The Only Family That Will Last

We start with God Made Everything! He invented the universe because He wanted a family to love and to share His glory. God is love!

God wanted family. Do you know that His family here on earth is the Church? Jesus didn’t say I will build a nation, or a business. He said I will build my church.

Jesus says I will build my church and the powers of Hell will not defeat it. The most successful human movement of all time. The only thing on planet earth that will last is God’s family.

4 Specific Things The Church Is:

1. God’s Family on Earth and In Heaven

2. God’s Family Is Composed Of Saved and Baptized Believers

3. God’s Family Are People Who Are Committed To Jesus and To Each Other

4. In God’s Family We Are Preparing For Christ’s Return

Benefits O Being Part Of God’s Family:

1. In God’s Family: I Learn My True Identity

2. In God’s Temple: I’m Supported By Others

3. In Christ’s Body: I Discover My Unique Value

4. In God’s Flock: I Receive Protection

5. In God’s Garden: I Become Productive
