God changes us through us. And he does this because...We don’t see clearly on our own...We aren’t complete on our own...We won’t make it on our own.
If you are to truly change and experience life with God, then you must see the church as a people indwelt with the Holy Spirit whom God has appointed and positioned in your life to love you, serve you, correct you, challenge you, exhort you, and bless you in your pursuit of true change with God.
There is no life with God apart from life with his people.
We have not simply been personally redeemed. We have been collectively received together into Christ’s body, into God’s forever family, and into the kingdom that is eternal.
