A bridge connects the land it's coming from to the land it's going to. Part of being the Church is building bridges from the generations that were and are to the generations to come. The great commission is going and making disciples which is a bridge from those who have knowledge and wisdom to those who need knowledge and wisdom. 

We suffer at making disciples when we cut or tear down the bridge. Since the completion of Christ's ministry until now there have been tens of thousands of church splinters, factions, groups, and denominations that neglect the high priestly prayer of Jesus to the Father in John 17... one Body, one Bride through separation and isolation. Does the world know that God the Father sent Jesus the Son? Are you sure? Prayerfully consider one of the most important prayers Jesus prays to the Father. The world is watching us. We are those that represent Jesus. Do we re-present Him well?

"I do not ask on behalf of these alone, but for those also who believe in Me through their word; that they may all be one; even as You, Father, are in Me and I in You, that they also may be in Us, so that the world may believe that You sent Me. "The glory which You have given Me I have given to them, that they may be one, just as We are one; I in them and You in Me, that they may be perfected in unity, so that the world may know that You sent Me, and loved them, even as You have loved Me. "Father, I desire that they also, whom You have given Me, be with Me where I am, so that they may see My glory which You have given Me, for You loved Me before the foundation of the world. "O righteous Father, although the world has not known You, yet I have known You; and these have known that You sent Me; and I have made Your name known to them, and will make it known, so that the love with which You loved Me may be in them, and I in them." John 17:20-26 NASB

One Body, One Bride. Making disciples requires bridges from our forefathers. Be a bridge builder we need each other more then we  know. "A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, even as I have loved you, that you also love one another. John 13:34  Food for thought:) Be very blessed:)
