What Is Most Important ?

I read alot of debating on forums like this,and I do understand we must know what we believe and why we believe it as Christians.
I also know people are passionate about issues they feel strongly about,but let me ask you a question as Christians what is really most important ?

What causes as believers should we really be devoting our time and efforts towards?

Amen while people in church fuss over things that do not pertain to eternal life,we lose our young people,while many outside of our four walls march to a Christless eternity.

Re: What Is Most Important ?

We should learn to love better, it's the essence of the gospel.

I'm tired of the arguments. I about ready to quit apostolic internet forums except to be a very ocassional lurker.

I don't want to major in minors,I really want to contend for what according to the rightly divided word of God pertains to eternal life and Godliness.

Re: What Is Most Important ?

Please pray for me as I desire to rededicate my life to Christ anew, I want to place emphasis where it should be placed in ministering.

Reaching the lost with the truth.

Hi there Scott,
Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength. My answer for both questions.

Re: What Is Most Important ?

For us personally, the first thing is to seek the kingdom of God and His righteousness - as per Jesus' advice, Himself -- , and TO KNOW HIM. Paul said all else was dung compared to knowing the Lord.

For the sake of sinners, the most important thing is to love one another so that they know we are God's disciples and can THEN reach them with truth.
