The Uniter and Builder

1. The Uniter and Builder

Ephesians 2:18-22 (ESV)
18  For through him we both have access in one Spirit to the Father. So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God,   built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone,  in whom the whole structure, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord.   In him you also are being built together into a dwelling place for God by the Spirit.
 
Listen to me very, very carefully- When you are considering a church this is not the question to ask : What can they offer me? What do they have for the children, the youth, etc. ?
Here is the question you should ask: What can I offer to the church? How can I serve in the church to help build it, to help unify it.
 
First You should pray, ask God is this where you want me to serve? Too many people go shopping for a church and see which one they like the best. When you unite with a church you become part of that Body , for however time God so chooses.
