How amazing would it have been to be part of the early church? The new adventure of sharing the Gospel of salvation with a world that has never heard of the love and sacrifice of Jesus and the power of the resurrection. Think about it for a moment: every person you meet is hearing the message of hope for the first time.All of this was being done through flawed humans filled with the very nature of God through the Spirit. When we read the descriptions of the early church—the miracles, the sharing, and generosity, the fellowship, the forgiveness of sin, and hope for a future with God—we may wish we could have been a part of this “perfect” church. However, the real reality is that the early church had problems as we do today. Does the church today have problems? Of course, She does, for She is full of sinners.No church has ever been or will ever be perfect until Christ and his followers are united at his second coming. All churches have problems (See Revelation 2:1ff). If your church’s shortcomings distress you, ask yourself: Would a perfect church allow me to be a member? Then do what you can to make your church home better for everyone! A church does not have to be perfect to advance the cause of Christ. We need to be focused on fulfilling the commission Jesus gave us.“And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen. (Matthew 28:18–20)References:John. 7:12Philippians. 2:141 Peter 4:9-----Call us: [email protected] Giving: https://watersprings.net/give.phpServe at Watersprings: https://watersprings.churchcenter.com...CCLI Streaming License: 20080252 Size ECCLI Copyright License: 1406906 Size FDISCLAIMER: Closed captioning and/or transcription is being provided solely for the convenience of our viewers.
