Christian Community: Part 6

Christian Community: Part 6

Sharing One Another’s Beliefs, Thinking, and Spirituality

Over the summer, we will look at nine different practices of the Christian Community found in Scripture.  I'll talk about some of them, but I mainly want you to look up the Scripture passages and answer the application questions below.  But...that's just the start.  After answering the application questions, go do it.  Put it into practice in our Christian community.

Christian Community

First, what is the Christian community?

  1. The people of God—those who are created by faith through his gospel.  A Christian community consists of those who have repented and believed and have a shared experience of the gospel, a message of God's grace to sinners through his Son, Jesus.

  2. The body of Christ - those who are members of one another, united in his eternal life.  A Christian community consists of people who deliberately share life together.

  3. The fellowship of the Spirit -  A Christian Spirit-filled community is an alternative society that models distinctive ways to do everything in life—a present, living model of his future.

Practice 6 - sharing one another’s beliefs, thinking, and spirituality

  • Colossians 3:16

  • Ephesians 5:19

  • Romans 12:16

  • 1 Corinthians 1:10


Application:
How does our community share one another's beliefs, thinking, and spirituality?  How do you share your beliefs, thinking, and spirituality with your church family?  Can you think of ways to put these passages into practice during the week?

Together in this Christ community with you,
