God's Church

Lets talk a moment about the Church. Not your personal church, not the big mega church, and not the small house church down the street. No, lets talk about the "Church"; the one in which all us believers belong. You know, the one Colossians 1:18 tells us that Jesus is "the head of the body."

Jesus' Church... God's Church... Our Church.

In this Church body is a great multitude of believers (and non-believers). It's made up of individuals of every race and color. Spanning from Brazil to India, this true Church of Christ has reached many lost and dying people. How do we know this? In Acts 1:8, just as Jesus was about to ascend into heaven, he told his Church "... you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth." Hold on a second here; read that first part again and pay close attention to Jesus' words:

"You will be my witnesses..."

Not a suggestion, not a recommendation, and not even a command. But a declaration! A declaration of what the Church will accomplish in this age. With such a bold statement made by Jesus Himself, who is the world to stand in our way?

Consider today your place in Jesus' true Church, and the impact you make every day through your life and actions. Remember the one who commanded his Church to go out into the world to be His witnesses. And remember God is with you... every step of the way.

Be blessed today!
