The Purpose Of The Church

”And the LORD hath performed his word that he spake, and I am risen up in the room of David my father, and sit on the throne of Israel, as the LORD promised, and have built an house for the name of the LORD God of Israel. And I have set there a place for the ark, wherein is the covenant of the LORD, which he made with our fathers, when he brought them out of the land of Egypt.” | 1 Kings 8: 20-21

This was Solomon’s declaration concerning the temple he built, which is the purpose of the church.

The church (people of God) is the temple of God, wherein the Name of the Lord is proclaimed, worshipped and honored.

And it is the place where you will hear the gospel of Christ… Whom the Ark of the covenant represents.

This is the sole purpose of the church, the pillar and ground of the truth; to honor God and preach Christ and Him crucified.

Ye Are Saved!

”But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved).” | Ephesians 2:4-5

The happiest word in the Bible is the word “Saved.”

That man or woman who believes on the Lord Jesus Christ is saved. “Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10: 13)

But what does it mean to be saved by the grace of God through faith in Christ?

To be saved is to be Forgiven of all sin “In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;” (Ephesians 1: 7)

To be saved is to have Peace with God “Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:” (Romans 5: 1)

To be saved is to be Free from the curse of the law “Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:” (Galatians 3: 13)

To be saved is to be Free from all possibility of condemnation “There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.” (Romans 8: 1)

To be saved is to have Eternal life “And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.” (1 John 5: 11)

To be saved is to have the Spirit of Christ “But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.” (Romans 8: 9)

To be saved is to Own and acknowledge Christ as Lord “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.” (Romans 10: 9-10)

To be saved is to be In love with Jesus Christ “If any man love not the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be Anathema Maranatha.” (1 Corinthians 16: 22)

To Him That Overcometh

”Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.” | 2 Peter 1: 4

In the letters to the seven churches in Revelation 2 & 3 the Lord gives us some exceeding great and precious promises for us to enjoy right now and to enjoy for eternity.

Revelation 2: 7; “To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God.”

Revelation 2: 11; “He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death.

Revelation 2: 17; “To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it.

Revelation 2: 26-28; “And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations: And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father. And I will give him the morning star.

Revelation 3: 5; “He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.

Revelation 3: 12; “Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name.

Revelation 3: 21; “To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.”

How do we overcome the power of the devil and the evil of our sin against God; only by the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ? Revelation 12: 11; “And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.”

How do we overcome the evil of our sinfulness and unbelief in this life?

By faith in the Lord Jesus Christ; 1 John 5: 4-5; “For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith. Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?

Thanks be unto God for the victory we have in Christ! (Romans 8: 37-39; 1 Corinthians 15: 57)

Walking Uprightly?

”And the apostles and brethren that were in Judaea heard that the Gentiles had also received the Word of God. And when Peter was come up to Jerusalem, they that were of the circumcision contended with him, Saying, Thou wentest in to men uncircumcised, and didst eat with them.” | Acts 11: 1-3

What happens when men turn from Christ to the law?

It causes men to divide themselves from others based on some work they have performed in their flesh.

Peter is the one being contended with in our text, but on a different occasion it was Peter who turned to the law. “For before that certain came from James, he did eat with the Gentiles: but when they were come, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing them which were of the circumcision. And the other Jews dissembled likewise with him; insomuch that Barnabas also was carried away with their dissimulation. But when I saw that they walked not uprightly according to the truth of the gospel, I said unto Peter before them all, If thou, being a Jew, livest after the manner of Gentiles, and not as do the Jews, why compellest thou the Gentiles to live as do the Jews?” (Galatians 2: 12-14)

When James separated himself, look what effect it had on others; leading to Paul’s own travelling companion being carried away.

In Galatians 2: 14 Paul said that the group: “…walked not uprightly according to the truth of the gospel.” The table where Jew and Gentile ate together is a good symbol of the table of freedom in Christ who has freed the believer from the law so that we are one in Christ, we walk in his Spirit, under his grace, Christ governing the believer in the inner man in the spirit. Though these were Jewish believers come from James, yet in this example, the Jews table represents the works of the law. By moving to that table, Peter turned many of the Jewish brethren and even Barnabas from liberty at Christ’s Table to go sit at the table of the Law.

Why does Paul say, this is “not according to the truth of the gospel?’ As you read the following Scripture, pause and praying over each one as you go.

Mixing the law with grace:

“For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I make myself a transgressor.” (Galatians 2: 18) | Makes one a transgressor against God.

“I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.” (Galatians 2: 21) | Counts Christ death vanity.

“Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh?” (Galatians 3: 3) | Makes one think they are made perfect by the work of their flesh.

“For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.” (Galatians 3: 10) | Puts one under the curse of the law.

“For if the inheritance be of the law, it is no more of promise: but God gave it to Abraham by promise.” (Galatians 3: 18) | Claims God’s salvation to be by law instead of by promise.

“Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.” (Galatians 3: 24) | Claims justification to be by law instead of faith.

“There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.” (Galatians 3: 28) | Divides men, making men think their works make the difference between them and other men.

“I am afraid of you, lest I have bestowed upon you labour in vain.” (Galatians 4: 11) | Counts the work of God’s true messenger’s vanity.

“For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, the one by a bondmaid, the other by a freewoman. But he who was of the bondwoman was born after the flesh; but he of the freewoman was by promise. Which things are an allegory: for these are the two covenants; the one from the mount Sinai, which gendereth to bondage, which is Agar. For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children.” (Galatians 4: 22-25) | Makes one the son of the bondwoman, serving Mt. Sinai.

“But as then he that was born after the flesh persecuted him that was born after the Spirit, even so it is now.” (Galatians 4: 29) | Makes one a persecutor against believers who walk in the Spirit, not the law.

“Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.” (Galatians 5: 4) | Makes Christ of no effect unto men.

“And I, brethren, if I yet preach circumcision, why do I yet suffer persecution? then is the offence of the cross ceased.” (Galatians 5: 11) | Makes the offense of the cross to cease before men.

“But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another.” (Galatians 5: 15) | Makes church’s bite and devour one another.

“But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.” (Galatians 5: 18) | Makes one to be led by the law instead of the Holy Spirit.

“And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.” (Galatians 5: 24-25) | Makes one unable to crucify the flesh, to live in the Spirit and walk in the Spirit.

“For neither they themselves who are circumcised keep the law; but desire to have you circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh.” (Galatians 6: 13) | Causes self-righteousness which forces their misery on others so as to glory in the flesh instead of in Christ.

If the message preached, and the message you delight in, does not declare Christ to be the end of the law for righteousness, to be your Wisdom, Righteousness, Sanctification and Redemption, if the choice, the work, the wisdom, is left open-ended for you to perform without declaring that Christ alone works in the believer producing our fruit, then your delight is not Christ but in your choice, your work, and your wisdom.

Thus Paul said that turning from Christ to the flesh is to walk not uprightly according to the truth of the gospel.

The truth of the gospel is that Christ is the believer’s complete standing and acceptance with God both now and forever: “As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him: Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving. Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power: In whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ: Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead.” (Colossians 2: 6-12.)

Cause Of Contention

”And the apostles and brethren that were in Judaea heard that the Gentiles had also received the Word of God. And when Peter was come up to Jerusalem, they that were of the circumcision contended with him, Saying, Thou wentest in to men uncircumcised, and didst eat with them.” | Acts 11: 1-3

When God saves sinners it is a time of great rejoicing.

Yet, here the apostle Peter stands before his own brethren who contended with him because he went in to uncircumcised Gentiles and ate meat which had been forbidden in God’s law, “they that were of the circumcision contended with him”. They had the Lord’s word that God has an elect people among the Gentiles. The prophets clearly declared it.

The Lord told Abraham: “And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because thou hast obeyed my voice.” (Genesis 22: 18)

The Lord gave his word concerning Christ’s salvation of his elect among the Gentiles: “And he said, It is a light thing that thou shouldest be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the preserved of Israel: I will also give thee for a light to the Gentiles, that thou mayest be my salvation unto the end of the earth.” (Isaiah 49: 6)

Again we find the word of the Lord saying: “All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the LORD: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee.” (Psalm 22: 27)

Moreover, the Lord Jesus Christ had, in person, given clear instruction to the saints to preach to the Gentiles: “And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:” (Matthew 28: 18-19) Before his ascension the Lord told his disciples: “But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.”. (Acts 1: 8)

Still, they contended with Peter for going in to uncircumcised Gentiles and eating meat which had been forbidden in the law which God gave.

This is the sad result of what happens if we turn from Christ to the law.

They ceased to hear the Lord and looked back to the law he gave to shut sinners up to him.

As a result they made no mention of the fact that Cornelius and his household received Christ, the word of God. They did not rejoice in God’s grace; they did not rejoice in the fact that Christ was exalted; they did not rejoice in the fact that sinners were saved; they could find no joy in God and his grace because their minds were fixed in another direction. Their minds were consumed with Peter and the fact that he ate unclean animals forbidden by the law.

All they could see was Peter and the Law.

This is a good example of what the apostle Paul meant when he declared why he refused for Titus to be circumcised. “To whom we gave place by subjection, no, not for an hour; that the truth of the gospel might continue with you.” (Galatians 2: 5)

Every law of God, yes, every word of God is given to turn his elect people to his Son whom he has chosen to have the preeminence in all things.

God’s law declares man’s utter inability to keep it and Christ the Righteousness of God.

The law of the clean and unclean animals declares plainly that it is the LORD who is the sinner’s holiness who makes him the very cleanness of God.

Every word of reproof and exhortation the Holy Spirit moved the apostles to write, which the Spirit has preserved through the ages for the believer, is to shut our mouths from boasting of our walk and to point us to the faithfulness of Christ in whom believers are complete.

The Sinner And The Savior

”And one of the Pharisees desired him that he would eat with him. And he went into the Pharisee’s house, and sat down to meat.” | Luke 7: 36

A people hungering after righteousness and a preacher anxious to feed their souls will act in sweet harmony with each other when their common subject is Jesus Christ the Lord.

The Necessity Of The Husband’s Glory

”And in that day seven women shall take hold of one man, saying, We will eat our own bread, and wear our own apparel: only let us be called by thy name, to take away our reproach.” | Isaiah 4: 1

It is improper for the bride to propose to the man.

Merely taking his name does not constitute a marriage. If her reproach will be taken away, Christ the GodMan must draw his bride in cords of love, unite himself to her in a holy, unbreakable union, and provide all her needs.

God created one wife for his beloved Son. She is the church made up of his elect people out of every nation on this earth. God espoused this bride to one husband, even Christ Jesus his own Son. He is her All and she is his all.

First, the full provision Christ bestows upon his bride is found in his name which he gives her.

The maiden name of a sinner is that of our father Adam. Our maiden name is a name of reproach, of disobedience to God, a name which declares we are dead in trespasses and in sins. But Christ gives his bride his name and his name declares her reproach is taken away by him. “In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely: and this is his name whereby he shall be called, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS.” (Jeremiah 23: 6) “In those days shall Judah be saved, and Jerusalem shall dwell safely: and this is the name wherewith she shall be called, The LORD our righteousness.” (Jeremiah 33: 16)

Secondly, the name of Righteousness given to his bride declares that Christ has fully met every requirement of a faithful husband.

Concerning the responsibility of the husband the law states, If he take him another wife; her food, her raiment, and her duty of marriage, shall he not diminish.

Christ shall never take another bride as sinful men do, for he has everlastingly loved the bride betrothed to him by his Father. Christ is her Food (Life) and thus Christ’s bride shall never be found begging bread. Christ is her raiment of Righteousness thus she is arrayed in the finest garment. Christ the Son of God unites himself intimately with her, which scripture terms the “the duty of marriage”, by making himself one with her nature that he might make her one with his nature.

“For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones. For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church.” (Ephesians 5: 30-32)

“For both he that sanctifieth and they who are sanctified are all of one: for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren,” (Hebrews 2: 11)

“Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage. For verily he took not on him the nature of angels; but he took on him the seed of Abraham.” (Hebrews 2: 14-16)

“And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them.” (Ezekiel 36: 27)

“According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.” (2 Peter 1: 3, 4)

“But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you. Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.” (Romans 8: 9-12)

The marriage is about much more than the bride’s reproach being taken away, it is about Christ’s glory in being a true and faithful Husband. Christ is that glorious Husband thus the reproach of his bride is forever removed.

Able To Save

”He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God; And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform. And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness.” | Romans 4: 20-22

“Able to save” means something more than just delivering men from hell.

“Able to save” is the whole work of salvation from the first conviction of sin to complete glorification.

Christ is not only “able to save” those who repent, but He is able to make men repent.

Christ is not only “able to save” those who believe, but He is able to give a new heart and work faith in men.

Christ is not only “able to save” those who continue in the faith, but He is able to keep us from falling and give us a holy desire to be like Him.

The Salvation Of God

”Let people serve thee, and nations bow down to thee: be lord over thy brethren, and let thy mother’s sons bow down to thee: cursed be every one that curseth thee, and blessed be he that blesseth thee.” | Genesis 27: 29

God’s salvation is infinitely immense.

Usually when we think of being saved, we think of the punishment we are saved from. And that certainly is a blessing of infinite value. “There is therefore now no condemnation to them that are in Christ Jesus.”

We also think of the state of blamelessness we have before the law of God because of our justification. “Who shall lay anything to the charge of God’s elect: it is God that justifieth.” That is another blessing of infinite value. But the immenseness of this salvation goes farther.

It is said in Hebrews 13: 10 that we are “partakers of His holiness” and 2 Peter 1: 4 says we are “partakers of the divine nature.” This is a breathtaking concept.

What a salvation!

Not only will I not be punished for my sins, but I am not in a state of guilt before God.

Not only am I not in a state of guilt before God, the word of God declares that I am a partaker of His holiness and very nature!

God’s salvation is infinitely immense.

Perhaps we will get a glimpse when we stand before God perfectly conformed to the image of His Son.

Until then, we just believe!

Business As Usual

”But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.” | Matthew 24: 37-39

Our Lord Jesus Christ speaking of His second coming in Matthew 24: 37-39 informs us that men and women will be found just like they were in the days of Noah.

Before God sent His flood of wrath and judgment people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage. In other words, they were conducting business as usual. Men and women gave no thought to the Eternal One, nor to eternity “until the flood came and took them ALL away, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.”

Lost sinner, it will be no different when Christ comes to earth again.

Men and women will be conducting business as usual, giving no thought or consideration to their eternal souls. However, by the grace of God, there will be (as it was in the days of the flood) a remnant of chosen sinners saved.

All who were in God’s Ark in Noah’s day, found secure refuge.

All today who are found in God’s Ark, the Lord Jesus Christ, will also be saved from the eternal wrath of God to come. “And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come.” (1 Thessalonians 1: 10)

Who does God shut up in the Ark of Safety? Like Noah, only those who have found grace in the eyes of the Lord! “But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.” (Genesis 6: 8)

Has this amazing grace found you, or is it business as usual with you?
