\n\nWHAT IS THE CHURCH?
From the Scriptures we know the church is His body, His bride, the
people He loved and purchased with His own blood that He sees as
glorious, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing. It is the church
of Christ, the church of God, the house of God, the pillar and ground of
the Truth. It is that which He built and of which He is the Head. It is
the ones He feeds, and walks in their midst, and promises His presence.
It is the place from whose midst He sings. It is the general assembly
and church of the firstborn whose names are written in heaven. It is
that group of people of whom Christ said,\u201cIn as much as ye have done it
to the least of these My brethren, you have done it to Me.\u201dWe see how
important church is to Him. How important is it to you?
