Podcasts about biblical church

Acts 6:11-13 & Acts 7 From the beginning, Jesus' Church has been rooted in the Scriptures. This is seen no more clearly than in Stephen's biblical defense of the fledging Christian community in Acts 7. At bread, we aspire to be a Biblical church. This means, amongst other things, never reducing God to a particular geographical place; never reducing him to a man-made cause; never shirking the reality of our human sin and weakness; and always having our eyes fixed on Jesus. To be a Biblical church is not just about teaching and interpreting the Bible well, it's about having it written on our hearts - so that we, like Stephen, might look just like the Jesus whom the Scriptures reveal. By Ed Flint

How do we restore the Biblical church? The answer might surprise you. It turns out most people are missing a step. That step, it turns out, is family. But NOT the kind of family you're thinking of... The Biblical Household. God's idea of family is MUCH different than what most of us grew up with, and what we see in America today. In this episode, Jeremy unpacks the true path to restoring the Biblical Church by re-establishing the Biblical Household.

As Christians, not only must we boldly proclaim and hold fast to the good news of Jesus Christ, but we must also attend churches that embrace and proclaim the same message. In today's study, Tom explains why Jesus Christ and the good news of salvation is crucial for every church—and every individual Christian.

Why should a church have a high view of Jesus Christ and the gospel?

Every ministry of the church must ultimately be rooted in the truth of who Jesus is and what He accomplished.

A church that does not hold to the biblical Jesus and the biblical gospel is not a true church. In today's message, Pastor Tom explains why the gospel of Jesus Christ is one of the hallmarks of a biblical church.

What does it mean to have a biblical view of the church, and how do you identify differences between true and false churches?

According to the New Testament, it starts by regularly coming together for corporate worship on the Lord's day, as well as regularly observing the ordinances of believer's baptism and the Lord's table, two ordinances that Scripture commands faithful churches to administer.

A biblical view of the church means that the leadership intentionally structures church life to reflect what the Bible teaches. 

Today we come to the fourth hallmark, and it's how a biblical church intentionally structures church life to reflect what the Bible teaches. Friend, does your own church place a high priority on that? One that reflects what the Bible actually teaches?

If a church truly has a biblical view of man, it will teach that man's only hope is outside of himself in the person of Jesus Christ. 

As Tom will show us in today's study, a biblical understanding of man puts into perspective man's condition before a holy God: He is a wretched sinner, one who has rebelled and sinned against a holy God and is thus unable to save himself.

A biblical church understands and embraces what the Bible teaches about the nature of man, including his problems and their solutions.

The truth is that a biblical church understands and embraces what the Bible teaches about man: his nature, problems, and their solutions. While the culture continues to understand man through psychology and other philosophies, we, as Christians, must be committed to what the Bible says about man.

What does it mean to have a high view of Scripture, and how is it demonstrated in the life of a church?

In order for a church to be both biblical and spiritually healthy, it's essential they have a high view of God's Word. In other words, they must treat the Bible with the utmost respect as they would God Himself.

A biblical philosophy of ministry demands that the church has a high level of respect for the Bible. In fact, this is critical to the foundational purpose of the church's existence.

For a church to be a biblical church, they must affirm that the Bible is God-breathed, it is sufficient, and it speaks authoritatively for all of life, including how churches should conduct themselves.

Do you have a high view of God? Do you hallow God's name? Do you intentionally and faithfully set Him apart in your mind and actions on a daily basis?

On today's program, Tom Pennington demonstrates from Scripture that all biblical churches must have a high view of God—and their philosophy of ministry must flow from that commitment.

A biblical church must be captivated by the majesty and transcendency of the God of the Bible.

As leaders in Christ's church, we don't get to establish our own guiding principles. But rather, we must do exactly what Christ commands. In this series, we will discover several hallmarks that Scripture defines as essential to being a biblical church.

The Church has let the world influence it precisely because of what Paul warns about:Do not be deceived: “Bad company ruins good morals."The Church and the nations are reaping the harvest of sowing worldliness. This is something we need to put an immediate stop to, or we will reap destruction.

In this message, TA walks through Acts 2:42-47 and asks whether we want the fruit of the first-century church without the commitment that produced it. While many people desire joy, awe, and meaningful community, the early church experienced those things because they were wholeheartedly devoted. They were all in, together, and unwilling to settle for a convenient or casual version of church. The sermon calls us to stop expecting “pour over taste with Keurig effort” and instead commit ourselves fully to the kind of church God designed.
