Pastor Dewey Note: I have been saying this until I am blue in the face! Just think what would happen if the Church unified into one! The division of denominations is hurting the mission God has given the Church. WE MUST UNITE WITH THE POWER OF GOD AND START MAKING A DIFFERENCE GOR GOD ALMIGHTY! DYNAMITE!!!!!!!!

The Church

The church may be separated into denominations, but there are three things that unify the whole body of Christ.

Ephesians 1:18-23

 

The church is one body, made of all believers in heaven and on earth. There are many denominations and approaches to theology, but Christians are united by a common message, mission, and motive.

 

Message. There are three parts of the church’s primary belief. First, man is sinful and unable to alleviate the penalty of sin. Next, Jesus Christ died on the cross to pay our debt, was buried, rose again, and ascended to heaven. Third, everyone will someday stand before God and give an account for his or her life. At that time believers will take responsibility for what they did with the truth they knew, but unbelievers will answer for their rejection of Jesus Christ.

 

Mission. The church is also united by its goal to spread the gospel around the world and teach new believers how to grow in faith (Matt. 28:19). We do this by telling others about the experiences we’ve had with God and His Word.

 

Motive. The church’s motive is to exalt the Lord Jesus Christ and to glorify God the Father. This should be the driving force behind everything a body of believers sets out to do.

 

Church is not a place where we go to hide from the world—our mission is to spread the gospel to glorify God. There will be varying levels of opposition and persecution, but we stand together as one body and persevere.
