What is the priority and goal of your faith?  Is your comfort level more important than expanding your faith?  Is your life as real as the central source and focus of existence intended or are you tucked away in a safe nook of humanity, safe from most threats and reality of all others?

Do you attend regular religious meetings with a majority of family and/or friends?  Do you believe that; a distant mission field, standing on a public corner or, going door to door is the most outreaching forms of ministry?  Is it easier for you to listen to commentaries and sermons you have heard many times before than to consider moving on?

God has called every person to fellowship.  However, fellowship is not simply a regular meeting generally with the same people all the time.  The availability of comfortably meeting with familiar people regularly is valuable to newcomers to faith.  But, just as the safety of a tricycle is an asset to a little child, a bicycle is available and the tricycles safety and comfort becomes a hindrance to growth more than a help.

Are you still riding a tricycle, or perhaps the training wheels are still on your bicycle?  Some people are even restricted to bicycles because they can not be mature enough to drive an automobile.  To grow in faith means to leave the third wheel behind, remove the training wheels, and balance your own beliefs.  Far too many religious leaders have continued to ride faith that is dependent on family and friends and promoted others to maintain the same ritual.  It is no wonder that so many people are so immature in their faith throughout life.

If we do not find greater satisfaction in the search for more faith rather than in what we already have, then we have limited faith.  If we do not find more faith in the increasing questions than with the answers we already have, then our faith is not mature.  If we do not realize that there is more to every question and answer we have than we understand, then the god of our faith is something other than the truly unlimited central source and focus of existence.

The ultimate God of existence would not have us be uncomfortable when we are nurtured to grow in faith.  But, God would remove our dependencies as we become balanced and mature in every part of our faith and life.  Constant religious involvement with familiar family and friends is not a goal for the faith driven, only an assurance for moving forward. It is the abilities developed in us to be satisfied with more questions than answers and maintain a lifelong search to better comprehend and understand the central source, focus, and creator of existence that continually matures us.

Maturity is not a state of being; it is a state of maintaining balance in constant change.  So if you feel that your faith is stagnant, if you generally only associate with familiar people, if you're not comfortable with change, if you have lost your interest in building faith, or if you feel like your faith is challenged or un-stabilized by unfamiliar religions or beliefs; then remove the extra wheels, get enthused "when" you fall, and keep on moving on.

God bless you in your search for endless faith.

Ephesians 4:11-20
And he gave some to be apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers; for the perfecting of believers, work of the ministry, edification of the body of Christ.  Untill we become unified in faith and knowledge of the Son of God, to become perfect by measure of the level of completeness of Jesus Christ.
This is so that we will no longer be unstable like children, changing our minds with every type of teaching by the sly words of carnal teachers and cunning tricks they use to deceive.  But they are to promote speaking the truth in love so that you may mature in all things in him; who is the head, even Christ.  From whom the whole body is carefully joined together and tightened by its own willingness, according to how effectively it cooperates between every person increases the body by encouraging each other in love.
I say this before the Lord, that from here on you do not act as unbelievers do by the selfishness of their mind.  Their understanding is clouded because they are alienated from the life of God because of their natural ignorance, and the lack of understanding in their heart:
They are beyond feeling because they have dedicated themselves to filling their selfish desires without shame to outdo others.  But Jesus Christ has been a better example to you.
Unidiversal is all about "evangelism" to share greater faith with anyone who whishes to grow in it,
and encourage believers to share faith with others, like themselves and not alike, free of condemnation.
Currently, there is an important series of evangelistic lessons under development that I would like to share with you.
Click on the Creation image below to see more about the subjects under development with that Trilogy Revival Series.
You are also welcome to visit the Unidiversal Media webpage to check out other pamphlets and media on various subjects.
Maturity is not a state of being; it is a state of maintaining balance in constant change.
