WEEK SIX: THE CHURCH
DAY # 3: THE FUNCTION OF THE CHURCH
MEMORY VERSE: “ … and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hell shall not prevail against it.” Matthew 16:18
The church’s foundation is our Lord Jesus Christ. We are called to function as the very Body of Christ. Our function is to exalt Him, honor Him and worship Him because of who He is and what He has done.
I Peter 2:9-10 describe this function quite clearly. In that passage the church is called:
A chosen race
A royal priesthood
A chosen generation
A people for His own possession
It says He has “called” us out of darkness into His marvelous light AND that we are to proclaim the praises and excellencies of the One who has done that for us.
Check out I Peter 3:15 ---what does it say about the will of God for our lives?
I Thessalonians 4:7 says we are called unto …. what?
