IF WHAT`S HAPPENING WITHIN THOSE FOUR WALLS IS HAVING NO EFFECT ON THOSE STREETS THAT WE TRAVEL DOWN TO GET THERE, THEN MAYBE WE`RE MISSING THE POINT.
Har kollat IHeartRevolution och blivit aningen förkrossad över min egen likgiltighet.
"We have to see that the church doesn´t exist to meet our needs
but rather we exist, as the church, to meet the needs of others."
"Love acts and you can´t talk about love, you have to show love."
"His love was not cautios but extravagant.
He didn´t love in order to get something from us
but to give everything of himself to us.
Love like that."
(Ef 5:1-2)
"The church isn´t an organization. It´s not a denomination.
It was never designed to be a moral policeforce or political persuasion, nor a socail club for christians.
The church is the people. A people broken but for the grace of God. A people lost but for the love of Christ. They´re transcending the expanses of the earth and the vastness of culture. From town to town and from city to city, in every island and in every nation. In homes and in schoolhalls and in theatres, meeting in cafés and in cathedrals, on streetcorners and in stadiums, meeting undergrund and meeting under open skies. The body of Christ is being mobillized for such a time as this. Rising up with selfless faith, breaking down the four walls, beginning to see what He sees and beginning to be what He´s called us to be. We not just attend churc anymore. We are the church."
"The church exists for those outside it"
William Tyndale
