Pictures of the Chruch – Part 2
This message was preached by Colin at Word of Grace on Feb 9th, 2025
The church is the instrument chosen by God to display his wisdom and glory! The early church broke down every barrier. Every culture has barriers to unity. But Christians welcomed men and women alike. The Greeks excluded slaves, but Christians included them. The Jews excluded gentiles and women, but Christians brought them together around the Lord’s table. If you have put your faith in Jesus and trusted in him for your salvation, you are a part of the church. It’s one thing to be placed in the church and then another thing to know how to be in he church.
We are called to unity. Then there is diversity in this unity. Each of us is unique. We are called to be joined together in our uniqueness and to work together.
