Have we truly grasped the Biblical concept of "church"? Derived from the Greek "ekklesia", many wonder if our current understanding aligns with the Scriptures. In ancient Greece, "ekklesia" signified a gathering of citizens, not strictly religious. When Jesus said, "I will build My church" (Matthew 16:18), He referred not to a physical building but to a spiritual assembly united in faith.
The early apostles viewed the ekklesia as a vibrant community of believers, emphasizing relationships, discipleship, and communal worship over location. Yet, over time, "church" became more synonymous with places than people. Today, there's a growing desire to revisit the essence of the ekklesia, moving beyond structures to genuine community.
In this video, we'll explore:
The depth of communal worship beyond mere songs.
Discipleship's role in a thriving ekklesia.
Fostering community in today's individualistic world.
Join us to rediscover the ekklesia's true nature, emphasizing relationships over rituals. Dive deep into Biblical truths, and don't forget to like, share, and subscribe for more enlightening content.
