What’s Our Purpose as the Church?

I ended last week’s sermon looking at Colossians 3:17 – And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him. This is a call to the Christian church to get out and be active no matter where we are, or what God has called us to. We do this in a posture of thanksgiving, knowing that God wants to use us no matter where we are, what line of work we are in or if we’re in school. Our Christian life should not be divided into compartments of sacred and secular, areas that are for God and areas that are for us. Everything is to be for God! And if an area in your life doesn’t line up with who He is then perhaps it’s time for a change.

This Sunday we’ll end off our series on the church by looking at what our ultimate purpose as the church is. Here’s a hint, it has a lot to do with Colossians 3:17. To help you prepare for this Sunday read through Ephesians 4-5:21.
