What is the True Church?  

Why Join a Church?

 

Remember this: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously. Each man should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.
(Bible, 2 Corinthians 9:6, 7)

Why Belong To A Church?

Because You Can Serve God Better in the Church

When you are baptized in water and join a church, this is a good testimony to others as well as an act of obedience and dedication to God.

You serve God also by giving to His cause. You can do this best through a church. It administers the money carefully, paying the expenses for taking the gospel to the local community and to many other places. Because someone gave, you heard the gospel. Because you give, others hear and are saved.

 

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.
(Bible, Hebrews 10:25)

 

For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
(Bible, Ephesians 6:12)

Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes.
(Bible, Ephesians 6:10, 11)

 

Endure hardship with us like a good soldier of Christ Jesus.
(Bible, 2 Timothy 2:3)

 

 

You have many opportunities for Christian service in the church: praying, witnessing, giving out literature, singing, teaching, preaching, taking others to church. Even your faithful attendance pleases God and encourages others.

What's Happening To The Church?

Twenty Centuries of Warfare

Ever since Jesus Christ founded His church, Satan has been fighting against it. The church is battling to rescue souls from his lies and deceptions.

Satan's Strategy and Weapons

Satan tries to separate Christians from Christ so that he can defeat the church. His main strategies are persecution, deception, and temptation.

He uses people to persecute and kill Christians. He infiltrates the church with false teachers and blinds some of its leaders with unbelief. He tempts Christians to sin so that they become weak and powerless. He tries to make them doubt God and neglect their relationship with Him.

The Church's Strategy and Weapons

Our defense is to stay in touch with our Commander in Chief, the Lord Jesus Christ. Our main weapons are prayer, faith, and the Word of God. The Holy Spirit, who is stronger than Satan, gives us the strength and power to defeat him.

The Victory of the Church

Through the ages persecution has purified the church and made it grow. The Holy Spirit has sent waves of revival to deliver her from sin and false teachings. We may have to suffer now, but soon the war will be over. Satan will be defeated, and the church will reign forever with Christ.

Your Part in It All

In this war every Christian is a soldier.
