A Solid Foundation

Jesus only uses the word 'church' twice in the gospels, but those two times are vital to having a clear understanding of what the church must look like. Those two statements also prepare us to see what the one and only mission of the church: to make disciples. Other activities may be tools or just good things, but they are peripheral to the mission Jesus has commanded.

This series through Jonah talks specifically about how today's churches act a lot like Jonah in our attempts at outreach, and our responses mirror his toward people that we deem 'undesirable' for our church. The doors must be open and the Gospel must be preached.

This message looks at four aspects of the Lord's Supper that are critical for a true understanding of it's importance for the called out body of believers. It's a message of love, joy, hope, and reflection.

The calling on the subjects of Jesus' Kingdom is not a calling, to a docile, safe, cloistered Christian life. It is a call to division. It is a call to persecution. It is a call to die. Jesus' people are called to leave everything behind--from friends to family to themselves--if that is what it takes to answer to call of the mission.

This is the first message in a new series, "Jesus' Church," looking at the church in the Gospels. We begin with a few weeks in Matthew and see on this first Sunday that Jesus' Church, Living Called Out, is a Kingdom. Our allegiance is first and foremost to our heavenly King, and not a political party or country. As subjects of that Kingdom, there are certain understandings we should have, and a brief survey of the Sermon On the Mount shows them to us.

Once the lessons have been learned form a church vote, and a decision has been made, what happens next? Some of that depends on the decision made; some of that depends on the lessons learned. However, there are some principles that can guide any church through what comes after. Paul made it pretty easy for us to see.

A lot can be learned from a vote, especially from a vote in church. The results, but also what led to the results, must be examined. That's what this message attempts to do.

In this first message in our Songs for Life series, Psalm 1 clearly presents a choice in life: the way of wickedness or the way of righteousness. We must choose, but the only way to be truly righteous is through a relationship with Jesus Christ. He can make you righteous; you can't.
