More than a Coalition

It's a Coalition!
 
On 11th May 2010 Britain reached a historic point in its history, as the general election resulted in the first coalition government in 70 years. Nick Clegg and his Liberal Democrat party surprised many by opting to form a government with the Conservatives, led by David Cameron.
 
In the six months since then, Westminster has been made to realise that a coalition is never "the best of both worlds" for any party. It is a government of compromise, rather than a government of unity, and both sides have experienced a few painful changes to their cherished policies.
 
The Church of Jesus Christ is not a coalition. The apostle Paul wrote:
 
Therefore if there is any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any affection and mercy, fulfil my joy by being like-minded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind. (Philippians 2:1-2 NKJV)
 
Whatever differences exist within the church, they are insignificant when placed in the light of what God has done for us in Christ. We are part of one body, born of the same Father, with the same Savior, and are all bound for the same eternal home. If the politicians need to get over their differences, Christians most certainly do! Jesus prayed:
 
I pray that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me. (John 17:21 NKJV)
