The Purpose Of God's Church

The Purpose Of God's Church

 

Purpose in the Bible is the intention or plan that God has for the world and for each person. God's purpose is to transform people into the image of christ and He uses His body (the church/christians) to do so.

It is one of the greatest responsibilities we have because it involves people's eternity. Finding purpose involves identifying the values, passions, and goals that ignite our fire and give meaning to our actions.

It's the driving force behind our decisions and actions. The christian church was born through the power of the Holy Spirit. As we read through the book of Acts and the epistles of the New Testament we see a picture of the early church the way God intended it to be. Acts 2:42 says - They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. It was the Holy Spirit that gave life and purpose to these spirit filled believers then and He is still at work in His body (the church/christians) today. I pray that every christian would find their purpose and fulfill it through the empowering of the Holy Spirit.
