Living in Christ

“On this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it.” – Matthew 16:18All of us in the Lord’s church are affected by the prevailing perspectives on what the church is and how it should be led. In far too many instances, the church is assumed to be a human religious organization. It is further assumed that it can be operated by the same human leadership skills used in the world. These are costly errors that come from ignoring what God has revealed in His word about His church. In all matters in the Lord’s church, those who are leading and those who are being led must be totally committed to the Headship of Jesus Christ. We must all look to Jesus to be in charge of every matter that pertains to the church of the Lord Jesus Christ. The ultimate leader of the church is God, not man.
