Micah 4-5

It took me about 5 minutes to read through this passage. Toward the beginning of chapter 4 Gosd reveals to Micah the coming power of the Gospel; "Nations will quit fighting each other, quit learning how to kill one another." I saw the fruit of this on a trip to a Christian mission in Austria. It is a place and time when people belonging to former political enemies joined together to worship God and grow in service to each other, and study of God's word. A place where Russians and American hugged one another. A time when people raised under conflicting worldviews join together to celebrate what they havew in common. The key event was the gathering together of believers from 14 countries to worship together and share the one load and one cup of the one body of our one Lord and Savior; Jesus Christ.
