If It Is The Lord’s Church…

[131 words]

…then shouldn’t He determine how one enters it?

…then shouldn’t He regulate how it should worship?

…then shouldn’t He decide who should be qualified to be its leaders?

…then shouldn’t He govern what it should do?

…then shouldn’t He ascertain who are faithful members?

And do you know what? It is and He has. It’s the Lord’s church, He has the right to say how it operates. And He has – in His Word. Let’s endeavor to do everything we can to make sure we are an active part of the Lord’s church.

“And He [God] put all things under His [Jesus’] feet, and gave Him to be head over all things to the church, which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all” (Eph. 1:22-23).
