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.
