Yep, the true church, whether down the two-track lane or otherwise and only five folks, is the one preaching Christ as Lord and Savior.
AND who we are in Him. One without the other is only a history lesson.
I've yet to meet a person who wasn't in Him and could stand to sit through much preaching of Christ as the One and Only Lord & Savior.
Our longtime minister of nearly a quarter century just retired our congregation and helped a new man transition in. His last official act as our senior pastor was this past Friday when he married my oldest daughter to a fine young man who he helped to lead to the Lord several years ago.
He is one who talks the talk so as to make anyone with a heart for Christ weep, and who walks the walk in such a way as to make the same man want to follow. All while admitting he has a long way to continue on the road to Zion.
What a blessing such men are to Christ's Church.
Brother Keith said it well; if you haven't found it don't stop searching. The community of believers in which the Lord has planted me has done more than words can say in helping me in my pilgrimage through this life.
