Identity “Who are we?” “What are we supposed to do?”

The church …is the Lord’s (Matt 16:18; Eph 1:22-23) …glorifies God (John 15:7-8) …is the fullness of Christ (Eph 4:11-13). …preaches Christ’s authority (1 John 4:14; Acts 2:36- 38; Mark 16:15-16). …uses Scripture for the mission (2 Tim 3:16-17).

To know our identity in Christ & to press on toward the eternal glory in heaven  1 Peter 1:8-9  8 and though you have not seen Him, you love Him, & though you do not see Him now, but believe in Him, you greatly rejoice with joy inexpressible & full of glory, 9 obtaining as the outcome of your faith the salvation of your souls.
