THE LORD’S CHURCH

It is the heart’s desire1 of the members of the Lord’s church2 to glorify God3 by living obediently4 to His5 every Word6, and strive7 to save the lost8 by teaching the soul-saving Gospel9 and living the light-shining example.10

1Matt 22:37 Jesus said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.”

Acts 11:23 When he came and had seen the grace of God, he was glad, and encouraged them all that with purpose of heart they should continue with the Lord.

Heb 10:22 Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.

21 Cor 12:12 For as the body is one and has many members, but all the members of that one body, being many, are one body, so also is Christ.

3Rom 15:6 That you may with one mind and one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Eph 3:21 To Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.

4Matt 5:16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.

Heb 5:9 And having been perfected, He became the author of eternal salvation to all who obey Him

John 14:15 “If you love Me, keep My commandments.”

5John 12:48 He who rejects Me, and does not receive My words, has that which judges him — the word that I have spoken will judge him in the last day.

6Matt 4:4 But He answered and said, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.'”

2 Cor 2:9 For to this end I also wrote, that I might put you to the test, whether you are obedient in all things.

7Heb 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.

2 Peter 1:10 Therefore, brethren, be even more diligent to make your call and election sure, for if you do these things you will never stumble.

8Luke 19:10 For the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost.”

1 Peter 2:21 For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that you should follow His steps.

9Eph 3:10 To the intent that now the manifold wisdom of God might be made known by the church to the principalities and powers in the heavenly places

Rom 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek.

10Matt 5:16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.

1 Peter 3:15 Sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear.
