THE CHURCH: CHRIST IS THE CHURCH

(6 July 2008 by Carl A. Patton)

Greetings Brethren,

Peace be unto you. To the Church and believing Christians everywhere. As the Spirit descends upon me this Lord’s Day I see the Church.

There is a physical building and there is the heart. But where is Jesus in this picture? We pray that these words sent from Heaven will edify, uplift and bring comfort in peace to the brethren.

Gracious Lord we are grateful

and filled with thanks that

you inspired the great Prophets,

the Apostles to render in writing

the laws for the Church.

A building stood that housed

countless people and the people

who rivaled its stature sought to

build greater stones to house even

more people.

Soon many lies were told to

get the numerous often lost

people to fill up the great

auditoriums now called Churches.

The more tickets sold the greater

was the money changing.

Meanwhile even in the midst of

so many people and the great

emphasis on selling tickets there

was a remnant of the true Church.

They often were disturbed by the

Church goers as they looked to the Bible.

Looking and embracing John they

also leaned on the bosom of

Jesus. They felt his heart.

This was/is the Church. Can

You see life without Jesus?

Nor can you see the Church without

God and Christ.

I stood as John did. We pray that

you will also. There is no need for a

Revelation to the unseen to see

Jesus. The Revelation has already come.

Peace and Paradise Carl A. Patton a willing servant of our Savior Christ Jesus writing for the FreedomJournal 14 July 2008.
