    What Is the Purpose of the Church?

    Understanding WHY Jesus built a Church means understanding WHAT that Church was intended to do. The Bible shows us that the Church is a community—intimately connected with God’s plan for the human race and tasked with spreading the gospel message to the world. But the purpose of the Church points far beyond this physical life and into the next—and it has everything to do with YOUR purpose too.   Presented by Phil Sandilands.   CHAPTERS 0:00 Why a Church? 0:37 What’s an ekklesia? 2:49 The purpose of the Church 4:55 In the image of God 6:39 How a mortal puts on immortality 8:31 In the meantime 10:22 The ongoing harvest 11:29 A community connected in Christ 14:41 The Church that will not die   FEATURED RESOURCES 📕 “Where Is the Church Jesus Built?”: https://info.lifehopeandtruth.com/where-is-the-church-jesus-built   📕 “The Mystery of the Kingdom”: https://info.lifehopeandtruth.com/the-kingdom-of-god    📕 “The World to Come: What It Will Be Like”: https://info.lifehopeandtruth.com/world-to-come-booklet   🎞️ “Do We Go to Heaven When We Die?”: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AQR5XqHbATQ   OTHER HELPFUL LINKS 🎧 Listen to LHT Presents in your favorite podcast player: https://lhtpresents.lifehopeandtruth.com/ 💭 Life, Hope & Truth Learning Center: https://lifehopeandtruth.com/learning-center/ 👤 Who we are: https://lifehopeandtruth.com/who-we-are/ 🌍 Church of God, a Worldwide Association: https://cogwa.org/   HASHTAGS #bible #biblestudy #christian #christianliving #religion #apologetics   All Scripture quotations, unless otherwise indicated, are taken from the New King James Version (© 1982 by Thomas Nelson, Inc.).
