As we look at the scriptures, we know that the church had nothing to do with the building but it was the people, the lovers of God, the followers of Christ. These are the people who are trying to put their faith into practice. The ones who are helping and serving others in love. The ones walking with Christ and trying to constantly learn from him. This is what the church is about.
1 Thess. 1:3 Paul says, “ For we remember before our God and Father how you put your faith into practice, how your love motivates you to serve others, and how unrelenting is your hope-filled patience in our Lord Jesus Christ.” Now that is the church!
