ISBN: 9781430091950 - a short guide to church: what is it all about? (13 risultati)

Hardback. Condizione: Good. A common claim in modern American Christianity is that you don't have to go to church to be a Christian.

Dean Inserra has often said to his congregation, There is more to being a Christian than going to church, but there certainly isn't less. Belonging to a local church is not something made up by a Christian subculture. The local church was God's design. It is his grand idea to display his glory and provide the avenue for his people to flourish as his missionaries to the world. When one begins to see the church as God's plan, the mindset shifts from going to church in order to claim Christianity to seeing oneself as a participant in what God has given his people as a gift.

Consistent practices that may seem as merely tradition upon first glance, are prescribed by God for his people to practice together until Christ returns. The local church, congregated together, is the Lord's primary plan for discipleship, fellowship, and mission for the Christian life. A Short Guide to Church is not a technical treatment of ecclesiology, but rather a book to put in the hands of every prospective and current church member, to help the body of Christ, expressed locally, to see the purposes and plan of the local church for their life of faith, and why it truly is the best thing going. …
