I Like Church, But… 3 of 3

I Like Church, But… 3 of 3

Matthew 16:18 NLT… Now I say to you that you are Peter (which means ‘rock,’) and upon this rock I will build my church, and all the powers of hell will not conquer it.

Introduction: The church of Jesus Christ is both an organism and an organization, that must accentuate the positive and eliminate the negative.

Transition: As Jesus inches close to death, he decides to retreat with his disciples to make sure that they understood the mission, and to secure their role in the movement.

Exposition: I like church, but I hope it anticipates a great future but it actually has one but doesn’t act like it!

–Strong Word (I say)

–Superior Construction (my church)

–Sure Promise (will not)

Conclusion: This goal of trilogy has been to educate, empower, and encourage you to allow God’s spirit to be at work in your life to build what only God can.
