The Building Blocks of Christianity.

1 John 1:7
7 But if we are living in the light, as God is in the light, then we have fellowship with each other, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, cleanses us from all sin.

1 Thessalonians 5:11
11 So encourage each other and build each other up, just as you are already doing.


I remember playing with legos as a young one. You can't do much with one lego, but if you have several you can do a lot with them - almost anything. The more legos you have, the more successful and creative you can be. This is also true when you talk about Christians. You won't be able to do much alone, but when you work together with others you can do works of art that are far and wide for God.

Don't just connect to God, connect to others. If such a connection does not exist, we miss so many things. Love, serve, and worship are a few things God tells us to do when we connect with others. These help us to bond and unify as one body for Christ. Christians must connect just like Legos to completely fulfill their purpose. This allows us to build our personal character and the church of God!

“We cannot live only for ourselves. A thousand fibers connect us with our fellow men; and among those fibers, as sympathetic threads, our actions run as causes, and they come back to us as effects.” ~Herman Melville
