Subject: Who constitutes the church? |
Bible Note: Lionheart, Thank you for your answer, (1Cor.12) Is more about how the body is to function, and about the gifts of the Spirit. Jesus said, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand: (Matt.12:25). We are divided, and have been for along time. According to what Jesus said in this verse, WE, all of the Denominations, are doomed to failure, desolation. Knowing this, why do the denominations refuse to fellowship together. Why is there no one denomination to define the body? My question was: "Who constitutes the church? Body of Christ? With all of the different churches, religions, denominations". I asked it the way I did because, that's all we know. Every Denomination, Espouses the Truth, but it is the Truth as they see it to be. It really Hurts, Greaves my spirit, to see the divisions MAN has created. They weren't created out of Love for the Brethren, they came about mostly because of Pride. Sorry to get on the soapbox.
