Newton’s first law of gravity, the Law of Universal Gravitation states that “An object at rest will stay at rest, and an object in motion will stay in motion at a constant speed and in a straight line, unless an unbalanced force acts upon it.” It’s also known as the Law of Inertia. Importantly enough, this same scientific constant applies to the Church. The Church is more than just an institution or organization. The Church cannot be quantified by brick and mortar. The Church, at its base core, is people. Specifically, people united through the blood of Jesus.
1 Timothy 3:15 Paul writes, “but in case I am delayed, I write so that you will know how one ought to conduct himself in the household of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and support of the truth.” The truth is God’s Word. It’s already been given to us. As time continues to swiftly move toward Jesus’ Second Coming, we, as the Church, need to remain in motion and not let the gravity of society slow us in any way. We must continue to be the “pillar and support of truth” against all the distractions the day brings.
