Changeless & Change


There is great insight when one can know the difference between what is changeless and what can be changed.  Below is some reflection from the teaching of Dr. John Ed Mathison.  I am grateful for his leadership and time that he has taken to invest in younger leaders.  

What is changeless when it comes to the church?
The Man  - Hebrews 13:8
The Message – John 3:16
The Mission – Matthew 28:19

What can be changed then?
Mindset – Philippians 2:5
Methodology- 1 Corinthians 9:20-22
Ministries – Acts 10:45

Let us not be confused that if we change the things that need to be changed that we are in any way changing the core and fundamental truths about who Christ is, what he has come to do, and now the calling that He has given to us as His body. 

Methodism began as a movement and it has now become a monument... how can we recapture our movement again?
