A Sound Doc!

We had a great weekend here at Evangelistic Temple as I taught the first part of "What does a Healthy Church look like?" I shared my thoughts that a Healthy church must teach a sound doctrine!!! This thought comes from Titus 2:1 where the Apostle Paul encouraged his young, minister apprentices to teach the complete teachings of Christ! I re-ensured our congregants that as we move forward and continue to bring change to the church that we are anchored by the doctrine that Jesus is the center of our (churches) existence. We must keep him first.

Good, sound doctrine begins and ends with Christ. In Revelation 21:6 the scripture supports this thought, "And he said to me, "It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. To the thirsty I will give from the spring of the water of life without payment." As our church continues to grow into the healthy-church that God has for us - we are more committed than ever to keep Christ the center of our existence! There may be non-essential beliefs that churches and church members disagree on, but we must be in unison on the premise that Christ is Lord of our lives, families, and churches!!!
