"And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it." (Matt 16:18 KJV)
While many voices exist that argue the contrary, "The Church" as an organism and organization; individual and institution, is still relevant today. What God through Jesus Christ establishes, man cannot nullify. In spite of what it may look like, what it has been through, and though many have brought reproach against it, "The Church" yet stands and is not merely surviving, but thriving! Look out hell, you cannot, will not, and shall not prevail against it!
PRAYER: Lord, thank you for your church! Thank you for making us a part of the organism and the organization. Continue building it as you see fit and may we be a help and not a hindrance. Amen!
Heb 10:23-25. . . .Let's keep a firm grip on the promises that keep us going. He always keeps his word. Let's see how inventive we can be in encouraging love and helping out, not avoiding worshiping together as some do but spurring each other on, especially as we see the big Day approaching.
