Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Jun 3, 2019

Stop building churches where there is already a good work in place! No need for fifteen churches of like faith within twenty miles of each other. We are wasting God's gifts and manpower and giving reason for the enemies of God to blaspheme.

Jesus Delivers His Church

Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Jan 28, 2021

In his church, the Lord Jesus is still doing the good work that He has begun, and He is doing it unstoppably.

Beloved in Christ, I’d be worried if the church was a human effort. If it was up to us alone to defend the church, maintain her unity, or increase her numbers, we’d have reason to be concerned.
