Things to Protect and Preserve

If you are a Christian, you are part of a network of others who need to protect and preserve what has been given you. Preservation of one's ideas, cultures, traditions, or possessions is not what we as Christians are to be doing. This will make us lose focus of Christ as king. Our subculture, ideas, beliefs, goals, nor our denominations should be the king of our life.

We need to focus on Christ's kingdom. We need to get back to discipleship, a disciple is one who follows someone or a learner, in this case Christ. If one is a follower of Christ, obedience to Jesus, evangelism, and discipling others will follow.

Our life needs to be focused on following the two greatest commandments, and making disciples, bringing them into the kingdom. This is the only way we can grow the church and make it stronger.
