Speaker: Church Title: NCCF Church Sharing Date: 07-17-2016 Our Goal as Christians is this: To be an exact reflection of Jesus, the Son of God (Romans 8:29) We do this individually by growing in purity in our personal lives (1 John 3:2-3) We do this corporately by becoming fully functioning members of a local Church (Ephesians 4:11-16)
Summary
The speaker emphasizes the critical difference between possessing Bible knowledge in the head versus having it deeply rooted in the heart, which leads to genuine reality in life. He encourages the audience to move beyond mere intellectual agreement to actively desiring and living out God's will, using the analogy of learning a physical skill. Furthermore, he shares that understanding the Church as the Bride of Christ promotes mercy and acceptance of others' flaws because all believers are deeply loved and complete in Christ.
