The Purpose of the Church

He works on us in all sorts of ways. But above all, He works on

us through each other. [People] are mirrors, or carriers of

Christ to other [people]. Usually it is those who know Him that

bring Him to others. That is why the Church, the whole body of

Christians showing Him to one another, is so important. It is soeasy to think that the Church has a lot of different objects ed-

ucation, building, missions, holding services. ... The Church

exists for no other purpose but to draw [people] into Christ, to

make them little Christs. If they are not doing that, all the cathe-

drals, clergy, missions, sermons, even the Bible itself, are simply

a waste of time. God became man for no other purpose. It is

even doubtful, you know, whether the whole universe was creat-

ed for any other reason. C.S. Lewis

Pray for the unreached people of India.

Say it again

Two ladies were praising

the merits of their respective

preachers. One said, "Our

minister is so wonderful. He can

preach a dozen sermons from the

same text."

Her friend then responded,

"Why that's nothing. Our minister

is more wonderful still. He cantake any text in the Bible and

preach the same sermon from it!"

-Kenneth Foreman

Bible Quiz

Amos, a spokesman for the Lord, lived about

750 years before Christ. He wasnt a priest

and didnt serve in the Temple. Actually,

being a humble man, he didnt even considerhimself a prophet. He was a prophet, never-

theless. He spoke up for justice for the poor

and widows. He renounced the immoralactivities of many in Israel.

What word is omitted in this often-quotedstatement from Amos?

But let justice roll down like ________, and

righteousness like an ever-flowingstream (Amos 5:24, NRSV). Choose the cor-

rect word below to fill in the blank space.

A. thunderB. lava

C. pebblesD. waters
