    What we have here is a perfect balance. Sometimes a church will put all emphasis in one direction and doesn’t balance out.

    Edified and multiplied. Acts 9:31. 08/22/04 When you study the book of Acts, what you see is the progress of the church. You find the birth and the development of the New Testament church. As we read along in this wonderful book we find what the church is to be about. We get snapshots and ...read more

     | 6,424 views

    The purpose of the church is to become: 1. A Faith-centered community. 2. A God-centered community 3. A World-centered community.
