Recent teaching: the church - The Building, The body, the bride

The Bible uses three terms to describe the Church. The Church is a building that exist for the habitation of God by His Spirit. It is one body but many members with different functions. Each believer is set in the body with gifts and the grace to serve.

The purpose of this congregation is to be a ‘people of God’ congregating for the sole purpose of creating a habitation for God’s presence to dwell on the earth and touching people’s lives to change the world.
