What is the church?

Centuries of tradition lead people to think of a building or a denomination or an organization.

Looking into the New Testament, we see many pictures that clarify this question for us.        
One is the picture of a family (1 Timothy 3:15).  Those who have built their lives on Jesus (Matthew 7:24) are together to share our lives in faith for encouragement (Hebrews 10:23-25) and support (Galatians 6:2).  We laugh together, sorrow together, and help each other become the best that we can.         
Another picture is of a body (1Corinthians 12:27) with Jesus as the head.  So as Jesus’ body, the church is to be doing the things He did---teaching God’s way and helping those in need.
A third picture of the church is that of a temple (Ephesians 2:19-22).  In Old Testament times, people felt close to God in a special way when they were at the Temple. Today, the church is to do the same.

Visitors and questions are always welcome.
