Thermometer or Thermostat

Cool.....I like this blog topic. It is based on a quote by Martin Luther King while in jail in Birmingham. He uses the word "early" when describing when the church was powerful. Isn't' that rue of our relationship's as well.....If we would pursue our wives like we did when we were dating our marriages would be more fulfilling If we pursued God as we did when we were first saved our relationship with Him would be incredible..Now to thermometer and thermostat....Luther describes the early church as a thermostat and today's church as a thermometer....Understanding thermal unit's (BTU's) and how heat transfers is important when working with A/C and heating units....I did this for years...so this one is simple...a thermometer measures and a thermostat changes....As a church we should be the ones actually changing our world instead of measuring what is happening and just talking about the way it should be....
