"The local church is the authority on earth that Jesus has instituted to officially affirm and give shape to my Christian life and yours." Pg.24--Church Membership by Jonathan Leeman

You have a choice:

  • Sit on the sidelines, show up when you feel like it.
  • or commit to being the church God has called us to be.

I will show up

From the standpoint of the Christian, church membership isn't voluntary...once you choose Christ, you choose his people to...it's a package deal!

Jesus is Saviour and Lord!

Foundation of the Church:

Jesus' Identity as God

Jesus' resurrection from the dead

BIG IDEA:

Series Theme:

I don't just go to church I am the church

I Will Show up to worship God and build community with others

Membership Matters:

  • Part of something bigger than ourselves
  • bible teaches community
  • you need it...kingdoms have kings that rule

Our Response to Who Jesus is:

  • Repent=change way of thinking...Reverse, Reverse...Direction
  • Get Baptized=publicly identifying with Jesus
  • This is for everyone!

Saved from sin...saved to community

Heb.10:25

Let us not give up meeting together as some are in the habit of doing, but let us encourage one another, and all the more as you see the day approaching.

Devoted=to continue to do something with intense effort.

Church…not just something you do…it's something you are...but its believers in Jesus…connected by salvation and baptism and membership…

Together:

  • They=4 times
  • Everyone filled with awe
  • all believers were together
  • Together--3 times
  • Their--3 times

Devoted to:

  • Learning about Jesus and worshiping Him.
  • Fellowship--or community...loving each other!
