Episode Synopsis
The Prism: Should a Christian be a Member of a Church?Most evangelicals believe that membership of a local church is a proper course of action for eery believer, so that we are part of a local congregation. We should subject ourselves under the leadership of local elders to be watched over and cared for by them, as a part of a local, organic body. Similarly, most evangelicals will argue that the Bible knows nothing of solitary Christians – they are a contradiction, for becoming a Christian brings us into the body of Christ, which is expressed in the union of local bodies of believers. But is this essential?In this lecture, delivered at Templepatrick Reformed Church in February 2020, we look at the arguments for and against church membership, and ask the really important question, "What if I don't fit in?"Read the TRANSCRIPT HERE.
