pray God will convict them.

That brings it to the point I want to make. Whatever you do, please don't fall victim to the same trap. It's easy to gossip, complain about, and criticize someone who is gossiping, complaining, and criticizing. I know because I've done it. We all want to live an abundant and prosperous Christian life. Aspire to lead a quiet life and mind your own business.
(1 Thessalonians 4)
