Welcome at Lits Church;
By; Pstr Ivan
Why does the church exist?
Matt. 28 Verses 19 to 20
[19] Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, [20] teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, to the close of the age.
You and me are as a result of the preaching of the disciples.... PREACHING ABOUT JESUS CHRIST.
preaching the word of God is not for ONLY THE PASTOR BUT FOR EVERY BELIEVER.
A church that do not do great commission becomes dead.
As a CHURCH WE OUGHT TO EDIFY ONE ANOTHER.
Ephesians 4: 11
So Christ himself gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the pastors and teachers, 12 to equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up.
As believers we need to fellowship together and the encourage each other to grow in the LORD.
As a church we help one another.
Acts 2:44-46
All the believers were together and had everything in common. 45 They sold property and possessions to give to anyone who had need. 46 Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts.
Acts 6;1-4
In those days when the number of disciples was increasing, the Hellenistic Jews[a] among them complained against the Hebraic Jews because their widows were being overlooked in the daily distribution of food. 2 So the Twelve gathered all the disciples together and said, “It would not be right for us to neglect the ministry of the word of God in order to wait on tables. 3 Brothers and sisters, choose seven men from among you who are known to be full of the Spirit and wisdom. We will turn this responsibility over to them 4 and will give our attention to prayer and the ministry of the word.”
As a church
we need to stand firm and KNOW THAT GOD IS WITH US.
THAT WE GROW AS A CHURCH THAT WILL SAY NOO TO EVIL.
THE CHURCH THAT WILL LOVE ON EACH OTHER.
