    Contributed by Robert Webb on Sep 15, 2025
     | 224 views

    As Christians we seek out a congregation with which to work and worship.

    The church “universal” is composed of all members of the church of Christ from all over the world, United States, Africa, In and etc.. It is impossible for an eldership to oversee every Christian in the world. Therefore, God designed the local congregation. The local congregation consists of ...read more

    In this sermon, we examine six different approaches to evangelism and how to be engaged in them. (Much from this sermon comes from Hybils’ Becoming A Contagious Christian, chapter 9)

    Introduction: A. One day a five-year old boy ran to answer the telephone, and answering it said, “Hello.” 1. A woman asked him, “Is your mother home?” 2. “Yes,” the boy replied, “but she’s changing the baby’s diaper and can’t come to the ...read more

    The biblical teaching of union with Christ makes a huge impact, not only on how we see the ministry of evangelism, but also how we should regard both our fellow believer and those who have not yet been born into the family of God.

    Saving The Local Church And Pastor From Extinction. Series

    Contributed by Jan Oosthuizen on Aug 18, 2019
     | 3,460 views

    More and more people are leaving local institutional churches and pick and choose their spiritual diet on social media. Evangelism, and belonging to a local body of believers is on the increasing decline!

    When the smallest cell in the body is under attack, it brings the demise of the whole. For as long as I can remember, there has always been a tension between the local church pastor and the staff of parachurch organisations. Parachurch organisasions work outside and across denominations to ...read more

    What Difference Does Church Attendance Make?

    There are three times in Hebrews 10:19-25, that the Hebrew writer uses the phrase, “let us,” to appeal to the local congregation about being steadfast in their attendance to the local assembly or church.

    One of the greatest tragedies of the 21st Century in America is the realism that millions of people who claim to know Jesus Christ rarely attend a local church or participate in the worship services. In so many of the American churches, a lot of people basically attend three times in their entire ...read more
