Follow the bouncing head... of Jesus!?

Pastors and elders have the responsibility of discerning between whether a word or a vision is for the whole Church, or just for that individual person.  During a service one day, a young man approached James Levesque in order to share what he was seeing.

"I'm having a vision... I can see Jesus' head... and it's floating and bouncing around the room."

James internally said, "Ya ya... that's great... go have a seat buddy," gave him a "Thank you, God bless you" and brushed the young man back to the direction of his friends.

After taking a few steps, the young man turned around.

"Well... don't you want to know what he's saying?"

"Sure, humor me," James thought.  "Sure, tell me," James said.

"Well... I see Jesus' head floating over us crying, 'I WANT MY BODY BACK!  I WANT MY BODY BACK!'"

Woah.

It's time for us to cease stopping at false finish lines and camping out on one aspect of Christ... one gift.. one verse... one promise... This only causes division and denominations.  We need ALL of him.  If we were as desperate for Jesus as he is for us, we would be satisfied... and unified.  It's time to give Jesus his BODY back.
