To play Chuch or to be church, that is the question

Sunday May 20th, Acts 16: 16-18 One day, on our way to the place of prayer, a slave girl ran into us. She was a psychic and, with her fortunetelling, made a lot of money for the people who owned her. She started following Paul around, calling everyone's attention to us by yelling out, "These men are working for the Most High God. They're laying out the road of salvation for you!" She did this for a number of days until Paul, finally fed up with her, turned and commanded the spirit that possessed her, "Out! In the name of Jesus Christ, get out of her!" And it was gone, just like that. Let me see, was she baptized before she started yelling that these men worked for the Most High God? Was she born again first? Did she become a member first? Is this one of the gifts of the spirit? All she was, was someone in need. Through the love of Christ, Paul responded and she was set free, much to the irritation of those who thought they could own her. That is our calling also. To set free those who are bound, by what ever it is that binds them. Sometimes we get too busy playing church to be the church.
