1 THE IDEAL CHURCH Matt. 16:18-19 And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven."
2 Matt. 16: Ug sultihan ko ikaw, nga ikaw mao si Pedro, ug sa ibabaw niining bato pagatukoron ko ang akong iglesia, ug ang mga gahum sa kamatayon dili gayud makabuntog kaniya. 19 Ug hatagan ko ikaw sa mga yawi sa gingharian sa langit, ug bisan unsay imong pagabugkoson dinhi sa yuta, didto sa langit pagailhon kini nga binugkos; ug bisan unsay imong pagaluagan dinhi sa yuta, didto sa langit pagailhon kini nga linuagan."
3 WHAT IS A CHURCH?
4
5 Called out ones THE CHURCH A group of people called out from the world to serve the Living God Grupo sa mga katawhan nga gikuha gikan sa kalibutan aron moaalagad sa buhi nga Dios.
6 THE CHURCH IS 1. Is made up of those who have had their sins forgiven because of the shed blood of Jesus at Calvary -( Re.1:5; 7:14) 2. All the believers in the world are called the CHURCH ( Matthew 16:18) where 2 or 3 are gathered in Jesus Name, He is there
7 THE LOCAL CHURCH AND THE UNIVERSAL CHURCH The scripture make a distinction between the local church and the universal church. All people who believe in Jesus for salvation are a part of the universal church. But unless they join themselves to a local body of believers (in local church), it is difficult to conceive / comprehend what membership in the Universal church means.
8 THE LOCAL CHURCH AND THE UNIVERSAL CHURCH Example of local church: Paul wrote to local church in Galatia- who had specific leaders (Romans 16:1,5) Jesus too addressed local assemblies, pointing out their specific needs as a body. (Re 2,3)
9 THE LOCAL CHURCH AND THE UNIVERSAL CHURCH In the local church: These local believers gather together regularly (Hebrews 10:25) for: WORSHIP PRAYER, TEACHING, and FELLOWSHIP (Acts 2:42-47)
10 THE LOCAL CHURCH AND THE UNIVERSAL CHURCH Only then can they truly understand what it is to be true members of the Universal Church- made up of people from every tribe, tongue and nation. (Re 5:10)
11 THE IDEAL CHURCH SOME DESCPRIPTION OF AN IDEAL CHURCH 1. An Ideal church has a Vision, Mission & Core Values 2. An Ideal church functions according to the principles of the bible 3. An Ideal church influences
12 LWMI VISION, MISSION & CORE VALUES
13
14 PROVERBS 29:18 Where there is no vision, the people perish.. KJV Where there is no vision, the people cast off restraint ASV
15 VISION (seeing as God wants us to see) is important for the people of God. It is through vision that we know where we are going.
16 Without vision, a church will end up in a maintenance program maintaining the status quo. This results in a church going nowhere.
17 As God s people, we need VISION. We need to see the greatness of God and what is ours in Christ, but not simply for our own strokes or personal blessing. We need to see the world as God sees it. We need to see where our responsibilities lie as members of the body of Christ.
18 VISION STATEMENT It inspires us. It is seeing as God wants us to see. It states about our dreams. It reminds us where we are going. It causes us to see our responsibilities as members of the Body of Christ.
19 Four Characteristic of Vision CLEAR INSPIRING CHALLENGING PICTURE OF THE FUTURE
