WHAT THE TRUE CHURCH IS

The true Church consists of God's people, those individuals who have place their personal faith in Jesus Christ for the remission of sins (John 1:12; John 3:16; Ephesians 5:23-27). Such individuals have "received the word" concerning Christ (Acts 2:41) and are referred to as members of the body of Christ, members of God's family, or simply as Christians. Within this true Church is the local church, which is an assembly of professed believers in the Lord Jesus Christ, who are mostly living together in the same general area. They meet together in His name for baptism, the Lord's supper, worship, praise, prayer, fellowship, testimony, the ministry of the Word, discipline, and the furtherance of the Gospel (Acts 13:1-4; Acts 20:7; I Corinthians 5:4-5; I Corinthians 14:26; Philippians 4:14-18; Hebrews 10:25; I Timothy 3:1-13; Titus 1:5).
