Truly Community
September 14/15, 2019
This week, we continue in the series “Roots” by exploring what it means to be God’s Community, the Church. Pastor Matt uses Acts 2:42, 46, and 4:32 as an example of how we should format our lives within the body of the church.
The early believers, it says, were “one in heart and mind” (Acts 4:32). There was an essential unity within this group of believers, which we refer to with the word ‘community’ today. This theme recurs throughout the New Testament, from Jesus’ teaching through the koinonia teaching of St. Paul and the “one another” statements in 1 John to the heavenly picture of Revelation 7:9-10. At Eastbrook we often talk about “becoming 7,” “living in the tension,” and “being friends.” This is who we are and who we are becoming.
