United Or Untied? – Bible study

The following article by an unknown author, gives us something to think about as we look at the Lord’s church today:

In proof reading an article for a religious paper, a fellow gospel preacher noted the following error. The sentence read:

“The church was untied.”

It should have read:

“The church was united.”

What a difference between the words! Untied suggests separation the opposite of unity! But the startling truth which impressed the preacher was this: the entire difference was because the letter “i” was out of place.

The lesson is vivid if “I” am out of place in the church program, then “I” am helping make the church “untied” not united.

Each member of the Lord’s church is an “I.” If all the “I’s” are united, we will not be untied.
