The meeting of the church leaders
When folks don't belong to your culture but want to accept Christ as their Lord and Saviour should your culture be imposed on them? This is what this meeting is all about. The truth is that miracles were being performed, folks were accepting Christ and the Holy Spirit came upon them to signify a true change in them so why should cultural rules be imposed on them?...because it's tradition!? This is the decision the church leaders are asked to wrestle with
Lord Jesus, you have instilled in us our history; some of it good and some of it bad. Teach us through Your Holy Spirit, what needs to change, what needs to stay the same and what needs to grow bigger. We're living in interesting times in Canada as our history is being presented in a negative light. Help us to wrestle with what we are to do about it. Help us not to reject You as we reject the bad behaviours that have been found in our history and give us Your grace as we work on reconciliation with each other. Amen
