Howard King shared The Church at the Cross of Christ's photo. In grace my friends; Have you ever felt alone? I am sure Paul did! Sometimes we need to be alone. We need to be alone so we can be totally dependent on God! So lonely that we have no one to rely on but Him! No one to help us, but Christ! Allowing His love, His spirit, His word, to comfort us! That does not take away from the function of the body, to care and minister to us! It just means that we don't want to be totally dependent on man, but interdependent on the Body and TOTALLY DEPENDENT ON CHRIST! We want to be Dependent on Christ, Interdependent with His Body, and INDEPENDENT OF THE WORLD! ( the worlds sin and function, that is). >Paul lived and preached from this dependent attitude on Christ! >He taught it to the gentiles, the ministry he has called us to! >The fellowship of the Mystery! the un-circumcised THE GOSPEL OF GRACE! And God would deliver Paul, and us to the PERFECT, PRESERVED, PLACE! HEAVEN! At my first answer no man stood with me, but all men forsook me: I pray God that it may not be laid to their charge. Notwithstanding the Lord stood with me, and strengthened me; that by me the preaching might be fully known, and that all the Gentiles might hear: and I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion. And the Lord shall deliver me from every evil work, and will preserve me unto his heavenly kingdom: to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen. 2 Timothy 4:16
