“Upon this rock I will build my church.” What was Jesus talking about when he said this in Matt.16-19?
This is the foundation of God's church. What is it?
It started when Jesus asked his disciples, “Who do men say that I am?” They said, “Some say that you are John the Baptist, some Elias, others Jeremiahs or one of the prophets.” And then Jesus said, “But who do you say that I am?”
And Peter answered and said, “Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.”
This is the foundation of “The Church!” There is but one invisible universal church which includes every Christian who makes this same confession no matter where they live, they are a part of the His church.
This is the foundation of the Success Church, anyone who calls upon the name of our lord Jesus Christ and seeks His kingdom.
Christianity is not a religion but a relationship with God. Religion is man’s study of God where Christianity is a relationship with God. Those who call upon the name of Jesus, God sends the Holy Spirit. A transformation takes place as he loves you, comforts you, and teaches all things.
Without this relationship with Jesus then Christianity becomes nothing more than a dead religion.
The Success Church celebrates life as you live it abundantly that God may be glorified.
