Members That Strengthen Ephesians 4:16

Importance of Local church Acts 9:26 – 1 Corinthians 12:12-14 – 1 Timothy 3:15 For the local church to be all that it should be every member must be active and participating in the work being done. I am either a strength or a weakness.

Those That Strengthen Attend all assemblies – Hebrews 10:24,25 – Actions of some say we should “close the doors” Truly committed to the work – No “at-large” membership – If right for one then right for all

Those That Strengthen Zealous – Revelation 3:16-19 – Show concern for what is taught or practiced – Worship “in spirit” Sacrificial givers – 1 Corinthians 16:2 – 2 Corinthians 8:5; 9:7

Those That Strengthen Love not the world – 1 John 2:15 – Not just shown in avoiding things that are wrong Optimistic – Philippians 1:12; 4:13

What Must I Do To Be Saved? Hear the gospel (Romans 10:17) Believe Jesus is Christ (Acts 8:37) Repent of your sins (Acts 17:30) Confess faith in Christ (Matthew 10:32) Baptized for remission of sins (Acts 2:38) Faithful unto death (Revelation 2:10)
