What if I was to suggest to you that you join as many churches as you can? After all, where did man get this idea of joining just one church?
We do not practice this in other areas of life. Many of us buy our life insurance, health insurance, homeowners insurance, and auto insurance from different companies because one will offer better services and better rates than another will. Many people will join more than one civic club because of the various benefits they find to each. So why join just one church?
The fact is the Bible says Jesus Christ adds men to the church who have been saved (Acts 2:47). You and I have no business “joining” churches. The Bible does not command it.
That is not to say that church membership is not important. It is! Jesus gave Himself for the church (Ephesians 5:25). He will deliver the church to His Father in the end (1 Corinthians 15:24).
