The Church is not something that just popped up after the ascension of Jesus. It did not evolve by followers of Jesus simply coming together to form a community. The organization of the Church did not develop over time. The Church was prophesied extensively in the Old Testament. It is God's plan for redeeming man. It was brought into existence purposefully. In this sermon Gary lays out how the Bible for-tells of the Church and its establishment on the day of Pentecost in Acts chapter 2. He also shows why it is so important to be a member of the Church and how to become a member of it. This sermon is sure to increase your confidence as a Christian or kindly encourage you to become a member of the Church of Christ (Romans 16:16).
