In this episode Tim continues the study on The Church, looking at how the bible defines “Church,” and understanding its marks and characteristics.
As discussed in the first episode the Church in one sense, is the community of all genuine believers for all of time (including the genuine believers of the Old Testament, now enrolled in heaven. See Hebrews 12:22,23).
There seems to be another way that the term “church” is used in scripture, and that is to describe specifically the gathering or assembling of believers for specific purposes. But what makes a church gathering “church?” What about Christian work places, missions organizations, or other casual gatherings? Should we consider these church? Or are there specific characteristics that help us to recognize a genuine organized church?
Tim discusses this narrower definition of “church” and unpacks Acts 2:42-47, focusing on the first recorded expression of church in the bible.
Thanks for listening and stay tuned for more episodes to come!
