EVERY BELIEVER MUST BE CONNECTED

The New Testament assumes that every believer is part of a local church.

The New Testament explicitly commands that every believer be part of a local church.

Hebrews 10:24-25

The New Testament commands assume that every believer is part of a local church.

Rom 12:10; Gal 6:1-2; Col 3:12-13; Heb 3:12-13

Why is it so important that every believer be part of a local church?

1 Corinthians 12:12-13, 15-21, 26

  • When we become a Jesus follower, we are united to his body.
    • I need the church.
    • The church needs me.
  • Every part is part of the body.
  • The body needs every part.
  • Every part needs the body.

Every believer must be closely connected to other believers.
