Engineered To Perform

After yesterday’s message with the Preacher using his Harley-Davidson motorcycle as the prop for making a comparison between the engineering which make a Harley do what a Harley does, and that which God does to make His Church do what it is supposed to (accomplish its task), I am thinking I need to get my part RIGHT. If I am really vital to the operation, then perhaps I need to be regular in my attendance, studied in God’s Word, and “prayed-up” as if everything depended on me.

It is vital to know what the Church is designed to accomplish. We may have lost sight of that in the attempt to market the Church as if it were a commodity. Just because it looks pretty or even sounds good, it is not necessarily true that it is succeeding in being the Body of Christ in the World.

Lots of Churches need a “tune-up.” Don’t freelance! Use the manual. Get it right. A correctly engineered Body of believers is an awesome force in a dying world.
